Hello.

For Lateral Entry seats in Government Colleges entrance exams is the only way to secure a seat.

However for Lateral entry admission in private colleges apart from entrance exams direct admission through management quota is also possible.

Though diploma engineering courses may help in an early exposure to the job market yet, you may miss out a few opportunities due to lack of a degree.

In this case, you can opt for lateral entry in B.Tech.

But, what is meant by lateral entry in B.Tech and what is the procedure & eligibility conditions to get into the same?

Lateral entry in B. Tech can be defined as the direct entry of a student into the second year of engineering (third semester), after completing diploma in engineering or bachelors of science in physics or mathematics.

The course duration is of 6 semesters (3 Years).

B.Tech lateral entry admission is possible only after you have successfully completed Your Diploma in engineering or have studied bachelor of Science (Bsc. Mathematics) after class 12th (10+2).

But, If you have done Diploma in Architecture, You can only take admission into 1st year for Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch) program after getting a valid score in NATA entrance exams.

B. Tech Lateral Entry Admission Procedure

Though there are different admission procedures for different engineering colleges yet, entrance exam can be traced as a common basis to get into B. Tech Lateral Entry programme in any university or college.

These entrance exams could be the state entrance exams or exams conducted by some deemed universities.

On a basic note, regional government colleges and private colleges consider state entrance exams to prepare merit, while autonomous institutes and deemed universities conduct their own exams.

B.Tech Lateral Entry Eligibility Criteria

You must have completed a full-time diploma engineering course or an equivalent degree from a recognized institute (Approved by Government of India).

If you are a BSc. graduate, it’s necessary for you to have Mathematics as one of your subjects in graduation.

You must have an aggregate of 45% throughout your 3 years diploma course or graduation.

Though the percentage varies differently for different colleges but most of the colleges fix their eligibility criteria as 45% for general category and 40% for reserved category.

Your minimum age must be 18 years and maximum 26 years.

If you fulfil the above mentioned eligibility criteria, only then you can take entrance tests for lateral entry in B.tech.

Hope this is helpful.

Good luck.
