Entrance Exams & Admissions : You have to clear either JEE Mains of SET, don't worry even if you have not given any of these exams you can get into this college. All you need is descent score in boards!! Campus is amazing, seems like a hill station during rains. On the other hand faculties and branches are useless, though the labs and equipments are amazing but all the learnings are to be done by you. Also evaluating scheme is not upto the mark!! Attendance is a big issue in this college. And if you have opted for Electronics and Telecommunications branch the your life is gonna be hell!! The teachers are not friendly, they think that are teaching in IIT, and the students know everything. And after all these things you have a very bad placement record!! But the crowd is good. You'll have a good life apart from studies!!

Cutoffs vary depending upon the exam you are taking.for MHT CET this year cutoff was around 70 for ENTC.
