The Vellore Institute of Technology Engineering Entrance Examination (VITEEE) is a national-level online test conducted annually by VIT for B.Tech admissions across its campuses in Vellore, Chennai, Bhopal, and Amaravati. Attracting over 2 lakh aspirants yearly, it offers access to top programs like CSE, ECE, and Mechanical Engineering at a QS-ranked global university. For 2026, applications opened October 24, 2025, with exams tentatively April 28 to May 3, emphasizing speed and accuracy in a 2.5-hour CBT format.
VITEEE 2026 features 125 multiple-choice questions across Physics (35), Chemistry (35), Mathematics/Biology (40), Aptitude (10), and English (5), with +1 for correct and -0.25 for wrong answers. Conducted in English at 120+ centers in India and abroad, it ranks candidates for counseling based on percentile scores, not raw marks. No negative marking on unattempted questions encourages full attempts.
