KEA college codes
The E-codes option entry runs on, matched to their colleges — and an honest list of the ones we will not resolve.
In short
KEA’s option entry takes college codes, not names — one wrong code is one wrong preference. This table matches 171 of KEA’s engineering codes to the colleges in this directory, each linking to its verified cut-offs. A further 71 codes are listed below as unresolved, with the reason for each.
Codes are read from KEA’s 2026 Round-1 engineering cut-off publications, and every mapping below was checked by hand against KEA’s own printed college name and address before it was trusted — the same map that decides which college each transcribed closing rank belongs to. Always confirm a code against KEA’s current list before entering it: the UGCET portal is the authority.
Resolved codes (171)
Unresolved codes (71)
These appear in KEA’s publication but are deliberately not matched to a college here. Most are dual codes — one college running two seat pools under two codes, where the PDF does not say which is which — or institutions absent from this directory, or architecture programmes. A near-miss would be a wrong answer, so they stay unresolved.
