The reviewer joined the college via the Karnataka CET entrance exam, benefiting from a reduced fee structure, although the remaining fees were still considered burdensome. Admission involved document submission and verification, with payment made through IFSC code as provided by KEA. The choice of college was influenced by recommendations, and civil engineering was chosen for its career prospects. The faculty, comprising entirely of M.Tech holders and over 30 PhDs, is praised for exceptional teaching methods.

However, lab resources need improvement to meet the needs of the large student body. The annual tuition fee is Rs 90,000, with additional registration fees of Rs 22,000 for the first year and Rs 7,500 for subsequent years. Overall, the four-year cost, including tuition and hostel fees, totals about Rs 7,00,000, averaging Rs 1,50,000 per year. The fee structure varies based on branch, PUC performance, and CET rank. Scholarships are not provided by the college but are available through government programs for Karnataka students.

The college actively supports placements, attracting companies like Infosys, Wipro, and TCS. Placement opportunities are more abundant for academically excelling students, though civil engineering students face fewer opportunities compared to other courses. Internships start in the 7th semester, and the college offers special training for job interviews. Many students successfully secure positions in renowned companies, though the large number of graduates makes it competitive. The college offers internships for BE graduates as lab assistants and supports students in obtaining education loans.

Internal scholarships are available for students with marks above 85%, while external scholarships, like the Merit Cum Means scholarship and support for beedi workers, are facilitated by the Karnataka government. An All India scholarship through the central government is also available, though its approval process may take time.
