Whether you can directly join Heritage Institute of Technology (HIT) depends on what you mean by "directly." Here are the different ways of joining HIT:

Regular Admissions:

• No direct admissions: Unfortunately,  HIT doesn't offer direct admissions for any B.Tech program. You need to go through the regular admission process,  which involves:
  • Qualifying in either WBJEE or JEE Main exams.
  • Meeting the minimum cut-off score for your desired program.
  • Participating in the counselling process and securing a seat based on your rank and programme choices.

Other Admission Options:

• Lateral Entry: If you've completed a Diploma in engineering,  you can apply for lateral entry to the second year of a B.Tech programme at HIT. Admission is based on a separate entrance exam conducted by WBJEE.
• Management Quota: Some seats in each B.Tech programme are reserved under the Management Quota. While not "direct" in the strict sense,  this might offer an alternative route for admission if you meet the eligibility criteria and pay the required fees.

Important Points:

• The Management Quota seats are limited and admission isn't guaranteed. Merit and other criteria set by the institute determine selection.
• Regardless of the quota you apply under,  fulfilling the program's eligibility criteria (e.g.,  minimum percentage in qualifying exams) remains mandatory.

Recommendations:

• Check the official HIT website or contact the admissions office for the latest information on B.Tech admission procedures and specific eligibility requirements for different options.
• Focus on preparing for WBJEE or JEE Main if aiming for regular admission through merit.
