Should you pick B.E. CSE at ACSCE?
This course suits students who want an IT services job and can study on the southwest edge of Bengaluru for four years.
Pick it if:
You want an IT services job: Qspiders gives placement training on campus, and Accenture and Cognizant hired CSE students through drives in 2024.
You just missed the round 1 close: the General close moved from 82,465 to 280,005 by round 3 in 2026, so keep this option.
Your family wants a hostel for you: boys and girls get separate hostels, but the college gives a room only if one is free.
You want the fee back fast: at the median of INR 3.5 LPA, the KCET fee of INR 5.21 Lakhs comes back within two working years.
Skip it if:
You want a product company job from campus: most 2024 CSE offers came from smaller firms like TalentServe, Palle Technologies, Kun Technologies and Codeyoung.
You want a sure job: 154 of 204 graduates were placed in 2024, and the median was INR 3.5 LPA two years running.
You want a campus in the city centre: the campus is at Kambipura on Mysore Road, on the southwest edge of Bengaluru.
You will wait for COMEDK before paying the KEA fee: KEA cancels the seat if the fee is not paid by the round's last date.
Counsellor's advice
If round 1 gives you CSE here, take it and keep Choice 2 open for an upgrade. If you want a product company job, keep a college with stronger placements above it.

In short
KSSEM paid a higher median but placed a much smaller share of its 2024 batch. If a job for most of the batch matters more to you, list ACSCE above KSSEM.
In short
Sri Sairam placed more of its 2024 batch at a higher median, and its round 1 close was easier. If the Anekal campus suits you, list Sri Sairam above ACSCE.
In short
Sri Krishna IT had an easier round 1 close and charges the same fees, but it does not publish its pay figures. If your rank misses ACSCE, keep Sri Krishna IT as the safer seat below it.
In short
Gopalan closed a little tougher in round 1, has fewer CSE seats and charges more for a COMEDK seat. If you live near Whitefield, list Gopalan CEM next to ACSCE; if not, ACSCE is the easier seat.
Fees and pay can change. Check each college site before you decide.
FAQs on ACSCE B.E. CSE
Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.
Is B.E. CSE at ACSCE worth the fee?▾
Yes, for most students on a KCET seat. The full KCET fee is INR 5.21 Lakhs without hostel, and the Class of 2024 had a median of INR 3.5 LPA across branches. So the fee comes back within two working years. If a loan will pay the fee, check the EMI line in the fee block above first.
What job will I get after this course?▾
Most students get IT services or tech training jobs through campus drives. In 2024, most CSE offers came from TalentServe, Palle Technologies, Kun Technologies and Codeyoung, with a few from Accenture and Cognizant. If you want a product company job, build projects and apply off campus as well.
Should I take this seat if my KCET rank is just outside the round 1 close?▾
Yes, keep it in your options. The General close was 82,465 in round 1 and moved to 280,005 by round 3 in 2026. Enter this course in your options for every round, and use the rank checker above for your own category.
Who should not take this course here?▾
Skip it if you want a product company job straight from campus, or a campus in the city centre. Most CSE offers come from service and training firms, and the campus is at Kambipura on Mysore Road. If either matters more to you than the fee, keep another college above ACSCE in your list.
Is plain CSE better than CSE (Data Science) or AI and ML at ACSCE for me?▾
Pick plain CSE if you want the widest choice of IT jobs. Pick Data Science or AI and ML only if you already like that field. All of them charge the same KCET fee here, and plain CSE has the most seats at 240. You can still learn data and AI through electives in plain CSE.
Is this course good for higher studies?▾
Yes, if you plan for it early. The CSE department holds workshops on higher studies and study abroad for its students. Keep your CGPA high from the first semester and do your final-year project with a faculty member, because master's applications ask for both.
Will I get a placement if I am in the bottom half of the batch?▾
Not for sure. In the Class of 2024, 154 of 204 graduates were placed, so about one in four did not get a job through the college. Join the Qspiders training early and clear every backlog, because a clean record keeps you in more drives.
Should I wait a year for a better KCET rank?▾
Only if you can improve your rank by a lot. The General round 1 close was 82,465 in 2026, and a small gain will not change your options much. If you already clear the close for your category, take the seat now and save the year.
How do I get admission to B.E. CSE at ACSCE?▾
Write KCET and enter this course in your KEA options, or write COMEDK UGET for a COMEDK seat. KEA fills 108 seats, COMEDK fills 72 and the college fills 60 under the management quota. After allotment, pay the fee by the last date and report with your originals.
What is the full fee for the course?▾
The full 4-year fee on a KCET seat is INR 5.21 Lakhs without hostel. With hostel at the last published rate it comes to INR 9.01 Lakhs. A COMEDK seat costs INR 8.80 Lakhs for four years before hostel, so compare both routes before you choose.
Can SC or ST students study here without paying the fee?▾
Yes, on a KCET seat if your family income is up to INR 10 Lakhs a year. KEA then charges no fee, a waiver of INR 5.21 Lakhs over the course. Keep your caste and income certificates ready for the KEA document check.
Is there a hostel, and is a room sure?▾
There are separate hostels for boys and girls, but a room is not sure. The college gives rooms only if one is free, and the last published fee was INR 95,000 a year. Ask the admission office about rooms before you pay the first fee.
The college admits students through the COMEDK exam, followed by a three-stage counseling process and document verification. It offers a modern biotechnology program and a 4-year integrated M.Tech in Computer Science Engineering. The faculty is supportive, encouraging online courses and helping with student projects. Class sizes are 60-70 students, with challenging coding exams and easier theory exams. Fees vary: Karnataka CET students pay around Rs 36,090 annually, COMEDK students pay Rs 1.25 lakh, and management quota students pay Rs 2.10 lakh, plus Rs 77,000 for hostel accommodation.
Scholarships for minorities and eligible students offer up to Rs 70,000. The campus is well-equipped, with a modern library, labs, and parking facilities (Rs 5 per day). Placement opportunities are robust, with 85-90% of students placed. Training starts in the 5th semester, involving 150-180 companies like Infosys and TCS. Placement packages range from Rs 3.5 to Rs 30 lakh annually, averaging Rs 6 lakh. The highest package recorded is Rs 23 lakh. Students need at least 60% in their studies to qualify for placements.
Although there is no direct loan facility, students can obtain loans from banks due to AICTE recognition. Government scholarships are available for economically disadvantaged students. Total course fees are approximately Rs 4 lakh, with annual fees between Rs 94,000 and Rs 3 lakh, depending on the admission category. Scholarships such as NSP and SSP are available, providing Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000, with students encouraged to seek information from faculty.
