Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology Nagpur (VNIT)
With the JEE Main 2015 exam just around the
corner, we are continuing a series of articles regarding
the expected cutoffs of various good
colleges. This will help you identify
which colleges you are
likely to get through and what branches you may
get. In this article, we look at the cutoffs for The Visvesvaraya National Institute of
Technology, Nagpur.
Established as the Regional College of Engineering, Nagpur in 1960, it was merged with
the State College of Engineering and was called The Visvesvaraya Regional College of Engineering. In 2002, the institute
was made a National Institute of Technology
and became the Visvesvaraya National
Institute of Technology Nagpur (VNIT).
There are
three main entrances to the 220 acres (89 ha) campus located near Ambazari
Lake in Nagpur. The campus is a green zone, which bans smoking and the usage of
powered vehicles. The campus has on display Mikoyan MiG-27 a ground attack aircraft decommissioned from Indian Air Force.
At the undergraduate level (B. E. / B.
Tech.), this institute offers 738 seats in 10 different branches. Selections to
these seats is done on the basis of a student’s All India Rank in the JEE Main
2015. The list given below mentions the opening and closing ranks of students
across different categories that were selected to the various courses at this NIT
in 2014. This list will help you understand the likely ranks which will help
you secure admission to this institute.
The list of expected opening and closing
ranks is as follows:
