Candidates can pay the application fee through the available online payment methods, including net banking, credit card and debit card. Applicants should verify the payment status after completing the transaction and retain the application confirmation for future reference.
Before making payment, candidates should review the information entered in the application form carefully. Any discrepancy between the application details and supporting documents may affect the admission process.
Candidates must satisfy the eligibility requirements prescribed for VITEEE 2027 before submitting their applications. Eligibility depends on the qualifying examination, subject combination and aggregate marks obtained in the relevant subjects.
Candidates who passed Class 12 or an equivalent qualifying examination in 2025 or 2026, or are appearing for the examination in 2027, can apply, subject to the other eligibility conditions. Candidates who passed Class 12 in 2024 or earlier are not eligible for VITEEE 2027.
The qualifying examination must be completed through an accepted educational board and meet the prescribed subject requirements.
For the standard BTech eligibility criteria, candidates must have secured at least 60% aggregate marks in the relevant subjects in Class 12.
Candidates applying through the Mathematics route must meet the prescribed aggregate requirement in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics. Candidates applying through the Biology route must meet the prescribed aggregate requirement in Physics, Chemistry and Biology. The minimum subject-specific marks requirements must also be satisfied.
The minimum aggregate requirement is 50% for candidates belonging to the Scheduled Caste (SC) and Scheduled Tribe (ST) categories and candidates from Jammu and Kashmir, Ladakh and the specified northeastern states.
Candidates should check the official eligibility guidelines for the applicable subject combination, category and programme before applying.
Yes, candidates with Physics, Chemistry and Biology can apply for eligible programmes through the Biology subject option. However, this does not make every BTech specialisation available to them.
Biology applicants should check the programme-specific conditions before selecting their subject preference. The available programmes may include Biotechnology, Bioengineering and certain health-related or bioinformatics programmes, subject to the university's eligibility rules.
Candidates can complete VITEEE 2027 registration online by following the steps below.
Step 1: Visit the official website, viteee.vit.ac.in.
Step 2: Open the new user registration section and enter the required details, including the applicant's name, date of birth, mobile number and email address.
Step 3: Verify the registered mobile number using the prescribed verification process and access the candidate login.
Step 4: Fill out the VITEEE 2027 application form with personal information, address details, qualifying examination information and subject preferences.
Step 5: Enter the Class 10 academic details and upload the required documents, photograph, signature and other information in the prescribed format.
Step 6: Pay the VITEEE 2027 application fee of ₹1,450 through an available online payment method.
Step 7: Review the application form carefully, complete the submission process and save a copy of the submitted application for future reference.
Candidates should ensure that their names, dates of birth, academic details and contact information match the relevant records. They should also check the official prospectus for document specifications and any additional instructions.
VITEEE 2027 will be conducted as a computer-based test (CBT). The examination will contain 100 multiple-choice questions and have a duration of two hours. The question paper will be available in English.
The examination will assess candidates across five sections, with Mathematics or Biology selected according to the applicant's subject combination.
| Subject | Number of questions |
| Mathematics or Biology | 40 |
| Physics | 25 |
| Chemistry | 25 |
| Aptitude | 5 |
| English | 5 |
| Total | 100 |
Candidates should select the appropriate subject option based on their qualifying subjects and the programmes for which they intend to seek admission.
The VITEEE 2027 marking scheme awards four marks for every correct answer and deducts one mark for every incorrect answer. Unanswered questions carry no marks.
| Response | Marks |
| Correct answer | +4 |
| Incorrect answer | -1 |
| Unanswered question | 0 |
Candidates should account for negative marking while preparing their examination strategy. Accuracy is important because incorrect answers can reduce the overall score.
The VITEEE 2027 result is tentatively expected to be announced in the second week of May 2027. The online counselling process is also expected to begin around the second week of May, according to the tentative schedule.
Candidates should check the official website for the result announcement and subsequent counselling instructions. After the result is declared, eligible candidates will need to follow the prescribed counselling process to seek admission to BTech programmes at participating VIT campuses.
Admission is based on the VITEEE rank, fulfilment of eligibility requirements, counselling choices and seat availability. Candidates should therefore review the programme options and campus preferences carefully before participating in counselling.
VITEEE is conducted for admission to undergraduate engineering programmes offered by the VIT group of institutions. The campuses include:
VIT Vellore
VIT Chennai
VIT-AP
VIT Bhopal
Candidates can explore the available BTech programmes and campus options during the admission and counselling process. The final allotment depends on the candidate's rank, eligibility, choices and available seats.
Yes. Candidates do not need to appear for JEE Main to seek BTech admission through the regular VITEEE admission route. VITEEE is the required entrance examination for Indian candidates seeking admission to the university's BTech programmes, subject to the applicable admission rules.
Candidates who have not registered for JEE Main can therefore consider VITEEE as a separate engineering entrance examination. However, they must complete VITEEE registration and meet the university's eligibility criteria.
VITEEE and JEE Main are separate engineering entrance examinations with different admission processes. JEE Main is used for admission to participating institutions, including NITs and IIITs, while VITEEE is used for BTech admissions through the VIT admission process.
Candidates deciding between the examinations should consider their target colleges, preparation level, syllabus coverage, examination schedules and admission requirements. Students may prepare for both examinations if they meet the respective eligibility conditions and can manage the preparation workload.
There is no universal answer to whether VITEEE is harder than JEE Main. The perceived difficulty depends on the candidate's strengths, preparation and the particular question paper.
