Admission Process Overview
The admission process for the Mechanical Engineering program at Gyanveer University Sagar is conducted through a transparent and merit-based system. Prospective students must fulfill specific eligibility criteria and go through several stages of evaluation to secure a seat in the program.
Applicants can apply either through JEE Main or JEE Advanced, depending on their qualifying exam results. The university also accepts scores from other recognized national-level entrance examinations such as BITSAT, VITEEE, and MHT-CET for lateral entry into specific semesters.
The process begins with the submission of an online application form through the official university website. Applicants must upload scanned copies of required documents including academic transcripts, identity proof, photograph, signature, and category certificates (if applicable). All documents must be in PDF format and meet specified size and resolution requirements.
After document verification, candidates proceed to appear for the entrance examination. The exam is usually held in May or June each year, with results announced within two weeks. Based on performance, candidates are ranked according to their scores, and seats are allocated based on merit and category-wise reservation policies.
Once seat allocation is complete, admitted students must confirm their admission by paying the required fees within the stipulated deadline. This includes depositing a non-refundable amount along with other administrative charges as outlined in the admission brochure.
Final verification of documents takes place during the first week of the academic session, where candidates must submit original documents for verification against uploaded copies. Failure to present valid documents may result in cancellation of admission.
