How VSET teaches IPU CET

IPU CET is the common entrance test conducted by Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University for a number of its programmes. For B.Tech admission, GGSIPU uses JEE Main Paper-1 scores through its own counselling, which is the route into VSET. At VSET this maps to documented coursework depth inside B.Tech CSE.

  • Admission to VSET's seven B.Tech programmes is through JEE Main Paper-1 followed by GGSIPU counselling, not through an entrance test conducted by the institution.
  • GGSIPU conducts IPU CET for certain other programmes, so applicants must check which test applies to the specific course they want.
  • VSET is the engineering school of VIPS-TC, Pitampura, Delhi, affiliated to GGSIPU.
  • The authoritative source for which exam applies each year is the official GGSIPU admission brochure.
