Hello Aspirant,

If your registered on June 6 and have paid your 1200 registration fee for PES University BTech Admission, but you did not upload your JEE Main score and you did not write the KCET exam, your options for admission through the regular counseling options for direct admission to CSE are limited. Nonetheless, PES university also offers Management Quota (PESSAT Direct Admission) seats, you may get in touch with the admissions office and see if there are any more, CSE seats available under this quota, as they fill up fast

Hello Maruthi,

Yes, you have a decent possibility of securing a seat in Computer Science Engineering with a KCET rank of 77,100 under the ST category in some government or private colleges in Karnataka - especially the rural and newer institutions. This is under the assumption that you would likely not get into the top tier of colleges with such a rank. Using the KCET option entry portal and practicing mock allotments will allow you to be more strategic. KCET College Predictor 2025

With a KCET rank of around 77,100, getting Computer Science Engineering (CSE) in top government colleges will be tough, as CSE is highly competitive. But you can secure seats in government colleges not too popular or in private colleges which also provide CSE. Colleges like Visvesvaraya Technological University (VTU) affiliated private colleges or other private engineering institutes in Karnataka could be options. The safest thing to do is enrol in counselling, fill options of good private colleges, and have the backup branches in place, just in case. Focus on colleges with decent infrastructure and faculty for a good learning experience!

With KCET rank 1,27,000, you won’t get CSE/ECE in SIT Tumkur.

May get: Civil, Mechanical, or Biotechnology

CSE/ISE not possible

Let me know your category for better options.


For B.Sc. Agriculture at Mandya Agriculture College (KCET 2025):

General category cutoff: Up to 12,500 rank

OBC category: May get in up to 15,000 rank

Above this rank, chances are low
