Remarks
Admission is done through COMED-K exam for Non-Karnataka and KCET for Karnataka students. You need to have at least 60% in 12th to be eligible for admission. The admission form can be found in the official site of COMED-K. It is released in the month of January generally. The application fee is 1500. The cut-off is released every year but ranks of less than 10000 will assure your admission. If you are from Karnataka state then you will surely have some benefits. You can even get a scholarship if applicable and your fee would be less than non-Karnataka students. The admission process is seamless. After the results are out for the entrance exam, you need to register for the counseling by paying 5000, and this will be managed in your course fee only. Then after some days, you would be asked to fill in your college preference. Based on your rank you would be allowed college. After that you will have to confirm your seat by paying part of your course fee in the college, generally, it is 50k.
