Amrita Vishwavidyapeetham Revises AEEE 2027 Eligibility Criteria

Amrita Vishwavidyapeetham has announced a significant update to the eligibility criteria for the Amrita Entrance Examination (AEEE) 2027. In a move aimed at broadening access for prospective engineering students, the university has reduced the minimum aggregate marks required in Class 12 for the Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics (PCM) subjects.

Under the revised guidelines, candidates are now required to secure a minimum aggregate of 55% in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. This represents a 5% reduction from the previous requirement of 60%, which had been in place until the 2026 academic cycle. While the aggregate requirement has been lowered, the university maintains that students must still achieve at least 50% in each of these three subjects individually to qualify for admission.

AEEE 2027 Registration and Examination Schedule

The registration process for AEEE 2027 is currently underway, and interested applicants can submit their details through the official university portal at aeee.amrita.edu. The entrance examination is scheduled to take place over a multi-day window, beginning on April 15 and concluding on May 7, 2027.

In addition to the academic requirements, the university has specified age criteria for applicants. To be eligible to sit for the examination, candidates must have been born on or after July 1, 2006. Prospective students are encouraged to review these requirements thoroughly before initiating their application to ensure they meet all necessary standards set by the institution.

Exam Pattern and Structure

Alongside the announcement of the updated eligibility criteria, Amrita Vishwavidyapeetham has confirmed that the AEEE 2027 examination pattern will remain consistent with the previous year. The test will be conducted as a Computer-Based Test (CBT) across various designated cities nationwide.

The examination is designed to last for a duration of 150 minutes, or 2.5 hours. The question paper will consist of multiple-choice questions (MCQs) derived from the curricula of the CBSE and various State Boards of Higher Secondary Education. Regarding the marking scheme, each correct response will be awarded 3 marks, while each incorrect answer will incur a penalty of one mark. Students preparing for the upcoming entrance test are advised to focus on these parameters and utilize available resources to familiarise themselves with the exam format.
