    You cannot get admission to VIT University's B.Tech programme without appearing for VITEEE. This exam is mandatory for all candidates who wish to join the programme, and Higher Secondary Board, JEE Main/SAT scores will not be considered. The good news is that VITEEE is conducted for admission to multiple campuses of VIT University, including Vellore, Chennai, Bhopal, and Amravati, so candidates have a wider choice of courses and campuses to choose from.
