Karnataka B.Tech Admissions 2024: Know Admission Process

Various entrance exams provide opportunities for candidates to secure admission into engineering programs. One option is the national-level entrance exam called JEE Main 2024, whose score is accepted by all state colleges. Additionally, the state authority administers state-level entrance exams, namely KCET 2024 (Karnataka Common Entrance Test) and COMEDK UGET 2024, for admission to B.Tech programs in state engineering colleges. University-level exams like PEESAT 2024 and Manipal MET 2024 are also available for aspiring engineering students.

Admission Procedure:

Admission to undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) engineering programs occurs through various entrance exams at the state, national, and university levels. Some universities organize their own entrance exams specifically for admission into B.Tech programs and their various specializations. Seats are allocated based on the guidelines set forth by the respective governing bodies. 

If you are a Non-Resident Indian (NRI), you have the opportunity to pursue a B.Tech program in Karnataka, India, provided you meet the eligibility criteria. Karnataka welcomes NRI students to its engineering institutions, offering them a chance to excel in their education and contribute to the vibrant academic environment of the state. Additionally, there is a dedicated quota known as DASA (Direct Admission of Students Abroad) and CIWG (Children of Indian Workers in Gulf) through which eligible NRI students can secure admission in Karnataka's engineering colleges.
