Admission:

The admission was through Neet . I had hoped to be a doctor. But as the marks wasn't sufficient, I chose agriculture. I only applied for two colleges, this one and College of Agriculture in Vellayni, Trivandrum. I hoped and did chose this college as it is in my hometown so i would'nt have to stay in hostel. It is also the best college for this course in Kerala. The Arts of Kerala Agricultural University is held here. And the landscape is beautiful and vast which also provides enough resources and infrastructure for this course. Students can also get admission through ICAR examination. The cut off changes for each reservation and each year according to the number of students and also the highest marks.

Admission:

I chose this college for my post graduation because, it is the number one agriculture college in kerala. As it is the Kerala Agricultural University campus, the facilities are uncountable. The admission process is through the entrance examination conducted by the university itself. 85% of the seats are filled by the qualified top rank holders of the university entrance examination. The remaining 15% is filled by the candidates who qualified national level ICAR - JRF examination. Usually the admission for the post graduation and phD occurs during the month of August. I preferred this campus due its facilities and academic as well as research performances. Before my admission I got some information from the website www.kau.in.
