IIIT Guwahati Admission 2026 FAQs

Ques. How do IIIT Guwahati, IIIT Lucknow, and IIIT Pune compare for BTech entry and campus facilities?

Ans. All three institutes use JEE Main scores and JoSAA counselling for admission. IIIT Guwahati has 165 Computer Science seats and 89 ECE seats, along with a permanent campus and an established admission system. IIIT Lucknow has an intake of 150 students across IT, CS and AI, and CS and Business Systems. It currently uses a transit campus while its permanent campus is being developed. IIIT Pune was established in 2016 and follows the same JEE-based route, but its branch and seat details are less clear. It also operates from a temporary campus. These factors make IIIT Guwahati the more stable and structured option for admissions and infrastructure.

Ques. What admission route and campus resources are available to IIIT Guwahati CSE students?

Ans. Entry to the B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering depends on JEE Main performance, followed by JoSAA or CSAB counselling. Students can participate in research, projects, and collaborative work. Campus resources include air-conditioned classrooms, projection facilities, and Wi-Fi throughout the institute. The permanent campus is located 4 km from Guwahati Airport.

Ques. What must a student pay in the first BTech semester, and what financial support can be used?

Ans. The semester tuition fee is INR 1,37,500, hostel charges are INR 13,750, and mess charges are INR 16,000. A refundable caution deposit of INR 5,000 is payable in the first semester, bringing the first-semester total to INR 1,72,250. Every student must also bring a personal laptop while joining. No fee concession is available for SC, ST, or any other category, so students should arrange the required funds before admission.

The institute supports students with bank loan arrangements and state government scholarship applications. Central Government scholarships may also be awarded to the top 10 SC and ST students.

IIIT Guwahati's reality

What I Liked

Infrastructure wise our college has a student activity centre which includes an enclosed badminton court, A gym, a table tennis room and a lot of clubs (19) which includes sports.. a lot of events take place in sports as well.
Faculties in my opinion are top notch and are really helpful.
Campus life is improving a lot, the number of events has increased and the clubs have been more active. Competitions are help randomly, technical event are held, debugging rounds, blind coding, hackathons and a lot more.

What I didn’t like

College infrastructure isnt that good yet, a lot of roads are not properly lit up yet and hostels are the worst. Food can be a LOT better. and there isnt a proper system of handling things
The one bad thing and the most important is the safety, and it is so common to see a snake in the campus just roaming around and no one does a thing. one more thing is the amount of cattle in the campus is not appreciated not because they harm anyone but because the amount manure lying randomly.

Remarks:

From the grades i got, i had to be considerate and therefore this was the best college i could get. I got this from csab round which is basically a spot round. I didnt have any group discussion. You get this college by getting a jee mains rank and through josaa counselling ( 6 rounds) . After that if seats are left.. They are placed in csab counselling(2 rounds). cutoff went 98.75 percentile last year.

Great learning,

What I Liked

The campus life is pretty chill, you are continuously in the contact of nature, very far away from home, with people from different states and cities, it's a really good learning experience
Some of the faculties here are really helpful, you can approach any faculty if you're a decent enough student

What I didn’t like

The infrastructure is very minimum, infact there are snakes rattling here at night.
Faculties here sometimes get involved in political stuff, they forget they're professors that too of engineering department.

Remarks:

My admission was through a centralised process called JoSAA. I wanted to take CSE, with my JEE mains percentile, the best CSE(NIRF) wise I could get was this college. If I had waited for further counselling rounds I'd have gotten a better college. At that time(2021) the NIRF of IIITG was 71 it has dropped to 150+ now

Small Collge Small Problems

What I Liked

Syllabus or Curriculum they teach in classes
Some faculties who teach well and think about students
The academic building is air-conditioned

What I didn’t like

Sports facilities here are straight-up bad, especially not having a Basketball Court
Mess food is not that good in quality and hygiene is not maintained in the mess

Remarks:

I chose this college because I can't get any better college in CSAB Counselling. At first, leaving home 2000km behind felt depressing, but college life here is good. There are some advantages of a small college too like you can reach class in 2 minutes and you know everyone in your college. Admissions.., JOSAA or CSAB, get admission date, travel to Guwahati, do online registration (can also be done from home), show documents, get hostel keys and done.

The fests in IIIT GUWAHATI was awesome there are 2 main fest as mentioned. We have a ground,Gym, Table Tennis, Badminton court etc.

What I didn’t like

Mess food was quite disappointed in our college.
The campus was not greenary as expected and the ground was small.

Remarks:

I had an interest in the field of computer science and engineering which motivated me to take up this course and we can learn many new things due to the quality of the alumni here. For admission, we should given a Written exam called JEE MAINS and the cut-off is different for different categories of students.
