I have joined this Institute through the entrance WBJEE. After the counseling of WBJEE, we are informed through our mail about the dates of document verification and admission. The document verification and admission process is quite simple and easy. The staff are also very cooperative.
12th pass eligible with more than 60 per cent of marks with a Certified Board Admission through Wbjee and mains smooth and easy admission process after clearing Wbjee exam The campus could be larger as this is a big college
The admission process was considerably smoother than expected. There was a very high number of candidates. However, every one of them was given proper attention during the admission process. The course structure was explained and the future prospects were also explained.
I have applied for the JELET examination. Any diploma students of government / private colleges can apply for this examination. On the JELET website, anyone can apply for this exam. After this exam, students can able to appear in the WBJEE JELET counselling process. They will be able to get their B.tech colleges on their rank basis. Lower rank can get high chances to get into Government colleges like Jadavpur University, Kalyani Govt. Engineering College, Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College. But I think it will be better if WBJEE board increase the seating capacity for lateral entry, it will be helpful for every lateral entry student.
Taking donation money depends on how many seats are available. The donation fee will be high for the streams that have a lot of demand.
However, if there are seats that are vacant, you can try spot counseling and you will not be charged at all for this except for the fee required for admission.
The money that you might be asked to pay can vary depending on the financial situation of the candidates. Getting in touch with the management facility will help you in getting a clear idea. Keep in mind, however, that people who opted for the management quota had to pay huge amounts of money.
Almost 10% of the seats were kept aside for management quota candidates and they are given on the basis of ‘first come first’. Some people got admitted without paying anything at all except for the admission fee and some had to pay huge amounts of money to get in.
Another thing about getting admission through quota is you may lag behind your peers. Even if you do get admission, a lot depends on you as well.
Depending upon the cut-off as is followed by the institute, you can predict the branch you are most likely to secure admission in. Besides, you should apply for the WBJEE counseling as well, which is to say, it will be accessible through JEE Main itself. The application is based both on an online and offline mode.
Here is a breakdown of the WBJEE cut off as per what was followed by the Heritage Institute of Technology from 2019 to 2021.
WBJEE | |||
Round | Cut-off as per rank (2019) | Cut-off as per rank (2020) | Cut-off as per rank (2021) |
1 | 4960 | 4867 | 5590 |
2 | 5673 | - | 7380 |
3 | 5735 | - | - |
Based upon the following criteria, it is best that you research more about the latest cut-off for the branch you are about to apply for.
According to my friends from Heritage, 50% of your internal marks depend on your attendance. So, your attendance plays a significant role in your internal marks. Viva is conducted by the teachers as a part of the internal. Scoring good marks only in the end-semester examination will not help you in scoring a high GPA, you will have to score good marks in internal exams as well. If you have a good attendance record, you might get grace marks as well.
Since it is an autonomous institute, you will have to attend the classes. It does not matter whether you like the classes or not otherwise you will not get good internal marks. This is why there is a 60% mandatory attendance criterion.
Yes, you will get a refund. However, you will not get the total amount. As by then you would have attended 9-10 classes in Heritage Institute of Technology, the institute will calculate that and hence deduct about 10-15% of the total fees. And the remaining amount will be refunded by the authority. But, it is important to know that this process is a little time-consuming. The authorities will take about 10-15 days to complete the refund process.
One of my friends got admission to IEM Kolkata and after getting Kalyani in Spot round, he left IEM. He had gone through the whole refund process. The fee he paid was about INR 80 Thousand. He got a refund of about INR 69 Thousand. So, there is no such risk. You will surely get your fee refunded if you choose to leave this college.
Only recently, one of my friends secured admission at Heritage Institute of Technology after attempting for admission at Calcutta Institute of Engineering and Management. Given his situation, it is safe to say that the issue shall be considered the same even if you arrive from Meghnad Saha Institute of Technology.
Following his visit to Heritage Institute of Technology, IEM and Techno India Salt lake, he opted to take admission at the former. The institute rather mentioned that their reporting session was completed, however, if there was a following vacancy and if the student could fulfill the criteria of the branch, then the institute would directly approach them for further admission processes.
It is best that you extract similar information from the administration office to have appropriate knowledge about the same.
The coding culture of the Heritage Institute of Kolkata is different for different departments. All the departments have different cultures be it CSE, ECE. These departments have a good lab environment available. They have a fun coding culture without stress and deadlines. They don't force a student to learn fast and they focus on concepts rather than deadlines. But it's valid for only the above-mentioned department.
The coding culture for other departments is not so great. They will teach you more about IT world culture than coding. So, choose your branch/department wisely.
Heritage Institute of Technology doesn’t lag behind IEM. It is among the top private technological institutes in the region. In terms of academics and placements, Heritage is top-notch. Reputed companies such as Tata Advanced Systems, Google, Amazon, etc. take part in the campus placements of the institute. Heritage Institute of Technology placements 2022 witnessed the highest CTC of INR 44 LPA.
Yes, I believe so. It's something I've heard from my friends at Heritage Institute of Technology. If you cancel your admission before the start of the semester, you will get a refund.
However, I strongly advise you to contact the Heritage Institute of Technology's information desk at their official contact phone number or may visit their official website for more information.
As one of my friends studied in Heritage Institute of Technology, I am able to share some of the facts, which you may find useful.
In cases alike, there are two possible scenarios to take into account.
First Scenario:
Second Scenario:
In any case whatsoever, have a talk with the authorities of the institute. Partially, the decision that is supposed to be confirmed also depends upon the management of the college. In some cases, they possibly also deduct a reasonable amount and return the rest.
For reaching that level, a lot of hard work would be required from the students, faculty and the administration. It takes time to achieve success.
Like it has been said, improvements do not happen overnight. And it hardly ever does well when we compare ourselves with others, HIT can move forward at its own pace and it will succeed in its endeavors eventually.
