To get direct admission in the Diploma in Mechanical Engineering (Automobile) at Government Polytechnic College Lucknow through the Uttar Pradesh Board of Technical Education (BTEUP), one generally needs to pass through the Joint Entrance Examination Council Uttar Pradesh (JEECUP), although direct admissions based purely on Class 10th marks require a good academic background. Typically it requires a minimum of 35% marks in class 10th with Mathematics and Science as compulsory subjects; higher marks increase the probabilities, especially in sought after branches like Mechanical Engineering. Details of the eligibility criteria have to be referred from the college website or JEECUP guidelines.
