SRM University's admission process starts with the SRMJEEE online entrance exam, typically held in mid-April, with results announced in early May. Candidates with a rank, such as 5477, qualify for the mid-May counseling session, during which they choose their preferred branch based on availability. Admission is confirmed by early June after fee payment, followed by hostel booking, with enrollment completed by mid-July. The faculty, particularly in the B.Tech program, is well-qualified and accessible, although teaching enthusiasm may vary.
The fee structure is considered high, with a B.Tech program tuition fee of Rs. 1,50,000 per semester and additional costs for mess, hostel, and transportation, totaling over Rs. 2.5 lakh annually. Scholarships are available for meritorious and economically disadvantaged students. The placement process is robust, with 85%-90% of students securing jobs annually. Over 350 companies, including MNCs like Accenture, Dell, and Wipro, recruit from the campus. In recent years, over 6,024 students were placed, with a record of 6,500 students placed in a single day.
Salary packages range from 4-6 lakh per annum as a minimum to a high of 25 lakh per annum. However, students in core engineering branches face tougher competition and lower package offers compared to IT sectors. The university does not provide internships; students must find these independently, and feedback suggests improved support is needed, especially for core branches. Scholarships and financial aid are available, including merit-based scholarships and sports quotas.
Loan facilities are offered, with banks available on counseling day. The fee structure remains consistent throughout the four-year course.
