Chennai:4.7.2019

The Tamil Nadu Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (Tanuvas) on Wednesday released the rank list for admissions into undergraduate courses BVSc & AH and BTech.

S Swathi of Dharmapuri topped the rank list with 199.5 marks out of 200.

A Jane Sylvia of Tuticorin and M Harsha of Kanyakumari got 199.25 and 199 marks respectively and secured second and third places on the rank list. The admission into veterinary courses is based on Class XII marks. Candidates may verify their ranks on Tanuvas’s official website www.tanuvas.ac.in. There has been a surge in applications for the BVSc and AH course, compared to last year. While Tanuvas received 12,000 applications for the BVSc & AH course in 2018, this year the number has gone up to 15,476. The applications for BTech courses also witnessed a rise this year.

“There was a 29% increase in applications for BVSc and AH compared to last year. For BTech courses, the number of applications has increased by 14.64%,” animal husbandry minister Udumalai K Radhakrishnan told media representatives after releasing the rank list. Of 18,438 applicants, 17,122 were found eligible.

As many as 360 seats are available for the BVSc and AH course at four veterinary colleges, while 100 seats are available for the BTech courses (food technology, poultry technology and dairy technology). “We plan to start new veterinary colleges,” the minister said.

Tanuvas vice-chancellor C Balachandran said counselling will be held in the third week of July. “The schedule along with details of candidates called for counselling, their marks and rank will be released on our official website,” he told the media.

Last year, the OC cut-off for BVSc and AH was 196 out of 200 marks. This year the cut-off is likely to come down due to poor performance of Class XII state board students.

K Gopal, secretary of Animal Husbandry, Dairy and Fisheries, and P Tensingh Gnanaraj, registrar of Tanuvas, also participated in the event.
