This merit list is prepared on the basis of candidates’ performance in the relevant entrance tests (like NATA)/selection exam and/or their performance in relevant board examinations.
The direct admission process is followed when an institute has too many vacant seats to fill up. Usually, mid-table and low-rated colleges are known to employ this tactic. Under this process, seats are distributed among eligible candidates on a first come, first served basis.
When it comes to many private B.Arch. colleges, a certain number of seats are reserved under the management quota. These seats are allotted to eligible candidates on the basis of monetary transactions conducted between the two parties.
