Is branch sliding possible in NIT Durgapur?

Yes, branch sliding is possible at NIT Durgapur. However, you need to follow certain policies to be eligible for sliding into another branch

• Firstly , you need to maintain your CGPA throughout the first year and have a very high CGPA at the end of the second semester.
• Secondly, there must be vacant seats in your desired branch.
• There must be someone with a high CGPA who wants to mutually exchange his/her seat with you.
• In case of a tie between two students, the winner will be decided based on the JEE Main rank.

In reality, it’s very difficult to find a vacant seat in your desired branch or someone who wants to exchange. So there won’t be more than 3 to 4 students who will be eligible for internal sliding.
