What is the symbiosis procedure for engineering admission? Get Everything In Just 7 Mins!

Very few of us are aware that our country is the second-largest in the higher education system in the world. Not surprisingly then, there are various types of engineering admission entrance exams that are conducted at the undergraduate level. Out of these, some are conducted at the national, some at the state level. Apart from these, many institutes/colleges have their own exams at the institute level. Symbiosis, which is a famous brand in the private education sector in India, conducts its own engineering entrance exam every year, known as SITEEE.

The symbiosis engineering entrance exam or SITEEE is the engineering entrance test for admission into the Symbiosis Institute of Technology (SIT) under the banner of Symbiosis International (Deemed) University.
