80,000 Seats Fall Vacant in Engineering Counselling Friday July 26,2013


At the end of the general counselling of Tamil Nadu Engineering Admission (TNEA) on Friday July 26,2013, 80,689 seats remained vacant out of a total of 2.05 lakh seats


Reasons are -
  • All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) sanctioning new engineering colleges in areas where there are already too many
  • approvals for additional seats in any stream of engineering in existing colleges and 
  • the surrender of “significantly high” number of management quota seats for counselling

According to Secretary of TNEA 2013 Rhymend Uthariaraj, at the end of the general counselling of TNEA 2013, a little over 1.24 lakh seats have been filled

After Sunday’s counselling for those who have written the Plus-Two supplementary examination, another 1,350 seats have been taken

“The special counselling on July 29 to fill vacancies in the Scheduled Caste quota is expected to fill 500 vacancies. At the end of this, the estimated number of seats to be filled will cross 1.26 lakh. 

“Add to this, another 1,300 seats of the B.Arch. course will take the number beyond 1.27 lakh
