BMSIT Course Admission 2026: Dates, Fees, Eligibility, Application Process, Selection Criteria

Admission to the Bachelor of Engineering (BE) program in Information Science & Engineering at BMS Institute of Technology and Management (BMSIT) can be pursued through multiple paths, namely KCET, COMEDK, and management quota. For Karnataka students, admission is typically via KCET, which requires a minimum of 45% in 12th grade PCM, although higher marks may be needed for competitive branches. Non-Karnataka students generally apply through COMEDK, with cutoff ranks for the Information Science & Engineering branch ranging from 3000 to 6348.

Candidates applying via KCET can expect cutoff ranks around 10,000 for less competitive branches. There is no reservation for COMEDK students, whereas KCET offers reservations mainly for Karnataka residents. The admission process is initiated through the respective exam portals, with COMEDK applications starting in January. Both exams assess applicants in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. The COMEDK exam is computer-based, and no negative marking exists, making it relatively easier than JEE.

Counseling can extend through three rounds, and the final seat allocation is rank-dependent. Management quota seats are available, with fees considerably higher than merit-based admissions. Eligibility for the programs includes a minimum of 45% in 12th PCM, though some mention needing 60% or higher. Counseling and admission processes, although comprehensive, are noted to be lengthy but manageable. Prospective students can refer to the college's website for detailed fee structures and specific admission guidelines.
