VSSUT Cutoff 2026 will be released soon. VSSUT B.Tech cutoff 2026 for B.Tech is expected to close between 30,000–70,000 ranks (HS) and 45,000–90,000 ranks (AI) in JEE Main for the General category. For other popular programs such as Information Technology, Electronics & Telecommunication, and Electrical Engineering, the VSSUT cutoff JEE Mains is expected to range between 60,000 and 1,50,000 ranks for All India candidates and 50,000 to 1,20,000 ranks for Home State candidates. For M.Tech programs, VSSUT GATE cutoff 2026 is expected to range between 300 and 450 for the General category, with M.Tech CSE expected around 350–400. For M.Sc admissions at VSSUT, General category candidates are typically selected based on career marking and entrance merit, requiring an aggregate of 60% or above in their qualifying degree.

VSSUT accepts JEE Main and OJEE for B.Tech and B.Arch admissions, with final selection based on OJEE counselling. For B.Tech Lateral Entry, MCA, M.Tech, and M.Sc, VSSUT admission is based on OJEE, OJEE/GATE, and Career Marking scores, respectively. Category-wise & course-wise expected VSSUT cutoff 2026 along with previous years’ cutoff trends for JEE Main, OJEE, and GATE are given below.

VSSUT JEE Main Cutoff 2026 (Expected)

In 2026, the expected VSSUT cutoff JEE Mains CSE for BTech is projected to range from 55,000–75,000 ranks under the Home State (HS) quota for the general category. For BTech Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, the cutoff is expected to be 65,000–85,000 ranks (HS). While VSSUT is a state university primarily focusing on Odisha candidates, the All India (AI) quota ranks are typically much higher, often exceeding 1,00,000–6,00,000 depending on the specific branch.

Factors Affecting VSSUT Cutoff 2026

The following are the major factors determining VSSUT cutoff 2026:

  • Number of Applicants: A higher volume of students opting for OJEE or JEE Main for Odisha state colleges increases the competition.

  • Difficulty Level of Entrance Exam: Changes in the difficulty of JEE Main or OJEE directly impact the closing ranks.

  • Seat Matrix (Regular vs. SS): VSSUT offers seats in "Regular" (lower fee) and "Self-Sustaining" (higher fee) modes; regular seats always have much lower (more competitive) closing ranks.

  • Odisha State Quota: As a state university, 100% of seats (or near-total) are reserved for Odisha natives, making the Home State cutoff the primary metric.

  • Course Popularity: CSE, IT, and AI/ML remain the most sought-after branches, consistently closing at the lowest ranks.

FAQs on VSSUT - Veer Surendra Sai University of Technology Cutoff

Q: What is the VSSUT JEE Main cutoff 2026 for the B.Tech course?

A: VSSUT cutoff 2026 based on JEE Main will be published soon. The cutoff for B.Tech is expected to close between 30,000–70,000 ranks (HS) and 45,000–90,000 ranks (AI) in JEE Main for the General category.

Q: How does the Home State (HS) quota affect the VSSUT JEE Main cutoff compared to the All India (AI) quota?

A: VSSUT is a premier state government university in Odisha, which means a vast majority of its seats are reserved for students with an Odisha nativity certificate under the Home State quota. Consequently, the cutoff ranks for HS candidates are much more lenient; for instance, a General HS candidate might get CSE at 75,000 rank, whereas an All India (OS) candidate might need a rank under 50,000. The AI quota is extremely competitive due to the very limited number of seats available for non-Odisha students.

Q: Why do GATE qualifying marks vary so significantly between different papers like Mechanical and Electrical Engineering?

A: GATE qualifying marks are not fixed; they are calculated based on the average marks of the top 10% or the mean of all candidates in that specific session. In 2025, Mechanical Engineering (ME) had a higher qualifying mark of 35.8 compared to Electrical (EE) at 25.0. This happens because the difficulty level of the ME paper may have been lower, or the overall performance of the candidate pool was higher. Each subject is evaluated independently to ensure fairness relative to that year's specific examination paper.

Q: What are "Self-Sustaining" (SS) seats at VSSUT, and how do their cutoffs differ from Regular seats?

A: VSSUT offers two types of seats: Regular and Self-Sustaining. Regular seats are subsidized by the government, leading to very low tuition fees and higher competition, resulting in lower (stricter) cutoff ranks. Self-Sustaining seats have a significantly higher fee structure as the course is funded by the students' fees rather than government grants. Because of the higher cost, the cutoff ranks for SS seats are usually higher, allowing students with slightly lower JEE Main percentiles to secure admission in popular branches like IT or EEE.

Q: Is it possible to get into VSSUT M.Tech programs without a valid GATE score?

A: Yes, it is possible, but GATE-qualified candidates receive primary preference and a monthly stipend. If seats remain vacant after the counseling of GATE-qualified students, VSSUT conducts its own entrance test or offers admission based on the career marks of the applicants. However, these "Non-GATE" candidates are typically not eligible for the AICTE PG scholarship. The cutoff for Non-GATE admission is generally determined by the university's internal merit list and varies significantly depending on the remaining vacancy in specific departments.

Q: How did the introduction of the Data Science and AI (DA) paper in GATE 2025 impact the overall cutoff trends?

A: The GATE 2025 Data Science and AI (DA) paper saw a surge in applicants due to the global demand for AI skills. With a General qualifying mark of 29.0, it aligned closely with the Computer Science (CS) cutoff of 29.2. This trend indicates that the paper difficulty was moderate and competitive. Many students now appear for both CS and DA papers to maximize their chances. At universities like VSSUT, these scores are increasingly used for specialized M.Tech programs in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning.

Q: What factors could lead to a sudden jump in the VSSUT 2026 expected cutoffs?

A: Several factors could cause the 2026 cutoffs to shift. An increase in the number of unique JEE Main candidates—which exceeded 1.4 million in 2025—usually makes ranks more competitive. Additionally, if VSSUT introduces new specializations or increases the seat intake for existing branches like CSE, the closing ranks might move upward (become easier). Conversely, if the OJEE board tightens nativity verification or changes the reservation percentage for EWS/OBC categories, the General category cutoffs could see a significant drop in the maximum rank accepted.
