New Horizon College of Engineering (NHCE) offers Bachelor of Engineering (BE) in Electrical and Electronics Engineering through two primary admission routes: the Karnataka Common Entrance Test (KCET) and management quota. Eligibility for KCET requires a student to have studied in Karnataka for a minimum of seven years. The KCET entrance exam involves objective-type questions in physics, chemistry, and mathematics. For admission through KCET, students typically need to secure a rank below 20,000, though cutoffs can vary each year.

Candidates who don't meet the KCET cutoff may apply through the management quota, which involves paying a specified fee directly to the college. Admission for KCET candidates includes a counseling process, payment of fees, and submission of a form obtained from the school's website. Board percentage requirements for eligibility can range from 50% to 75% in 12th grade. The counseling and verification process may take over two weeks. The fee structure for KCET candidates includes a payment of INR 1 lakh to the government and INR 50,000 to the college.

NHCE does not accept admissions through COMEDK, and students from other states must consider management quota with potential additional fees. The admissions process is noted for its clarity and smooth management, though some concerns about the speed of document verification have been mentioned.

New Horizon basics

Admission:

I tried for dayanand sagar but didnt want to get into it as the fees was on the higher side comparing to new horizon college. I specifically chose new horizon as it is really close to variois companies and is in fact situated at the centre of the IT hub. The admission process is simple, go to the reception, they will guide you the process of enrolling into the college, they will provide the fee structure that you have to pay.

The life of a new horizon college of engineering student

I applied to other colleges as well in Bangalore like are we college Dayanand Sagar College BMS College and other reputed colleges but my KCET rank was low to get that college but my rank full filled this New horizon College of engineering so I choose this college to join and the admission process of this college is simple we should get a order letter from kea website and should pay the lab fees and other fees of the college it was good experience while getting admission in this college.

My days in new horizon

I applied to almost all the top colleges around Bangalore but my scores were too low to get in to any of them.. of all the colleges I could get in to, new horizon had the best placements All you have to do is enter the college and pay the fee if you have passed your 12th

Best Review for NHCE ????

Good Placement opportunities, especially in CSE,ECE and EEE. Well-established infrastructure with labs, libraries and research centres. Decent faculty. I didn't apply to any other college because i had to fine a college near me and NHCE was the best college within my options and i was going to get in no matter what. The overall admission process was very smooth , with clear instructions and communication.

Deep seek of college

This was the nearest and best engineering college from my home and mostly my seniors are studying here so technically didn't have a option and other colleges very asking hefty amounts to join their college and I was not able to afford those funds due to unforeseen family issues and the eligibility in this city (banglore) getting a college is but a good is therefore a task when the money games come to play for fees, hostel , etc.

Nhce the best affordable college

I had applied to many colleges which i thought i would get through my merit but i couldnt score well so i had to opt for management and this was the college i thought is best in my budget and has more of everything which other colleges have i dont really know the admission process because my parents had set this all up for me Cutoff for kcet is 20k rank and belowandee is through jee it is 95%ile
