Admission to B.Tech and B.Pharm courses requires a 10+2 examination pass with at least 60% aggregate marks and 50% in Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry/Biology. Entry is based on the GAT(UGTP) scores, with COMEDK as an option for non-Karnataka residents. GAT features multiple-choice questions and negative marking, with cutoffs affecting fees. Tuition is approximately 3 lakh INR via GAT and 1.54 lakh INR via COMEDK. Fees have increased from 1,86,000 INR in 2014 to 2,75,000 INR, excluding separate hostel fees.

Scholarships of 10,000 INR are available for students with a GPA of 9.0 or higher, and top students receive a semester-based scholarship of the same amount. CGPA above 8.5 and no backlogs are necessary for scholarship eligibility. Payment methods include checks, demand drafts, and bank transfers, with fines for late fees. The college offers educational loans covering up to 70% of expenses. The faculty is experienced and supportive, especially in internships and research.

Notably, the civil department has faculty with government collaboration. The placement cell has a strong record, with over 80 companies visiting, including Deloitte, Microsoft, TATA, ITC, HCL, Wipro, and Tech Mahindra. Training includes employability skills and mock interviews, although core placements for civil and mechanical engineering are fewer. Paid internships are available, with some students independently finding opportunities. Despite the high fees, the college provides excellent infrastructure and maintains good relationships with placement companies, ensuring many students secure jobs through campus placements.
