No, GATE scores are not compulsory for admissions to the M.Tech course at NIELIT Calicut. The institute also offers admissions to those students who have not appeared in GATE. The unfilled GATE seats will first be filled with NON-GATE candidates from Kerala state based on the nativity certificate. If seats are still remaining vacant, candidates from other states will be considered for admission.
Moreover, the institute also allocates 5 seats to each M.Tech branch for sponsored category students. However, apart from all these aspects, applicants with GATE scores are considered more for admission.
