The Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions committee announced on Sunday that the online admission process for engineering in the state will begin on July 3, leaving medical aspirants in a fix as the state medical committee, which was supposed to release the rank list on Tuesday, said the list will not be out till July 4.
Payments for engineering admissions have to be made between July 3 and July 10. Candidates can select their college of choice from July 8 to 10, and they will be given a tentative allotment on July 11.
Students from rank 1 to 9,872 will participate in the first round. A total of 1,01,692 candidates will participate in the counselling for more than 1.5 lakh seats, so the struggle will be for the best colleges. Counselling will be held in four rounds.
Engineering students in the first round get another two days to lock their choices and the final allotment order will be released on July 13.
Likewise, three more rounds will be held before the counselling concludes on July 28. “General category students have to pay ₹5,000 and students from SC, SC(A) and ST category have to pay ₹1,000. The amount will be deducted from their tuition fees,” said TNEA secretary T Purusothaman.
“Hundreds of students who have secured high scores in NEET may end up paying for the engineering counselling as a backup option because they don’t yet know if they stand a chance of getting admissions in medical colleges. They will also be blocking seats in good colleges for meritorious candidates wanting to study engineering,” said R Satheesh, who coaches students for competitive exams.
On Monday, the results of the all-India quota medical admissions will be released by the Directorate General of Health Services.
Students will be given time till July 6 to join the colleges or apply for an upgrade. “We will be releasing our rank list on July 4 because we wanted to schedule it close to the end of round 1,” said selection committee secretary Dr G Selvarajan.
Several parents and students across the state are apprehensive and said they were in the dark about medical admissions.
Students use their rank and the number of undergraduate medical seats available to calculate which college they may land, if they opt for seats for online counselling through the all-India quota or offline counselling for the state quota.
While some states have already released rank lists, Tamil Nadu has not managed to the release the provisional rank list too ahead of the counselling.
“Delaying it further will adversely affect students,” said Senthil N, father of an aspiring medical student.
