IIT Madras Opens BS Admissions Without JEE

The move lowers barriers to elite technical training for learners across India.

Overview

  • Applications are open until May 31, with admission through a qualifier process rather than the Joint Entrance Examination.
  • The four BS options are Data Science and Applications, Electronic Systems, Management and Data Science, and Aeronautics and Space Technology.
  • Eligibility requires a Class 12 pass with no upper age limit, making the programmes accessible to recent school leavers and working professionals.
  • Teaching runs mainly online with in-person examinations at designated centres across India.
  • Learners can exit with a certificate, a diploma, or the full BS degree, and eligible students can receive up to 75% fee support.
