Impact on the Students’ Priority Lists

Every year a large number of students used to give more priority to lower branches of top IITs and NITs than the core branches of lower IITs and NITs, Because students think that they can get their branch upgraded on the basis of their first year performance by taking admission in lower branches in top IITs and NITs.

But now, with the closure of the branch change options in 9 IITs and 16 NITs, students will be able to keep only the branch of their choice in their priority list in these colleges.
