The university uses a specialized Online Test Booking System (OTBS) that allows aspirants to select their preferred exam date and slot once the registration phase concludes. The test is designed to evaluate conceptual clarity across five primary sections.

According to the official admission brochure, the examination is tentatively scheduled to be held from April 28 to May 3, 2026. Successful candidates will be eligible for the counselling process for the Vellore, Chennai, AP (Amaravati), and Bhopal campuses based on their performance and rank.

The VITEEE remains one of the most popular private engineering entrance centers in the country, with over two lakh students expected to participate this year. Upon the successful submission of the ₹1,350 application fee, students should focus on their revision before the slot booking facility opens in April.
