## Admissions

Six current undergraduate engineering awards are included under the evidenced domestic first-year route. TNEA and college applications are distinct routes with their own instructions.


## Why students choose it

- Six current undergraduate engineering awards at one Chennai campus.
- English-medium teaching under a defined engineering curriculum.
- Department-specific laboratory tools and project-based academic work.

## Things to consider

- The domestic admission route has TNEA schooling, nativity and category conditions.
- Current annual tuition and campus logistics charges need a separate cost plan.
- International and NRI pathways are not presented as unrestricted options.

## Best fit for

- Applicants comparing computing and core-engineering branches in Chennai.
- Students comfortable with English-medium engineering coursework and project assessment.
- Families comparing Loyola-campus housing with a daily commute.

## Campus and city

The Loyola-campus setting combines engineering departments with a central library, laboratories, hostel facilities and student activities. The library provides print collections, electronic resources and NPTEL learning material. Canteen and kiosk facilities support the teaching day.

LICET is based at Loyola Campus in Nungambakkam, Chennai, rather than a separate out-of-city engineering campus. The housing decision is between an available campus-hostel place and accommodation with a workable daily journey to Nungambakkam. Students Traffic can help compare that practical choice alongside the selected engineering branch.

Engineering study includes laboratory and project work within the UG curriculum. Electrical engineering uses tools including MATLAB, MiPower, ETAP and Altair Flux; information technology adds virtual laboratories and free/open-source software activities. Mechanical engineering has automation and robotics-related learning. These facilities support academic practice, not a placement or internship guarantee.


## Hostel, food and safety

Separate boys’ and girls’ hostels operate within the Loyola campus, with kitchens and dining areas. The hostel process follows college admission and includes meeting the hostel director with parents. A course place does not establish a current room allocation or hostel price.

LICET has a canteen and kiosk, and hostel kitchens have separate dining areas. Menus, allergy arrangements and special-diet availability are not established in this profile; allow for food preferences when planning the living budget.

An anti-ragging committee and squads handle complaints, awareness activities and preventive visits. These are defined reporting and prevention arrangements, not a guarantee of personal safety.

A student counsellor provides personal support, while class advisers track registration, attendance and academic progress. Students Traffic can help compare the course route, document preparation and living-cost plan before an application.


## Frequently asked questions

### Is LICET the same institution as Loyola College?

No. LICET is the engineering college within the Loyola-campus setting. Its engineering awards, application route and college identity are separate from Loyola College’s arts and science programmes.

### Which undergraduate courses are included?

The six current awards are B.E. Computer Science and Engineering, Electrical and Electronics Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, B.Tech. Information Technology, and Artificial Intelligence and Data Science.

### How long is the standard engineering degree?

The HSC-entry undergraduate engineering route runs for four years across eight semesters. Lateral-entry regulations exist, but current lateral-entry vacancies are not represented as an open admission offer here.

### What is the teaching language?

English is used for teaching, examinations, seminars and project reports, except courses specifically taught in another language.

### What academic marks does the TNEA route require?

The academic route uses Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry. The minimum combined average is 45% for the general category and 40% for the listed reserved categories, alongside the other TNEA eligibility conditions.

### How do applicants approach government-quota seats?

Use TNEA registration, certificate verification and counselling, then select LICET and the preferred branch in the choice list. Allocation depends on the counselling process and available seats, not only the minimum qualifying marks.

### Is there a separate college application?

The 2026–27 college instructions provide an online application using a valid email and mobile number, academic information and document uploads. Submission follows Class 12 results; this does not by itself establish that a new application window remains open.

### Can an international applicant use these course listings?

These listings describe an evidenced domestic route. TNEA permits specified additional categories, including qualifying Tamil Nadu-native OCI/PIO applicants; the current AICTE approval does not authorize the listed NRI or international supernumerary quotas.

### Are tuition and accommodation included in one price?

No combined current price is established here. Annual tuition is on request, and any dated full-course planning estimate is separate from campus logistics, meal arrangements and other charges.

### Is campus accommodation available?

LICET has separate boys’ and girls’ campus logistics within the Loyola campus. campus logistics allocation follows a separate process after college admission; no current room guarantee or tariff is included.

### What support is available during study?

Personal counselling and academic class-adviser support are available. Students Traffic can help organize a shortlist and document plan before applying, while the college handles its own admissions decisions.
