On Question asked by student community
For MBA admission through TS ICET, a residence certificate is generally required if you are applying under the state quota, as it helps determine your eligibility for local category seats. Usually, the residence certificate of the student is preferred, but in some cases, the father’s or guardian’s certificate may also be accepted, depending on the rules of the admitting college or university. Regarding the bonafide certificates from Class 8 to B.Com issued by Telangana schools and colleges, these are helpful to prove that you have studied in Telangana, but most authorities still require an official residence certificate to confirm domicile eligibility.
Good afternoon. Yes, a residence or domicile certificate is required to get a seat in MBA through TSICET.

Hi Anjum!
Thanks for your question. Based on your TS ICET 2025 rank of 6000 and the fact that you're from the BC-B girl category, you do have a fair chance to get a seat in VNR Vignana Jyothi Institute of Engineering and Technology (VNR VJIET) for MCA.
In previous years, BCB girl candidates with ranks around 5000–7000 have been able to secure seats in good colleges like VNR, especially in later counselling phases or spot rounds. VNR is one of the better colleges in Telangana for MCA, so the cutoff can vary slightly based on demand that year. Since you're from a reserved category and female, you get the benefit of category and gender-based reservation which improves your chances.
I would strongly suggest participating in Phase 2 of counselling, keeping VNR as a top choice, and also adding a few backup colleges just in case. You can also keep an eye out for spot admissions where vacancies are filled quickly.
Wishing you all the best with your MCA admission,
With a 9007 TS ICET 2025 rank and SC category, you have a good chance to get into reputed MBA/MCA colleges in Telangana. Colleges like CMR, Malla Reddy, Badruka, and Telangana University are within reach. Top colleges like CBIT or JNTU-H may be harder but possible in later rounds. Prioritize your web options wisely, attend all counselling rounds, and keep your documents ready for verification.
