Admission to the college is primarily through the state-level entrance exam conducted by Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU), with direct admission possible if seats are available. The college has a reputation for good placements, especially for CS and IT students, with top companies like TCS, Wipro, Amazon, Infosys, and Flipkart recruiting on campus. The placement rate varies from 70-90%, with average salary packages ranging from 3.0 LPA to 8.0 LPA, and exceptional packages reaching up to 20 LPA.
Faculty members are known for their support and integration of moral values and technology into teaching, although some concerns about faculty focus solely on completing the syllabus exist. The college's fee structure is relatively high, with the first-year course fee at 133,103 INR and hostel fees ranging from 90,000 INR to 140,000 INR, depending on accommodations. Scholarships are available through government programs for students with annual family incomes below Rs.
30,000, potentially covering up to 100% of tuition fees. Scholarships are awarded following inspections by AKTU officials. The college facilitates student development through mandatory projects and internships starting from the third semester. However, some students report limited placement opportunities in non-technology branches and a lack of financial aid or scholarships. The total fees for a two-year program is approximately Rs. 2.25 lakhs, including a refundable security deposit. Placements begin in July and extend to April, with internship encouragement from the third semester, though students often secure these independently.
