CMRIT Bangalore Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Can I write both KCET and COMEDK UGET?▾
Yes. They are separate exams with separate forms, so you can write both. If you get CMRIT seats through both, keep only one and cancel the other before the last date.
Why do COMEDK students from outside Karnataka pay a little more?▾
The college and university fees are slightly higher for them. CMRIT prints INR 3,57,120 for a student from another state and INR 3,55,320 for a Karnataka student. The gap is INR 1,800 in the first year.
What is an SNQ seat?▾
SNQ seats are extra KCET seats with a much lower fee for students from low income families. At CMRIT, the first year fee on such a seat is INR 53,320. You need an income certificate to claim one.
Can I join CMRIT with only a JEE Main rank?▾
Yes, but only for a management seat, since KEA and COMEDK do not use JEE Main ranks. Upload your JEE Main rank card on admissions.cmrit.ac.in. Ask the office about the management fee first.
What is the difference between CSE (AI and ML) and the AI and ML branch?▾
The first is Computer Science with extra AI and ML subjects. The second is a full branch built around AI and ML. Read the syllabus of both on the CMRIT website, and pick the one whose subjects you enjoy.
Are all BE branches at CMRIT accredited?▾
CMRIT says its BE programmes are accredited by NBA. NBA checks each branch again after a few years, so look at the CMRIT website for the current list before you lock your options.
Which branch should I pick if I like electronics and coding both?▾
Electronics and Communication suits you if circuits, chips and signals excite you. It still teaches coding. If you mostly want software jobs, a computer branch fits better.
I am an NRI. Can I get a BE seat at CMRIT?▾
Yes, through the NRI quota. Children of Indian workers in the Gulf countries can also use it. Bring your passport and your parent's work certificate from abroad.
Who counts as a PIO student?▾
A person who once held an Indian passport, or whose parent or grandparent was an Indian citizen, can apply as PIO. Keep the proof ready in English.
How many photocopies should I carry?▾
CMRIT asks for the original and three copies of every document. Carry five passport size photos and two stamp size photos as well. Keep scanned copies on your phone too.
Do I need a migration certificate?▾
Yes, if you studied Class 12 under a board outside Karnataka. Ask your board or school for it as soon as your result is out, because it can take a few weeks.
Can a diploma holder join BE at CMRIT in the second year?▾
Yes. You write DCET, which KEA holds for diploma students, and then pick CMRIT in KEA counselling. You join in the third semester.
Does CMRIT have a hostel?▾
Yes. CMRIT has hostels for boys and girls. CMRIT has not printed the hostel fee, so call the admission office before you plan your budget.
Is there college transport?▾
Yes. CMRIT runs buses for students. Ask the transport office about the stops near your home and the yearly bus fee.
How do I get a CMRIT scholarship?▾
CMRIT scholarships are for students already studying there. You can apply with 8.0 CGPA or more, a leadership role in a club, or district level sports. Your mentor and head of department sign the form.
Which state scholarship can I apply for?▾
If you are a Karnataka student from SC, ST, OBC or a minority group, apply on the State Scholarship Portal. Keep your caste and income certificate ready. The portal opens for a few months each year.
Can a girl student get an AICTE scholarship?▾
Yes. AICTE Pragati is for girl students in technical courses, if the family income is within the AICTE limit. Apply on the National Scholarship Portal in your first year.
What is the Arivu loan?▾
It is an education loan from the Karnataka government for students from minority groups. CMRIT lists it on its scholarship page. Check the income limit before you apply.
My KCET rank is weak. Should I still keep CMRIT in my options?▾
Yes, if you really want CMRIT. Seats open up again in later rounds when other students leave. Keep CMRIT branches in your list, but also add some safer colleges.
Where do I report after the seat result?▾
Report at the CMRIT admission office on the Kundalahalli campus. Carry the KEA or COMEDK order, the fee receipt and all your originals with three copies.
Who do I email for an admission question?▾
Write to admission@cmrit.ac.in with your name, rank and the branch you want. For a quick answer, call the admission line on 93429 00666.
Someone is offering me a CMRIT seat for money. Is that real?▾
No. You get a seat only through KEA, COMEDK, VTU or the CMRIT admission portal. Do not pay any agent who promises a seat.
