Q2. Are GITAM GAT cut-offs the same for all campuses and programs?
Ans. No, cut-offs differ for each program and campus, with premier branches (like CSE, Data Science) and main campuses (like Visakhapatnam) usually requiring higher ranks.
Q3. Do reserved categories have different cut-offs?
Ans. Yes, relaxed cut-offs are often applied for SC, ST, OBC, EWS, and PH categories as per university and government reservation norms.
Q4. Can the GITAM GAT cut-off change after initial release?
Ans. While initial cut-offs are definitive for the first counselling round; they may be revised in subsequent rounds if seats remain vacant or more candidates are eligible due to withdrawal of seats.
Q5. What should candidates do if they narrowly miss the cut-off?
Ans. Candidates not meeting cut-off in a particular round should check later rounds, watch for sliding/waitlist options, or consider related courses or alternate campuses where cut-offs may be lower.
