Hello student,

with this rank you can easily get Biotechnology in category 2. If you want in category 1 , then you can't get through via counselling, You have to get there with the management quota. You would know better once you start attending the counselling. Since CSE is too high on demand, biotechnology will be one of the courses that will be ignored.. Since your rank is reasonable, you can get biotechnology seat in VIT. Please understand that it is offered in 2-3 campuses only.

hi dear!

it may quite hard to get admission with this rank in vit vellore campus in category 1.

you can get admission in category 2 and 3. You can definetly get other vit other compus in category 1. if you want vit vellore campus you can go with management quota also.

Hey there!

If you wish to get a seat in VIT, then at this rank of 17k, you have less but yet a chance to get BIOTECHNOLOGY branch in category 1 at Vellore campus itself. The cutoff ranks might vary yearly but according to previous year trends, we can assume this year cutoff for biotech to be 17k-18k.

Again the assumption might vary according to the final cutoff for that specific branch and it also depends on the students going for counselling in this particular branch. So you can go for counselling for this branch in VIT Vellore.

Dear aspirant,

Hope you’re doing fine.
According previous year cut off data, there is a slight chance for you to get Biotechnology in VIT Chennai/Vellore with your rank. Previous year cut off was around 19k to 20k. Though getting it in Category 1 might be quite difficult, you might get in further rounds.

Hope this helps.
