In the BITSAT Result 2021 the Merit List for Admission is declared online by the BITS Pilani on the BITSAT website: www.bitsadmission.com .

The BITSAT Counselling Procedure 2021 is as follows:

First the Merit List for admission is prepared along with the wait list.

Merit List for Admission:

All candidates who will appear in BITSAT 2021 and are interested in admission will be required to submit Admission application form with 12th marks and preferences to different degree programmes offered at Pilani, Goa and Hyderabad campuses, in the declared time frame.

Admission decisions (Iteration 1 results) will be announced by BITS Pilani on the basis of BITSAT Score and updated 12^th marks. Further details about different iterations will be announced on the admission website. The merit position of such eligible candidates (i.e., those who have appeared in BITSAT 2021 and who have submitted the application for admission in the prescribed form with 12th marks, preferences and the required fees) will be prepared on the basis of their scores in BITSAT 2021.

There will be two separate merit lists prepared for admission: One for all the programmes except the B. Pharm. and, the other only for B. Pharm.

The cases of bracketing or Tiebreaking, if any, will be dealt with as described below:

When the score of two candidates are the same, first their scores obtained in Mathematics/Biology (For B. Pharm) in BITSAT 2021 will be considered for separating them. If the tie still exists, then their scores in Physics in BITSAT 2021 will be considered for separating them. Further tie is eliminated using their scores in Chemistry. Finally, their PCM/PCB (for B. Pharm) total marks in 12th examination will be considered for their separation.

The candidates have to fill only a single application form for seeking admission to all the First degree programmes offered at Pilani, Goa and Hyderabad campuses. The candidate’s order of preference for different programmes offered at Pilani, Goa, and Hyderabad campuses of the Institute is processed through a computer software and the offers are made accordingly. This may take a few iterations and at each stage, the status is made available to the candidates at the Institute’s website www.bitsadmission.com .

For a candidate to remain in the race, it is mandatory that the following conditions are fulfilled and strictly adhered to by the candidate:

1. The Data provided by the candidate in the application form with respect to the candidate's background, academic performance, and order of preference for various degree programmes etc. is final.
2. The required fees as mentioned in the communication from the Institute are paid in advance and the candidate does not raise any new arguments in this connection.
3. A candidate, when offered provisional admission/ placed on waiting list, can choose to remain in the competition or withdraw from the competition within the stipulated deadline

The Actual Mechanism of Admission:

The admission to the various first degree integrated courses is decided invariably in terms of the ratio of seats allotted between the different programmes rather than in terms of a fixed number of seats.

The total number of admissions made may vary from year to year. The change in the total number of seats takes place primarily to adjust to the requirements of a highly flexible system which accommodates dual degree, transfer, etc. In order to reduce the number of iterations, based on earlier experience and on a statistical projection of the responses received, BITS Pilani might make admission offers to a larger number of candidates than the number of seats earmarked.

The computer is programmed to assign the seats starting from the first candidate on the merit list and going down the same until all seats are filled up. At any time when the computer considers a candidate, it first tries to accommodate the first preference of the candidate and goes to his/her second preference if his/her first preference could not be accommodated and so on.

Assignments for all programmes are thus completed and immediate admission offers are made.

Based on the past experience of BITSAT Admission Process, a certain number of candidates would be placed on waiting list. Whenever vacancies arise, the procedure of assignment would be exactly the same as described above.

During each iteration, a de novo assignment starting from the first candidate in the merit list will be made. Of course, in this operation, candidates who have declined the offer and/or who have not paid fees would be removed from the merit list. It is now clear that in this process not only some of the candidates who are on the waiting list will get an assignment but also certain students who have already got an assignment may now get a new assignment to one of their higher preference if seats are now available.

The waiting list of the Institute has the following characteristics namely:

1. The cut-off point for the waiting list is arrived at by the past experience in terms of the responses from the candidates, the number and the quality of candidates who have applied in the current year with a view to complete the admissions and start the classes in time.
2. Those who are admitted to a programme will continue to be on the waiting list for their higher preferences, unless a candidate has specifically opted out of all his/her higher preferences while paying the fees.
3. The waiting list is for admission to the Institute and not for a particular programme, Hence, it will not be possible to assign a waiting list number for a student for a particular programme.
4. A student who has a higher BITSAT score may be on the waiting list while a student who has a lesser BITSAT score may have got admission because the former crossed out a programme which the later had opted for and seats were available in that particular programme.
5. Those who cross out a programme not only cease to be candidates for admission to the programme but also for consideration on the waiting list of the programme.
6. Those who get offers to be on the waiting list must pay their fees in advance to remain in the waiting list.

Direct Admission to Board Toppers in Integrated First Degree Programmes: BITS Pilani will give direct admission to first rank students of all the central and state boards to the programme of their choice, irrespective of their BITSAT 2021 score.

While the first rank student in PCM stream will be considered for admission to any of the first degree programmes of his/her choice, the first rank holder of PCB stream will be considered for admission to B. Pharm. programme only.

Moreover, they should have obtained the minimum marks in PCM/PCB subjects in 12th examination, as described in the eligibility criteria.

Eligibility criteria for admission under ‘Direct admission to Board toppers’ scheme: To be eligible for admission under the 'Direct admission to Board toppers' scheme, the candidate should be the topper from the science stream having taken Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics/Biology subjects in 12th standard.

To identify the topper, the following criteria will be adopted: (see below for PCB students). The topper is the student who fulfils the following criteria:

a) has taken Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects in 12th class and

b) has obtained the highest aggregate percentage of marks in 12th class among all the students who have taken Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects in 2021 from the Board. For the purpose of calculating the aggregate percentage, the aggregate marks should include the marks of Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects in addition to other subjects which are required to pass the 12th examination from the Board under consideration. Further, the Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics subject marks should be included in the aggregate, irrespective of whether the Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics subjects are identified as main/optional/elective in his marksheet(s).

In the case of first rank candidate of Physics, Chemistry, Biology stream, the criteria are same as above, replacing the word ‘Mathematics’ with ‘Biology’ in the above paragraph. However, the first rank holder of PCB stream will be considered for admission to B. Pharm. programme only. Applicants under the scheme should attach documentary proof in support of their claim, along with the 12th mark sheet and a letter from the Board declaring the candidate as the topper in the specified stream. The Institute will also make efforts to get these data from the different boards on its own. In all cases, the Institute will be guided by the data provided by the concerned Board. In cases where for a particular board, the data available before the deadline is insufficient or inconclusive, the admission committee may decide not to make any offer under the scheme for that specified Board. In all such cases, the decision of the Vice chancellor will be final and binding on the applicants.

Once the above admission processes are completed the announcement for the start of classes of First year of the Integrate First Year Degree Programmes are announced by BITS Pilani, Hyderabad and Goa campuses respectively.
