Admissions Overview
Admissions rely strictly on academic performance in the qualifying 10+2 examinations. Once the application window closes, the college compiles and releases a stream-wise cutoff list on its physical notice boards, reflecting the percentage of the last admitted candidate in each reservation category.
To secure a seat, candidates whose scores meet or exceed the designated cutoff must report directly to the college administration. Verification requires presenting original 10+2 marksheets, school leaving certificates, and caste validity documents where applicable, followed by the payment of the term fees to finalize enrollment.
