Admissions for the Bachelor of Engineering (BE) in Computer Engineering at Goa College of Engineering (GEC) are now based on JEE Main scores since the discontinuation of the Goa Common Entrance Test (GCET). Admission involves applying through the Directorate of Technical Education (DTE), Goa's online portal, followed by offline counselling. A merit list is generated based on JEE Main ranks, and students select their preferred branch accordingly. Reserved category students have certain benefits, as is typical in government institutions.
The admissions process, previously held in July 2023 for GCET, now aligns with the JEE Main schedule for counselling and seat allotment. In the absence of a cut-off for Management or Direct Quota, entry is strictly merit-based through the JEE Main ranks, ensuring a competitive environment. As the only Government Engineering College in Goa, it holds significant appeal among students, often prioritized over private institutions due to concerns about fee structures and environmental factors.
It is important for applicants to stay updated with the official DTE Goa announcements to ensure compliance with timelines and processes.
