Candidates seeking admission to BTech programmes at Vellore Institute of Technology campuses must complete the choice filling process within this timeframe. To access the counselling portal, students will need their application number and password. Candidates are advised to carefully select their preferred campuses, branches, and fee categories, ensuring they fill in choices in numerical order without skipping lower fee categories. It is also recommended to include backup options from other campuses, such as Chennai, Andhra Pradesh, and Bhopal, especially for those with borderline ranks. Important do's include paying the counselling registration fee of ₹5,900 before May 27, 2026, and regularly checking the counselling portal for updates. Students should avoid waiting until the last moment to lock their choices, as once a seat is allotted, it cannot be changed or upgraded.
