Direct second year engineering admission diploma

Direct second year engineering admission Diploma  – Also known as lateral entry.In the start of S.E, there will allot of new students that wish to transition from Diploma engineering to Degree. This is after the student has finished the stipulated 3 year diploma course from an AICTE / MSBTE recognized institute including some of the top colleges affiliated to Mumbai university.

The reason for continuing technology/engineering course in degree is because the diploma by itself is sometimes not good enough to get a high paying job,as the diploma does not dive deep enough into the particular engineering stream.

To get direct second year engineering admission into a degree college ,you need to do either a diploma after 10th,12th or a Bsc. This direct second year engineering admission has to be regulated by the CAP rounds based on merit.

There is the reservation for SC/ST candidates as well as women candidates/disabled candidates.

ELIGIBILITY FOR LATERAL ENTRY

There are two major rules laid down by the DTE for diploma to degree  students.

1.You need to score atleast 50% in your diploma course with minimum 50% marks,which is lowered to 45% for sc/st.

2.The college or polytechnic that  you passed out from should have teaching medium of english and should be affiliated to AICTE or MSBTE.
