I chose this college for its strong curriculum, industry ties, and better placement opportunities compared to others I applied to. While I got accepted into other colleges, this one offered the best balance. The admission process required a exam score and was well-organized.

Admission process is so easy they will ask some original certificate you need to give it and then based on your cut off you will be selected. No need of any entrance exam to join the college. They need to allot some more waiting area for the students.

The eligibility of this course is to have a cutoff of 150 and above in the counselling process. If you have a low cut off you can get a management quote by paying a donation. For counselling you can directly apply on the TNAU website and for management quota you can visit the college directly. And then about reservation benefits will be applied in counselling itself if you apply for sports quota you can also get selected and if you have high marks you can also get a scholarship from the management. The admission process is well and good. if you visit our college, there will be a help desk everywhere and you will be routed to the admission office and you are guided by the staff and you can complete it.
