RVITM Admission FAQs

Ques. How does KEA counselling work for RVITM BE admission?

Ans. After KCET or COMEDK results, you register on the KEA portal, enter your college and branch preferences in priority order, and receive a seat allotment based on your rank. Once RVITM is allotted, you pay the prescribed fee and report with original documents. KEA typically holds two to three rounds plus a spot round for remaining seats. The BE counselling for 2026-27 is currently underway.

Ques. What is the difference between KCET quota and COMEDK quota at RVITM?

Ans. KCET quota seats are filled by KEA using Karnataka CET ranks. These are government-quota seats with fees regulated by the fee-fixation committee, typically lower than the published management rate. COMEDK quota seats are filled using COMEDK UGET ranks and carry the COMEDK fee structure. Management-quota seats are separate, filled through direct applications at rvitm.ac.in.

Ques. Can I get admission to RVITM BE without KCET or COMEDK?

Ans. Yes, through the management quota. RVITM accepts direct applications on a rolling basis at rvitm.ac.in. Management-quota seats are filled based on qualifying exam marks without needing a KCET or COMEDK score. Contact the RVITM admissions office for seat availability and the exact application process.

Ques. What is the eligibility for BE Lateral Entry at RVITM?

Ans. You need a Diploma in a relevant engineering branch from an AICTE-recognised institution with at least 50% aggregate marks (45% for Karnataka SC/ST candidates per VTU norms). Final-year Diploma students may apply provisionally. Admission is through KCET 2026 Lateral Entry rank or COMEDK UGET rank, with direct management-quota seats available at rvitm.ac.in.

Ques. What entrance exams are needed for MCA admission at RVITM?

Ans. Karnataka PGCET MCA 2026 score is required for government-quota seats at RVITM. KMAT 2026 score is accepted for management-quota MCA seats. Candidates must hold a bachelor’s degree in BCA, B.Sc (CS/IT/Mathematics), or equivalent with Mathematics as a subject and a minimum 50% aggregate. Government-quota seats are allotted through KEA counselling after the PGCET result.

Ques. What documents are needed for RVITM admission?

Ans. For BE, bring your KCET or COMEDK scorecard, KEA seat allotment letter, 10+2 marksheets, school transfer and migration certificates, Aadhaar card, community certificate if applicable, and recent passport-size photographs. For MCA, additionally bring your graduation marksheets and degree certificate. Carry originals and self-attested photocopies of all documents.

Ques. Are Karnataka SC/ST students eligible for fee reimbursement at RVITM?

Ans. Yes. Karnataka SC/ST students admitted to RVITM may apply for state government scholarship fee reimbursement through the Department of Social Welfare. This can significantly reduce the out-of-pocket cost. The relaxed eligibility norms (40% for BE, 45% for BE Lateral) also apply. Check the Karnataka state scholarship portal for the latest reimbursement guidelines.

Ques. What is the RVITM MCA fee and how does it compare to other Bangalore colleges?

Ans. RVITM MCA total fees are INR 4,52,000 for the two-year programme (INR 2,26,000 annually, indicative). Government-quota fees through PGCET counselling are typically lower. Compared to many private Bangalore colleges, RVITM’s MCA fee is on the higher side, but the Bangalore location and IT sector access can make it worthwhile for the right candidate.
