The minimal score required for B.Tech programmes at GITAM University Vizag varies based on the candidate's category and branch of choice. For example, in the general category in 2023, GAT-2023 Rank 1 to 1000 1 was the cut-off for the Computer Science and Engineering branch. The cut-off scores for the general category in 2024 for the same branch, however, are not yet available. The GAT (GITAM Admission Test) 2024 results for the engineering courses have not yet been released. As a result, there are no available cut-off marks based on these scores. Following the release of the results, admission counselling is anticipated to start.
