Admission Process

How to get in

The routes this site holds official data for at PDACE. Each figure links to the table it comes from.

Poojya Doddappa Appa College of Engineering, an autonomous institution affiliated to VTU, admits B.E./B.Tech students through KCET and COMEDK rank lists along with management quota seats, while also running its own autonomous admission scheme for a portion of seats. MBA and MCA admissions follow separate state or university-level entrance processes. Applicants should refer to the official website for current eligibility, entrance details, and counselling schedules.

Documents you’ll need to carry

  • COMEDK UGET admit card
  • COMEDK rank card / scorecard
  • SSLC / 10th standard marks card
  • 2nd PUC / 12th standard marks card
  • Government photo ID (Aadhaar / passport)
  • Two recent passport-size photographs
  • Seat allotment letter (at the time of reporting)

This is the list Karnataka counselling generally asks for. The exact set can change each cycle — confirm the current-year requirements in the official notification before you report.
