The college maintains a merit-based admission process with a cutoff mark of 65, accompanied by an interview with the management. It offers a cost-effective fee structure compared to other colleges under the same university, with tuition fees ranging from 60,000 INR to 85,000 INR annually. Additional costs include registration fees of 2,000-3,500 INR, lab, library, and admission fees of 5,500 INR each, and exam fees of 2,000 INR per semester.
Scholarships such as the minority department scholarship of 30,000 INR per year are available under the merit-cum-means scheme, although some students report not receiving them. The college provides a supportive environment with a student-faculty ratio of 15:1, weekly tests, and three internal exams per semester to aid learning. Despite this, students find it challenging to clear all subjects in the final exams. Internship opportunities are mandatory, with support provided, especially for Mechanical students, though sometimes requiring payment.
Placement activities start in the 7th semester with companies like Bosch, TVS, and Wipro visiting the campus. Last year, 50% of students secured placements, with the highest package offered being 30,000 INR. The college has a strategy of reducing fees to attract more students, resulting in increased admissions last year. While the fees are considered manageable, some students find the college less suitable for serious study without scholarships.
