They mentioned that all State toppers would get 100% scholarship at VIT. What does state topper mean? I am a student of Andhra Pradesh.

VIT scholarships are offered in form of tuition fee waiver as per ranks. The scholarship is offered to top 500 rankers of VIT entrance exam. Students can check scholarship slab system below -

• 1 to 10 rank - 100% tuition fee waiver

• 11 to 50 - 75% tuition fee waiver

• 51 to 100 - 50% tuition fee waiver

• 101

The percentage of your tuition fee refunded depends entirely on when you submit the withdrawal request.  The final dates or full and partial tuition fee refund are inclined to the official commencement of the classes, which usually starts in July.

Advance fee in VIT is partial amount that must be paid after seat allotment to book allocated seat. It can vary for different categories. Once candidate makes payment, he/she is not allowed to attend further rounds of counselling. 

The advance fee payment in VITEEE is a partial amount that must be paid after seat allotment to confirm your admission. On the other hand, the balance fee is the remaining tuition fee for that academic year that finalises your enrolment.

VITMEE is the entrance exam conducted for M.Tech programme admission and VITEEE is conducted for admission to BTech programmes. However, the selection and counselling process remains to be the same.
