To enroll in the B.Tech program, candidates need to complete the 12th grade or hold a diploma and pass either the ECET or EAMCET exams, which have no negative marking. Admission is merit-based, and successful candidates get fee reimbursement. For instance, a candidate with a rank of 27,000 in the 2017 AP EAMCET chose Sri Venkateswara College of Engineering (SVCET) for Civil Engineering. The college requires attending counseling and reporting with certificates on the specified date.
Tuition for Civil Engineering is Rs. 75,000 annually, with a Rs. 35,000 government reimbursement, leaving Rs. 40,000 payable by students plus an Rs. 8,650 building maintenance fee. From the 2019 election, the Andhra Pradesh government may cover the full Rs. 75,000 for eligible students. An admission fee of Rs. 2,000 is required. The fee structure is considered higher than other colleges. Placement opportunities are stronger for computer science, electrical, and electronic students, with fewer for Civil Engineering.
However, high-performing students can intern at Vizag Steel Plant for a Rs 10,000 monthly stipend. Top companies like Wipro, TCS, Tata, Mahindra, and ISRO visit for recruitment, with the highest package being Rs 12 lakh for CSE students and up to Rs 5 lakh for Civil students. Training and projects enhance job readiness, starting in the 5th semester. The college doesn't directly provide scholarships but facilitates government scholarships for economically disadvantaged and merit-based students.
Eligible students can receive a government scholarship of 20,000 INR in two installments. Bank loans are also available with college support. The total annual engineering course fee is around 75,000 INR, plus a building fee of 15,000 INR. Accommodation is available both on-campus and in nearby facilities. The college has a mixed faculty reputation, offering adequate facilities such as labs, a library, and a canteen, with a focus on a positive learning environment.
