Applications are now open for undergraduate and postgraduate programs at NIT Calicut for the 2026 academic cycle. Candidates seeking B.Tech or B.Arch degrees must qualify through JEE Main 2026 and participate in JoSAA counselling, with CSAB Special Rounds available to fill any remaining seats. Home-state and other-state quotas are in place, typically split 50:50. For postgraduate courses like M.Tech, M.Sc., MBA, and MCA, admission is based on GATE 2026 scores and processed through CCMT counselling. The institute also offers direct PhD admissions for candidates with GATE, NET, or equivalent qualifications, followed by an interview. Hostel accommodation is mandatory for first-year students. Interested applicants should check eligibility and apply before the respective deadlines.
