RVCE Course Admission 2026: Dates, Fees, Eligibility, Application Process, Selection Criteria

The Bachelor of Engineering (BE) in Electrical and Electronics Engineering at RV College of Engineering is highly sought-after, primarily accessed through the KCET and COMEDK entrance exams. For KCET, candidates must have spent a minimum of seven years in Karnataka and require a 60% minimum score in their 12th boards. COMEDK is available to students from outside Karnataka with a similar eligibility criterion. Each exam has associated fees: approximately 500 INR for KCET and 2000 INR for COMEDK.

COMEDK offers no reservations, whereas KCET provides certain category reservations including OBC and SC/ST. The cutoff ranks are competitive, often necessitating sub-500 rankings for popular courses like Computer Science. Successful COMEDK candidates typically secure ranks under 6000, while the KCET process tends to allow slightly higher ranks. The admission timeline for COMEDK usually begins in February and concludes with multiple counseling rounds, which can extend into several months, although efforts are made to streamline the process each year.

Management quota admissions are available, offering immediate entry with significantly higher fees, sometimes reaching up to 60 lakh INR for certain courses. Extra fees are applicable at different stages, mostly during the initial year. The college's favorable reputation and high placement record contribute to its competitive entry requirements, making RVCE a preferred choice among engineering aspirants.
