The university also continues admissions to established programmes such as BTech in Computer Science and Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, three-year BBA, BBA in Artificial Intelligence, BBA in Business Analytics, and the five-year Integrated MBA (iMBA), all open to students after Class 12.

Explaining the institution’s admissions philosophy, Prof. Prakash Gopalan, President, NIIT University, said that the selection process evaluates students beyond examination scores, focusing on aptitude, motivation, and readiness for interdisciplinary learning. He noted that faculty interactions play a key role in helping students align their academic choices with long-term aspirations, while merit-based scholarships are designed to support talented learners from diverse backgrounds.
