With 122250 rank in EAPCET 2025, you can get CSE at SVCN College, as its cutoff goes up to ~2.1 lakh.

You might get EEE if you belong to BC category (BC-D etc.).

ECE, Civil, Mech are unlikely.

Choose CSE as top preference in counseling.


Currently, we do not have any plans to set up a college hostel. Our focus is on improving academic facilities and providing quality education. However, we understand that hostel facilities are important for many students, especially those from other cities. In the future, if there is enough demand and support, we may consider building a hostel. For now, we suggest students look for nearby accommodation or PGs. We will always try to support students in the best way possible.



Hello,

With a cutoff of 135.5, your ward does have a fair chance of securing admission to a Mechanical Engineering course through the Single Window Admission System, especially if you're open to considering self-financed or rural engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu. While top-tier government colleges usually require cutoffs above 190 for Open Category students, several colleges in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities accept students with cutoffs in the 130–160 range, particularly for those from reserved categories such as MBC, SC, or ST. The possibility of admission also improves based on the region and college preference, as some colleges in less competitive areas have slightly lower cutoff trends. If your ward belongs to a reserved category and you’re flexible with the choice of college location, there is a realistic chance of securing a seat in Mechanical Engineering.

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hello,

With an AP EAMCET rank of 9,456, your chances of securing a Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) seat at Aditya Engineering College (AEC), Surampalem are promising, particularly if you belong to a reserved category. I will give you an idea of the cut-off.

In the first phase of AP EAMCET 2024 counseling, the cutoff ranks for CSE at AEC were as follows:

  • OC (Open Category): 9,723
  • EWS: 11,450
  • BC-A: 21,102
  • SC: 39,163
  • ST: 84,400

Given your rank of 9,456, you are within the cutoff for the OC category, indicating a strong possibility of admission to the CSE program at AEC.

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hello,

First of all, congratulations for securing 93% in your 12th boards. It is a very good score!

Symbiosis Pune doesn't disclose their specific cut-offs but in previous years, programs at Symbiosis Pune have had cut-offs ranging from 76% to 79% for BA courses.

You have a strong academic profile as you have scored 93% but if your SET score is low, admission can be a little challenging. However, the personal interaction round will give you the scope to positively influence your admission prospects.

Hope this helps. All the best!
