Eligibility

Can You Apply?

DAIICT M.Sc IT eligibility is open to graduates of any discipline — not just Computer Science.

Bachelor's Degree (Any Discipline)

A bachelor's degree from a recognised university in any stream, with a minimum 60% aggregate.

Basic C Programming Knowledge

Required, and directly tested in the entrance exam — non-CS graduates should build this up before applying.

No Age Limit

There is no upper age restriction for appearing in the DAIICT M.Sc IT entrance exam.

Final-Year Students

Can apply if expecting to complete their degree by July, subject to meeting the 60% aggregate requirement.
After The Exam

The Selection Process.

DAIICT M.Sc IT admission is decided entirely by your entrance exam score — there's no separate interview or group discussion round.

Entrance Exam Score & Merit List

DA-IICT releases a merit list based purely on your raw entrance exam score — this is the sole basis for the next stage.

No Interview or GD

Unlike many postgraduate admissions, there is no personal interview or group discussion — your written score alone decides your rank.

Online Counselling & Seat Allotment

Merit-ranked candidates go through online counselling for the ~120 available M.Sc (IT) seats.

Document Verification & Fee Payment

Confirm your seat with document verification and an initial payment (around ₹1,75,000) at the time of counselling.
Why This Exam Is Worth It

Why Choose DAIICT.

DA-IICT is a single, focused ICT university, not a spread of colleges — here's what that means for you.

NAAC 'A' Grade, UGC Recognised

DA-IICT (now Dhirubhai Ambani University) is a UGC-listed university accredited with a NAAC 'A' grade.

Strong Postgraduate Placements

2026 PG placements averaged around ₹7.57 LPA, with a highest package of ₹21.89 LPA.

150+ Recruiters

Top recruiters have included Google, Amazon, Microsoft, Flipkart and Deloitte, among 150+ companies on campus.

Small, Focused Cohort

Around 120 seats for M.Sc (IT) keeps batch sizes small compared to large multi-discipline universities.
Placement and ranking figures reflect recent cycles and can change year to year — always cross-check the latest figures on DA-IICT's official placement reports before deciding.
Preparation Strategy

A Plan For Where You're Starting From.

Mathematics and C Programming together decide 60% of your score — how you prioritise the rest depends on your background.

Non-CS Graduate (New to Programming)

Start with C programming fundamentals from scratch — variables, loops, functions, arrays — before moving to anything advanced. Rebuild 10+2 Mathematics topic by topic alongside, since both sections together are 60% of the paper.

CS/IT Graduate (Comfortable With Basics)

Move to timed practice on trickier C programming output-prediction questions and discrete mathematics, while keeping quantitative aptitude and English sharp with regular short drills.

Targeting a Strong Merit Rank

Push accuracy on Mathematics and C Programming first, since together they're 60% of your score. Keep Reasoning and English error-free with weekly full-length mocks under strict negative-marking discipline.

Working Professional (Limited Daily Hours)

Time-box study into short daily blocks — prioritise C Programming and Mathematics first, use English as a quick-revision section during commute time, and rely on weekend mocks to simulate the full 90-minute paper.
