Admission to VIT University is determined by the VITEEE exam, which does not include negative marking. Higher ranks in this exam lead to lower tuition fees and a better chance of enrolling in preferred branches like Computer Science or Electrical and Electronics. Those ranking below 20,000 are invited for the first phase of counseling, held offline at VIT's Chennai and Vellore campuses, where branch selection is based on rank. Faculty are highly qualified, with most holding Ph.D. degrees, and the student-to-faculty ratio is about 1:30. VIT offers a Fully Flexible Credit System from the second semester onward. The examination is split into three phases per semester: CAT1, CAT2 (open book), and FAT.
