Which B.Tech branch should you pick at SKCT?

Branch
Artificial Intelligence and Data Science (AI and DS)
180 seats. Closed at 17,759 for OC in TNEA 2024. INR 50,000 a year.
Pick it if:
Your OC TNEA rank is better than 17,759: AI and DS closed at that rank in 2024, the tougher of the two SKCT B.Tech courses.
You want the lower fee of the two: AI and DS costs INR 50,000 a year against INR 55,000 for IT, because it is not yet NBA accredited.
You want data and machine learning work: Amazon and Huawei are on the college's featured recruiter list, though most campus offers come from software service firms.
Skip it if:
You want a course with a long placement record: AI and DS started in 2021, so its first batch finished only in 2025 and it has few seniors in jobs.
You need an NBA accredited course: the college lists NBA accreditation for IT, not for AI and DS.
Information Technology (IT)
180 seats. Closed at 22,500 for OC in TNEA 2024. INR 55,000 a year.
Pick it if:
Your OC TNEA rank falls between 17,759 and 22,500: IT was still open at those ranks in 2024, after AI and DS had closed.
You want a software service job: Cognizant, Wipro, Accenture and Infosys are on SKCT's featured recruiter list, and they hire for software roles.
You want a long-running department: IT started in 1999 and holds NBA accreditation till June 2027.
Skip it if:
You want the lowest fee at SKCT: IT costs INR 55,000 a year against INR 50,000 for AI and DS.
You are SC and your rank is past 87,617: IT closed at that rank for SC in 2024, so list other colleges below it.
Counsellor's advice
If your OC rank beats 17,759, list AI and DS first and IT second. If it falls between 17,759 and 22,500, IT is your likely seat, so list it high. Both courses place through one cell, so pick the subject you want to study.
B.Tech Eligibility▾
Class 12 marks: 45% on average in Maths, Physics and Chemistry. 40% for BC, MBC, SC and ST students.
No entrance exam: TNEA ranks you on your Class 12 Maths, Physics and Chemistry marks, as a cutoff out of 200.
Same rule, every branch: AI and DS and IT use the same marks rule; only the closing rank differs.
Government school students: 7.5% of seats are kept for students who studied Class 6 to 12 in Tamil Nadu government schools.
B.Tech Admission Process▾
Register on TNEA: Apply online in May and upload your Class 12 marks and certificates.
Get your rank: TNEA publishes one rank list, with a random number to break ties between equal marks.
Fill your branch order: List AI and DS and IT under SKCT's college code 2722 in the order you want them.
Confirm the seat: Accept the allotment on the portal within the days given, or the seat goes to the next student.
Report at SKCT: Pay the fee and bring your original certificates for the document check.

In short
SKCET pays a higher median and sends more students to higher studies, but places a smaller share of its batch. If your rank opens the same course at both, weigh SKCET's pay against SKCT's placement rate.
In short
KCT places a smaller share at a lower median, but far more of its graduates go on to higher studies. If you plan a master's degree, KCT has the stronger record; for a campus job, SKCT's numbers are better.
In short
SREC places about as many students as SKCT from a bigger batch, so its placement rate is lower. SKCT is ahead on median pay and placement rate in both years shown.
In short
SRIT placed about half its batch at a lower median pay. If your rank opens a seat at both, SKCT has the stronger placement record.

FAQs on Sri Krishna College of Technology B.Tech

Short answers to what students ask before they apply.

How do I get a B.Tech seat at SKCT?▾

Can I get the full fee waived?▾
Yes, if you are SC, SCA or ST and your family income is up to INR 2.5 Lakhs a year. The Post Matric Scholarship then pays the full yearly fee.
What is the first graduate concession worth?▾
INR 25,000 a year on AI and DS and INR 27,500 on IT, if no one in your family has a degree. You need a No Graduate certificate at counselling.