Where is the CMRIT campus?▾
CMRIT is at 132 AECS Layout, ITPL Main Road, Kundalahalli, Bengaluru 560037. You report at the admission office on the 8 acre campus.
How do I contact the CMRIT admissions team?▾
You can call 080 28524466, 080 28524477 or 90350 79547, or write to admission@cmrit.ac.in. The admission hotline is 93429 00666.
Is a CMRIT degree valid across India?▾
Yes. CMRIT is approved by AICTE and affiliated to VTU, so your degree comes from a state university. You can use it for jobs and higher studies.

CMRIT Bangalore Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
How is the 50% for PG worked out?▾
The 50% counts your marks over all subjects of all years of your degree, not only the final year. Add up every year before you apply. If you fall short, you cannot take a seat even with a good rank.
Does the 45% rule help students from other states?▾
No. Only students of Karnataka origin can claim reservation. If you come from another state, plan for 50%.
Can I join the CMRIT MBA with a CAT score?▾
Yes, for a management seat. CMRIT takes CAT, CMAT, MAT and KMAT scores. For a KEA seat, you need a Karnataka PGCET rank.
Which MBA areas can I choose at CMRIT?▾
You get a dual specialisation: analytics plus one of marketing, HR or finance. Pick marketing for brands and sales, HR if you like working with people, and finance for banks and markets. Talk to second year students before you choose.
Is Business Analytics hard if I am not good at maths?▾
You need basic maths and comfort with Excel. The course teaches the tools step by step. Practise spreadsheets in the summer before classes start.
How old is the MBA at CMRIT?▾
CMRIT started its MBA in 2002. That means many batches of alumni are already working, so you can ask them about the course.
Can a B.Com student join MCA at CMRIT?▾
Yes. A B.Com counts if Business Maths was one of your degree subjects, or if you took Maths in PUC. Check your marks cards, and keep the syllabus page ready in case CMRIT asks.
I did not study Maths in my degree. Will MCA be tough?▾
CMRIT runs bridge classes in the first semester for students without a Maths background. Attend all of them, and revise Class 12 maths before you join.
Is KMAT accepted for MCA?▾
Yes, for a management seat. CMRIT lists KMAT and PGCET for MCA. CMAT and MAT are listed only for MBA.
Can I get a refund if I leave after joining?▾
CMRIT says it gives no refund after admission. For a KEA seat, KEA has its own rule for each round. Be sure of your choice before you pay.
What is the KEA claim slip?▾
It is the slip you download from the KEA portal after the result. In 2026, it opened on 11 Sep. You need it before you can enter your options.
How should I order my options on the KEA portal?▾
Put the course and college you want most at the top, then go down in order. Try a mock entry at home before the real one. Your first choice gets the first chance.
My university gives CGPA. How is it read as a percentage?▾
You use the conversion rule of the university that gave your degree. Keep a letter or page with that rule ready, because KEA and CMRIT will ask for it.
I have only a provisional degree certificate. Is that enough?▾
Yes, if your final degree certificate is not out yet. CMRIT lists the provisional certificate in its PG document list. Give the final one when your university sends it.
Why does CMRIT ask for a study certificate?▾
It shows you studied at your college for the full course. Ask your college office for it along with the transfer and conduct certificates.
Who decides the management seat at CMRIT?▾
The CMRIT management decides it, and says it can choose who gets a seat. Apply only in the CMRIT format on the admission portal.
Does CMRIT have hostel rooms for PG students?▾
Yes. CMRIT has hostels for boys and girls. It has not printed the hostel fee, so ask the admission office before you join.
Can PG students get a CMRIT scholarship?▾
Yes. CMRIT scholarships are open to UG and PG students already studying there. You can apply with 8.0 CGPA or more, a club leadership role, or district level sports.
Can I get an education loan for an MBA?▾
Yes. CMRIT lists PM Vidyalaxmi and the Karnataka Arivu loan. Take your admission order and fee details to the bank. A loan does not cut the fee.
Can I work part time during the MBA?▾
The MBA is full time, with classes on weekdays. Most students do internships instead. Ask the department about the internship months before you take any job.
Who do I email for a PG admission question?▾
Write to admission@cmrit.ac.in with your name, test score and the course you want. You can also call 080 28524466 during office hours.
