The Bachelor of Technology [B.Tech] Lateral Entry program at Velagapudi Ramakrishna Siddhartha Engineering College (VRSEC) in Mechanical Engineering primarily admits students based on the Andhra Pradesh Engineering, Agriculture, and Medical Common Entrance Test (AP EAMCET) scores. For general category students, the typical cutoff rank is around 15,000, with lower ranks needed for scholarships. As of 2024, VRSEC has transitioned to a university status, requiring the Siddhartha Engineering Entrance Exam (SEEE) for admissions.
Eligible candidates should have a minimum of 90% in their intermediate exams, with good communication skills and behavior being favorable. Admissions through the management quota are also available, using criteria such as the EAPCET score and JEE Mains percentage. The application process allows online submissions, with important timelines and application fees stated on the VRSEC website. Candidates opting for direct or spot admissions must have strong intermediate scores, usually above 85%.
The university provides merit-based scholarships and government scholarships for reservations, emphasizing the necessity of original certificate submission post-confirmation. The transition to university status has led to no current reservation benefits. The admissions process, while competitive, is straightforward, with VRSEC known for its strong academic reputation and placement opportunities.
