Exam to be held in remote-proctored online mode.
At a time when all engineering and B.Tech entrance exams are either canceled or postponed amidst the upsurge in COVID cases across the country, the VIT Engineering Entrance Exam (VITEEE) 2021 has been preponed.
The Vellore Institute of Technology (VIT) has issued a revised schedule for the VIT Engineering Entrance Exam or VITEEE 2021.
The entrance exam will be held now on May 28, 29 & 31, instead of June.
Most of the engineering entrance tests have been either canceled or postponed. The next phase of the Joint Entrance Exam – Main (JEE Main), has also been postponed. Earlier the Class 12 board exams too were deferred.
We spoke to Dr. G. Kalaichelvan, Director UG Admission at VIT Vellore on this development.
According to Dr. Kalaichelvan, management of VIT has been very sensitive towards the anxiety and stress level of the students of 12th standards in the current crisis situation. Cancellation and postponement of exams brings in alot of uncertainty and students have to start preparation all over again. Large number of students aspiring for their engineering courses have already filled the VITEEE applications online for admissions in B.Tech offered by VIT, hence the decision was taken to reschedule the dates from end of June to end of May.
Last Date to Apply is May 20th 2021. Exam will be online remote-proctored mode.
VITEEE 2021 will be conducted in an online remote-proctored mode as part of which the candidates will be appearing for the papers from their personal devices (laptop/desktop) from the safe zones of their homes while they will be supervised by an examiner using a web camera.
The decision has been taken to keep students safe amid the coronavirus outbreak.
