  3. Getting in

    India has 475 universities, so Thiruvalluvar University sits within a very large higher-education system. Its main distinguishing points are that it is public, state-run, and based in Vellore, so it will appeal more to students looking for a government university in Tamil Nadu than to applicants choosing from published fee or programme comparisons.
