For students willing to change their branch after the first year, NIT Agartala has the provision of the branch slinging policy wherein you need an overall CGPA of about 9 for the first year.

However, before taking this decision always analyze the pros and cons because the branch does not matter much. Rather your determination and skills matter. Look for your real passion instead of running after the top branches. This sheep mentality won’t take you a long way and will rob you of your passions. So even while changing branches, don’t go for the branch with better placements, rather go for the branch where you have more interest. 

So, getting a CGPA of above 9 will guarantee you a seat in your desired branch at NIT Agartala.
