Courses & Fees (1)
| Course | Level | Duration | Annual fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| B.E/B.Tech Engineering & Technology | Undergraduate | 4 years | ₹1.20 LKEA 2026-27 · General Merit quota |
Annual fee for a seat allotted through KEA counselling (General Merit), per the Karnataka Examinations Authority provisional fee structure for 2026-27, dated 10 July 2026. It includes university and other prescribed fees. SC/ST candidates with family income up to ₹10 lakh pay nil, and Category-1 candidates up to ₹2.5 lakh pay a reduced fee. Un-aided colleges fall into two tiers (₹1,20,320 or ₹1,30,320) which KEA does not publish college-wise, so the lower tier is shown. A COMEDK or management-quota seat at the same college costs considerably more and is set separately.
This is the fee the state has notified for a KEA-counselled seat at a college of this type — not a figure this college has published. Management, COMEDK and NRI seats at the same college are priced separately by the college and are not published here. See the full published grid.
Admission Process

The routes this site holds official data for at Dayananda. Each figure links to the table it comes from.
KCET (KEA counselling)
Government-quota seats are allotted by KEA on the KCET rank through online option entry, round by round.
91 verified closing ranks (2024) · where the rounds stand · how the process works · check a rank
Undergraduate B.E/B.Tech admission is through KCET, conducted by the Karnataka Examinations Authority, and through COMEDK UGET. A share of seats is also filled under the management/COMEDK-linked quota handled by the college itself. Postgraduate admission follows Karnataka PGCET or a valid GATE score where those programmes are offered. Round-wise closing ranks are published by KEA, and course-wise eligibility and the current schedule are on the college’s own admissions pages.

Questions & Answers
Ask a question →Answered from this college’s verified records — closing ranks and published fees. Not written by students. How we verify data.
- Which entrance exams does Dayananda accept?
- Our verified cut-off records for Dayananda come from KCET. That is what the official publications show; a college may also admit through its own test or a management quota, which those documents do not cover.
- What was the KCET cut-off for Dayananda?
- On the KCET 2024 list, the most competitive General Merit seat at Dayananda closed at rank 18,002 for Artificial Intelligence & ML, from the official Round 1 publication. Closing ranks differ by branch and category — the full table is on this page. These are the ranks at which seats closed that year, not a prediction for this one.
- What is the cut-off for reserved categories at Dayananda?
- We hold verified closing ranks for 8 categories here, including Scheduled Caste, where the tightest seat on the KCET 2024 B.E/B.Tech list closed at rank 61,080. Compare a category column against your category rank, which is a different number from your overall rank.

- On the KCET 2024 list, of 7 branches with verified General Merit figures, each at its latest published round, Artificial Intelligence & ML closed tightest at rank 18,002 and Civil closed widest at 1,36,546. A tighter rank means more competition for that seat, not better teaching.
- What is the annual fee at Dayananda?
- The published annual fee starts at ₹1,20,320 (KEA 2026-27 · General Merit quota). That figure is for a seat allotted through that counselling route — a management-quota seat in the same course typically costs considerably more, and only the college can confirm it.
