Placements & Internships : I am currently doing only two months internship program (since my batch is still under VTU) and getting a stipend of 7K per month. However, since PESIT has become autonomus university from 2018 so it currently allows 6 months internship program for its students in their 8th semester.

Entrance Exams & Admissions : The admission process for my college started with ComedK exam. Results usually come out with ranking for all the students for admissions in Karntaka state. Though PESIT now has its own entrance exam (known as PESSAT) other than the common entrance exam ComedK. I took ComedK entrance exam in 2016 through which I got admitted into PESIT South Campus (now known as PES University, Electronic City Campus). There is no specific cutoff for this exam but you will be given rankings based on which you will be attending counselling session to select your desired college in Karnataka. The selection choice is given on the basis of your ranking. The better your rank is in the exam, the better your college gets.
