    Joining IIT Madras without JEE Mains/ Advanced scores is possible only if the student is applying for a course other than BTech. Since IIT Madras' BTech admissions are done based on JEE only. However, for courses like MBA, MTech, and MSc the institute accepts other national-level exams like CAT, GATE, IIT JAM, etc. followed by counselling process and other selection rounds (if applicable).

  • For Bachelor of Technology (BTech) programs, JEE Main and then JEE Advanced are mandatory for admission into IIT Madras.

    However, IIT Madras offers some programs that don't require JEE. These include:

      • BSc in Data Science (Online):It allows students with a 10th-grade level math background to apply. There's no entrance exam, but there's a qualifier process after applying.
      • M.Sc., M.Tech., M.Phil., Ph.D., and other postgraduate programs: typically require entrance exams specific to the field of study, such as GATE for M.Tech. or JAM for M.Sc. You can find details on the specific entrance exam required for each programme on the IIT Madras webs
