For Aided students, we got through counseling. We got the application form through the email they sent to us when we got the seat that is when they took us in. Other people who join management can collect it from the CIT office. Like everywhere in our college also it is first come first serve basis if u reserve first and come at the time and date which is scheduled for you they will take you in. In our case we didn't reserve before as soon as we were eligible they took the selected and sent the application form through email and called us for admission. They split every student and called everyone according to their schedule which was pretty convenient because we didn't have the trouble of waiting the whole day and leaving our work behind, of course, we waited a bit since other students also getting their admission but we didn't wait so long. The admission process was so organized so there is nothing to change. We got to campus we submitted the files and proofs and some details.And we got in.