Someone is offering me a CMRIT seat for money. Is that real?▾
No. You get a seat only through KEA, COMEDK, VTU or the CMRIT admission portal. Do not pay any agent who promises a seat.

CMRIT Bangalore Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Which departments take Ph.D scholars at CMRIT?▾
Pick the centre that matches your master's subject. Engineering scholars go to Computer Science or Electronics, science scholars to Maths, Physics or Chemistry. MCA holders go to Computer Applications, and MBA holders to Business Administration.
Who holds the entrance test for research?▾
VTU holds it, not CMRIT. You pass the VTU test first, and then apply to a CMRIT research centre.
Is the Ph.D degree given by CMRIT or VTU?▾
VTU gives the degree, because CMRIT is affiliated to VTU. Your certificate shows the VTU name.
Can I apply with first class in my BE but not in my M.Tech?▾
Yes. VTU asks for 6.75 CGPA or first class in either the bachelor's or the master's degree. Keep both marks cards ready.
Who gets the 5% relaxation?▾
The Karnataka government decides who is in each reserved group. If you claim the lower marks, bring a valid caste or disability certificate when you apply. Without it, the general rule applies to you.
Can I do a Ph.D part time while working?▾
Yes. Get a no objection letter from your employer before you apply. Plan leave for course work and the committee meetings, because they happen on working days.
Does CMRIT give a fellowship to Ph.D scholars?▾
CMRIT has not printed a fellowship for research scholars. If you hold a UGC or CSIR fellowship, you can bring it with you. Ask your guide about project funding too.
Can I do a Ph.D in management at CMRIT?▾
Yes. Business Administration is one of the CMRIT research centres. You need an MBA or a matching master's degree.
Can I do a Ph.D in computer applications?▾
Yes. The Department of MCA is a CMRIT research centre. An MCA or a master's in computer science is the usual start.
Can I do a Ph.D in Physics, Chemistry or Maths?▾
Yes. CMRIT has research centres in all three. You need a master's degree in that subject with the required marks.
Can I do a Ph.D in Civil or Mechanical Engineering here?▾
CMRIT does not list these on its current research centre list. Check the VTU list of research centres for those subjects before you apply.
What should I bring to the research committee meeting?▾
Bring your research idea, your master's marks cards and a photo ID. Be ready to explain why the topic matters and how you will do it.
How do I pick a research guide?▾
Read the recent papers of teachers in your department and write to the ones whose work matches your idea. A guide who has time for you matters more than a famous name.
Do I need a migration certificate for the Ph.D?▾
Yes, if your master's degree is from a university other than VTU. Apply for it as soon as you are selected.
Can I get an education loan for research?▾
Yes, a bank can give one with your admission letter. A loan does not cut the fee, so plan the repayment.
Does CMRIT have a hostel for research scholars?▾
CMRIT has hostels for boys and girls. Ask the admission office if a room is free for research scholars.
Is the research path different from PG admission?▾
Yes. Research seats do not go through KEA or PGCET. You go through the VTU test and the CMRIT research centre instead.
Can SC and ST research scholars get a scholarship?▾
If you are SC or ST, you can apply on the Karnataka State Scholarship Portal. Keep your caste and income certificate ready.
How long does a Ph.D take?▾
VTU sets the minimum and maximum years for a Ph.D. Most scholars finish in three to five years, so plan your time and money for that.
Can I do course work while working?▾
Ask the research centre about the timing before you register. You must attend the course work and pass it, so plan your leave early.
Should I write a research proposal before I apply?▾
Yes. A short proposal of two or three pages helps the committee and your guide see your idea. Keep it simple: the problem, why it matters and how you will study it.
Someone is offering me a CMRIT seat for money. Is that real?▾
No. You get a seat only through KEA, COMEDK, VTU or the CMRIT admission portal. Do not pay any agent who promises a seat.
Where is the CMRIT campus?▾
CMRIT is at 132 AECS Layout, ITPL Main Road, Kundalahalli, Bengaluru 560037. You report at the admission office on the 8 acre campus.
How do I contact the CMRIT admissions team?▾

Is a CMRIT degree valid across India?▾
Yes. CMRIT is approved by AICTE and affiliated to VTU, so your degree comes from a state university. You can use it for jobs and higher studies.
