Candidates who are seeking admission into these programmes through gate can apply on the application form that will go live tentatively in the 2nd week of March 2018. It would serve the candidates well to first wait for the IIT Ropar gate cutoff to come out. Only the candidates with a gate score equal or higher than the cutoff will be considered for admission. IIT Ropar won’t be participating in the Common Offer Acceptance Portal (COAP) this year and the candidates can deal directly with the institute. Once IIT Ropar gate cutoff is released students can create an account through IIT Ropar’s website and apply for counselling directly there. Apart from the Gate score , some departments take interviews and written tests .
