Application forms for the Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions (TNEA
2012) for entry into BE/BTech courses under the Government Quota will
be distribute across the State from May 11 to May 31.
“The forms will be
issued across 58 centres including the Anna University in Chennai from
9.30 am to 5.30 pm on all working days during the period,” Anna
University Vice Chancellor P Mannar Jawahar told the Express on
Saturday. The candidates can download their online application and also by post .
Candidates
belonging to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes can buy the
application form by paying `250 (cash or Demand Draft) after producing a
photocopy of their community certificate and other candidates belonging to the
Other Backward Classes, Most Backward Classes and Open Competition
category will have to pay `500.
The Anna University is the nodal agency for conducting the single window counselling for TNEA.
“We
have not finalised the schedule for the single window counselling but
the counselling will be conducted only at the Anna University in Chennai
for all students,” Jawahar said.
In Tamil Nadu, 50 per cent of the
sanctioned seats in self-financing non-minority engineering colleges and
35 per cent of the total seats in private engineering colleges
administered by minorities are earmarked as ‘Government Quota’ seats.
Admission to these seats is strictly done on the principle of “inter-se merit” by following a single window counselling system.
The
remaining seats are treated as management quota seats and are filled up
by the respective colleges without any counselling system. The Supreme
Court mandated that even admission to the management quota must be on
the basis of merit and should be monitored by an admissions committee.
