ExploreAbout this exam
SITEEE (Symbiosis Institute of Technology Engineering Entrance Exam) is the engineering entrance test run alongside the Symbiosis Entrance Test (SET) by Symbiosis International (Deemed University). It is for candidates seeking admission to B.Tech programmes at Symbiosis Institute of Technology campuses in Pune, Nagpur and Hyderabad. Each campus publishes its own branch list, so confirm the exact programme before you apply; SIT Pune currently shows the widest set, while Nagpur and Hyderabad list computer-focused branches.
SITEEE is a computer-based test delivered in a 60-minute window: on Test 01 (2 May 2026) and Test 02 (10 May 2026), it runs from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM. The official site advertises objective questions, no negative marking and two attempts, with the better score counted. It does not publish a SITEEE-specific question count, section breakdown, marking value or cut-off on the pages reviewed, so treat the SET Bulletin 2026 and prospectus as the authoritative syllabus source. Prepare with the Bulletin's topic list plus timed one-hour mocks, because a short paper rewards accuracy and pacing more than endurance.
What you'll study
About SITEEE preparation
Which campuses and branches accept SITEEE?
SITEEE feeds B.Tech admissions at SIT Pune, SIT Nagpur and SIT Hyderabad. Branch lists differ by campus and can change, so open the institute page for the campus you want and confirm the programme is open before you pay. The official SET site lists branches under each SIT campus, with Pune showing the widest range and Nagpur and Hyderabad listing computer-focused programmes.
What is the SITEEE test format and duration?
It is a computer-based test. The official schedule places SITEEE from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM on both test dates, a 60-minute window. The site describes objective questions and no negative marking. It does not publish a SITEEE-specific question count or per-section breakdown, so do not assume the SET section structure applies without checking the Bulletin.
Is there negative marking?
No. The official SET/SITEEE site advertises 'No Negative Marking'. That means an incorrect answer does not reduce your score, so within reason you should not leave a question blank if you can eliminate some options. Still confirm the current marking rule in the SET Bulletin 2026, because the bulletin is the governing document if anything differs.
How many attempts can I take?
Two. SITEEE is offered on Test 01 (2 May 2026) and Test 02 (10 May 2026). The site states 'Two Attempts, Best Score Counts', so the higher of your two scores is used. You must register and pay for each test separately; the registration fee is ₹2,250 per test plus applicable taxes.
What does registration cost?
The registration fee is ₹2,250 per test plus applicable taxes. In addition, you pay ₹1,000 per programme you apply for under SET/SITEEE 2026. If you take both tests, budget for two test fees plus the programme fees. Fees are set by the official site and can change, so verify the amount at payment time.
When does registration close and when are admit cards released?
Registration and payment close on 15 April 2026. Admit cards go live on 24 April 2026 for Test 01 and 30 April 2026 for Test 02. Results are announced on 20 May 2026, with scorecards viewable and downloadable from 3:00 PM that day. Apply well before the deadline because payment issues near the close are hard to fix.
What should I carry to the test centre?
Carry a printed copy of your admit card, a valid photo ID, and a passport-size photograph. Electronic devices such as calculators, mobile phones and smartwatches are not permitted inside the test centre. Because SITEEE is computer-based, you do not need to bring stationery or a calculator; the centre provides the terminal.
How should I prepare in the final weeks?
Use the SET Bulletin 2026 and prospectus as the syllabus authority, then practise with one-hour timed sets rather than long, untimed sessions. The SITEEE window is short, so train on accuracy and question selection. Review errors immediately, keep a formula sheet for quick revision, and take at least two full-length mocks at 11:30 AM to match the actual slot.
Is there a published cut-off or passing score?
No. The official pages reviewed do not publish a SITEEE qualifying cut-off, passing score or a SITEEE-specific score validity period. Admission is merit-based, and SIT Pune announces merit lists. Do not rely on third-party 'expected cut-off' figures; check the official site and the institute's admission page after results.
Is 2026 B.Tech admission still open?
SIT Pune's site states that all seats for B.Tech First Year, Direct Second Year (Lateral Entry) and M.Tech admissions for the academic year 2026 are currently filled, and lists the 2027 SITEEE registration link as 'Will be available shortly'. Verify the current status and the 2027 timeline on the official site before you register or pay any fee.
