Hello there,
With a rank of 26,638 in AP POLYCET, admission to Computer Science Engineering (CSE) or Electronics and Communication Engineering (ECE) in government polytechnic colleges in Andhra Pradesh is unlikely because these branches usually have lower cutoff ranks.
Some government polytechnic colleges in Andhra Pradesh that offer CSE and ECE diploma courses are:
-
Andhra Polytechnic College, Kakinada
-
Government Polytechnic, Anakapalli
-
Sir CRR Government Polytechnic, Chodavaram
-
Bapatla Polytechnic, Bapatla
-
Government Polytechnic, Srikakulam
-
Government Polytechnic, Visakhapatnam
-
Government Polytechnic, Tirupati
-
Government Polytechnic, Guntur
Since your rank is relatively high, you may have better chances in other branches like Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) or consider private polytechnic colleges, where cutoffs are usually higher.
Make sure to participate in the counseling process, select various options, and check the official AP POLYCET notifications regularly for seat allotments.
I hope this answer helps you. If you have more queries, feel free to share your questions with us, and we will be happy to assist you.
Thank you, and I wish you all the best in your bright future.
