Excellent college with some minor disappointment

MY COLLEGE REVIEW

In Kongu engineering college they have many courses like BE, and Btech, for counseling students, the fee is 1L per year and for counseling students, 1,25,000 per year and they want to pay a donation which is different from the course. And the college help the students with the scholarship amounts if we scored good Mark in 12th they provide some amount to study, and for sports student college fees are free and for government school, students can study without fees and they provide scholarship for different community-based students to help them to study. Name of the scholarship. *SC and ST scholarship. *MBC scholarship.

HARI'S POINT OF VIEW ON KEC.

The fees are quite normal like other colleges. College providing placement training. And also there are few scholarships for most of the students. They are getting their scholarship year by year. Cts company will also provide fee scholarships for the students who got more than 8 cgpa with poor family backgrounds. Csss scholarship, Pragathi scholarship, BC and MBC scholarship and other scholarships.
