B.E./B.Tech IT at Loyola-ICAM College of Engineering and Technology: Eligibility & Requirements

The academic first-year route uses the HSC qualification and Tamil Nadu engineering-admissions conditions.

• Pass HSC academic (+1 and +2), or an accepted equivalent, with Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry.
• For the TNEA academic route, the minimum combined average in Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry is 45% for the general category and 40% for the listed reserved categories.
• TNEA nativity, schooling and category conditions apply; a qualifying mark does not guarantee allotment.
• Tamil Nadu-native OCI/PIO applicants use Open Category; the exception excludes those born abroad after 4 March 2021.
• Sri Lankan Tamil refugees who studied in Tamil Nadu may be considered under open competition under the documented certificate route.
• Open to: Indian applicants satisfying the applicable TNEA 2026 first-year route
• Open to: Tamil Nadu-native OCI/PIO cardholders eligible for TNEA Open Category, subject to its foreign-birth cutoff
• Open to: Sri Lankan Tamil refugees who studied in Tamil Nadu and satisfy the documented TNEA certificate route
• Only the documented 2026 first-year TNEA route is represented; this is not unrestricted foreign/NRI, management-quota or lateral-entry admission.
• The OCI/PIO exception does not apply to candidates born in a foreign country after 4 March 2021. Tamil Nadu native status and the academic conditions must also be met.
• Sri Lankan Tamil refugees must have studied in Tamil Nadu and provide the specified identification/camp-registration alternatives.
• AICTE supernumerary NRI/FN/OCI/Gulf approval is No for 2026–27; that quota finding is distinct from the limited ordinary TNEA eligibility exceptions.

Government TNEA 2026 college directory, code 1450 (printed page 108), lists this LICET branch. The common government brochure, printed page 2, positively defines the restricted OCI/PIO and refugee routes. No next-cycle opening or unrestricted international route is asserted.
