Admission:

To get admitted to this college, you will have to take the West Bengal Joint Entrance Exam. To get admission in this college you have to score well in this exam. If you want to get admission in CSE department in this college then your rank should be below 2000 if you want to get admission in other departments in this college then your rank should be within 6000 My rank was 896. I applied to Jadavpur first, then Kalyani Government College, then Jalpaiguri Engineering College, and I chose the CSE department of each college. I did not get CSE in Jadavpur because my rank was not below 100.
