    Yes, students who have completed a BTech degree from one of the IITs with a CGPA of 8.0 and above can apply without a GATE score. However, any student who has graduated from any other institute, college, or university must have a valid GATE score to be considered for M.Tech admissions at IIT Madras.

  • For IIT Madras M.Tech admission, candidates need to qualify GATE entrance exam. IIT Madras only admits GATE-qualified students for this course. Graduate Aptitude Test in Engineering or GATE is an online national-level examination conducted for admission to Master of Engineering (ME) and Masters in Technology (MTech) courses, among others. The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur will conduct the GATE 2024 exam. Candidates seeking admission to IIT Madras M.Tech course must appear for GATE exam which will be held between February 3, 2024 and February 11, 2024. 

  • MTech admission at IIT Madras is primarily based on GATE scores, followed by COAP counselling. However, as per the basic eligibility criteria mentioned on the official website of IIT Madras, getting admission at the institute without qualifying for the GATE entrance exam is possible. For this, candidates must have a BTech degree from one of the IITs, with a minimum CGPA of 8.0 (on a scale of 10). Such candidates can directly apply for MTech admission through the official IIT Madras website. These applications are then reviewed by the respective departments before taking the final admission decision.
