MCE Hassan has a management quota and is advertised less compared to private colleges. The college publishes a notification after CET rounds end. Seat allocation is done on a first-come, first-serve basis, and merit still plays a role.

Does MCE Hassan provide any branch change option after the first year?

MCE Hassan does not usually allow branch changes after the first year, unlike some VTU-affiliated colleges. The seat you get during CET or management admission is final. Theres no internal reshuffling, so think long-term about your interests and future goals.

Admission to the Bachelor of Engineering (BE) program in Electronics & Communication Engineering at Malnad College of Engineering is determined primarily through entrance exams like KCET and DCET. Candidates seeking admission via KCET will receive notification via email if selected and must then complete the college admission process in-person, guided by faculty members. For those coming from a diploma background, DCET is relevant, and a good rank in this exam is crucial, given the college's popularity in Hassan and neighboring districts, resulting in low cutoff ranks.

The admission process involves a counseling session post-application where colleges are listed based on CET rankings. This step is critical as it affects the options available for various branches. The college environment and local climate are noted positive aspects that contribute to students' decisions in choosing the college. No specific details are provided about direct or management quota admissions, or board percentage requirements for this program. Having a strong academic record or rank in the applicable entrance exams is essential to gain admission, as branch allocation is based on these merits.

Journey of a guy at MCE

Student Snaps:

I have applied to dayananda sagar college, and i could have easily got a seat in their for my ranking, because of my parents i couldn't leave my hometown and MCE is close to my house. And speaking of me choosing mce over other colleges would be a good placement support. I have seen alumni working in every corner of the world. And their continous support to our college and its students. I got no rejection from any colleges yeah i did tried to agriculture domain but couldn't. Admission process is much easier, after you get your cet admission ticket just go to the college with necessary details and Fill the details completely and you will be given a college mail id and password.

Fresh Review

I got the college through DCET Because I did a diploma in computer science. Especially for this college the cutoff is very important because in Hassan local and neighbouring districts choose it as a best college so cutoff is low and your rank is need to be good as possible to get a seat in aided.

The Malnadian Review

So during admission if your through kcet then you have to receive a mail informing that you are selected for this college to particular course so later u will have to visit college and complete the admission process. Where in teachers who are present in the admission section will guide u through it in each step.
