My son is studying in 12 in india and i am working in gulf . Can he get admission in ciwg qota
Ans: Yes. The CIWGC quota (5%) is designed to facilitate admissions for children of Indian workers employed in Gulf countries to various Indian institutions, primarily engineering colleges. Many NITs (National Institutes of Technology), IIITs (Indian Institutes of Information Technology), and other prominent engineering institutions participate in the DASA scheme and offer admissions through the CIWGC quota. Candidates under the CIWGC quota must be Indian citizens, and their parents must be working in Gulf countries, such as Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, and Bahrain.

Eligibility Criteria:

Residential Requirement: Applicants should be children of parents working in Gulf countries.
Academic Qualification:
Candidates must have passed the Senior Secondary (10+2) or equivalent examination.
They must have studied Mathematics, Physics, and one of Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, or Computer Science in their 11th and/or 12th grade.
A minimum of 60% aggregate marks (or 6.5 CGPA) in the qualifying examination is generally required.
JEE Main: Applicants need to have a valid JEE Main score.
Age: There is generally no specific age limit, but candidates must have passed the 12th grade.
Candidates need to provide documents like a copy of their parent's work permit (with validity), a certificate from the employer confirming their employment in a Gulf country, and other relevant documents as specified by the admitting institution. Also Candidates need to provide documents like their 10+2 mark sheet, JEE Main scorecard.

Hello sir, my son's rank in jee mains rank 25156 he got admission in electrical in silchar in josaa round, not in csab 1st round he got mechanical in kurushetra nit and he got admission in bits pillani rajeshthan for manufacturing engineering sir we are confused that whether we have to wait for 2nd and 3rd rounds in csab or he has good prospect in bits ,please guide us for good prospect for my son
Ans: Your son’s admission options include Electrical Engineering at NIT Silchar through JoSAA, Mechanical Engineering at NIT Kurukshetra via CSAB Round 1, and Manufacturing Engineering at BITS Pilani. NIT Silchar’s Electrical branch shows consistent placement rates around 80% with top recruiters like Amazon, offering average packages near Rs 12 LPA. NIT Kurukshetra’s Mechanical branch has an approximate 80% placement rate, with major industrial recruiters and average packages in the Rs 7.5-8.2 LPA range. BITS Pilani, known for its exceptional academic environment and strong industry connections, particularly excels in placements with nearly 90-100% of students placed, offering average packages in the range of Rs 18-20 LPA. Its manufacturing engineering branch benefits from this robust ecosystem despite lack of specific branch-wise data. Considering academic reputation, faculty quality, infrastructure, placement opportunities, and alumni network, BITS Pilani provides the most promising overall prospects. NIT Silchar and NIT Kurukshetra have good regional standing and opportunities but comparatively moderate placement outcomes.

The recommendation is to prioritize admission at BITS Pilani for Manufacturing Engineering due to superior placement outcomes, institutional prestige, and strong industry ties. If BITS is not preferred or feasible, NIT Silchar (Electrical) is a better option than NIT Kurukshetra (Mechanical). Waiting for further CSAB rounds is only advisable if aiming for significantly better branches or colleges aligned with your son’s rank. All the BEST for a Prosperous Future!
