Tamil Nadu Engineering Admissions (TNEA) is conducted by Anna University every year by the University for Admission to undergraduate level courses available at various engineering colleges of the State.

Anna University will not conduct any engineering entrance exam for admission through TNEA.

The candidates for admission to engineering colleges will be selected on the basis of their performance in class 12 board or equivalent exam.

Candidates will be called for counselling in the order of their merit.

Based on the merit and communal reservation, allotment of the branch/college chosen by the candidate will be made.

Candidates have to pay an initial deposit of Rs 5000/- (Rs 1000/- for SC/SCA/ST candidates belonging to Tamil Nadu) by Cash or DD and produce all their original certificates when they attend counselling.

The date, time and venue for counselling will be intimated to the candidates and also available in Anna University website.

No change of date/time of counselling is permissible. Authorities are not responsible for any postal delay; or non-receipt of intimation for counselling. Candidates who do not attend counselling have to forego the claim for admission.

Once allotted a seat, the amount Rs 5,000/- (Rs 1,000/- in the case of SC/SCA/ST candidates belonging to Tamilnadu) already paid at the time of counselling will be adjusted in the tuition fee.

If a candidate does not join after allotment and seeks refund, only 80 % of the initial deposit amount paid at the time of counselling will be refunded.

All admissions made through single window system are provisional.

Choice Once Made Is Final And Cannot Be Changed
