Admission to the college is through the Amrita Entrance Examination Engineering (AEEE) or JEE Mains, requiring a good rank for eligibility. The process includes a rank list and five stages of allotments, with a refundable partial fee and a non-refundable registration fee required to secure a stream. An interview, usually in June, and the payment of first-term fees finalize admission. The college is renowned for its aerospace engineering program, consistently producing top GATE exam students, and offers excellent infrastructure and international-standard coaching. The faculty, many from IITs and NITs with doctorates, are generally approachable, though some departments like Aerospace face challenges with retention and approachability. The 2017 batch's basic fee was Rs. 2,40,000 annually, plus Rs. 3,00,000 for academic coaching and Rs. 1,00,000 for hostel and mess food. Scholarships based on AEEE performance can significantly reduce tuition fees, starting at INR 1.5 lakh per annum. The current fee structure includes tuition of INR 3.5 lakh per year, and hostel and mess fees of INR 49,000 and INR 45,270, respectively. The college allows fee payment by checks and online transfers, with management quota fees ranging from Rs. 6-10 lakhs. The college boasts a 100% placement rate with an average CTC of Rs 5,00,000 and the highest package of Rs 40,00,000, offered by Atlassian. Major recruiters include L&T, Amazon, Infosys, and TCS. While placements for aerospace students are tougher, 80-90% of students in other departments secure core company positions. Students can access internships during vacations, often requiring personal initiative, and are limited to two placement offers. The college also supports student exchange and internships abroad based on academic performance. Scholarships are available for high-performing students, and a full loan option through SBI Bank is offered without collateral.
