Dr. AIT Bangalore Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Why does Dr. AIT have two KCET codes?▾
Dr. AIT has aided seats under code E004 and unaided seats under code E060. An aided seat cost INR 65,500 a year in 2026 to 27, and an unaided seat cost INR 1,29,310. Add both codes to your option list if you want more chances.
Is Dr. AIT a government college?▾
No, but it is a government aided college run by the Panchajanya Vidya Peetha Welfare Trust. That is why some seats carry a lower aided fee. Your degree comes from VTU, a state university.
What happened to Information Science at Dr. AIT?▾
AICTE approved merging Information Science and Engineering into Computer Science and Engineering for 2026 to 27. That is why Computer Science now has 360 seats. If you wanted Information Science, look at the Computer Science seats instead.
What does the SC and ST fee of INR 41,310 cover?▾
It is the full fee you pay at the college, with nothing paid at KEA. Apply for the post matric scholarship on the State Scholarship Portal while you join, so the government pays your tuition fee.
Why does the fee notice say some tuition fee is due?▾
If you claim a government scholarship, the tuition part stays due until the government pays the college. In 2026 to 27 it was INR 24,190 on an aided seat and INR 88,000 on an unaided seat. Keep your scholarship application on time so it is cleared.
I am from outside Karnataka. Do I pay more?▾
Yes. You pay INR 3,600 more as the VTU eligibility fee in the first year. You can still take a COMEDK or management seat, even if you cannot claim a Karnataka KCET seat.
What is the COMEDK code for Dr. AIT?▾
It is E042, taken from the Dr. AIT admission poster. Type it with care in the COMEDK portal, because one wrong digit picks another college. Check the code again in the COMEDK seat list of your year.
How is a COMEDK seat fee paid?▾
For 2026 to 27, you paid INR 3,22,000 at COMEDK and INR 21,310 at the college. A management seat paid the full INR 3,43,310 at the college. Keep both receipts safe.
Is the management fee fixed?▾
The notice says the most a management seat can cost is the COMEDK fee plus a development fee set by the college. Ask for the full amount in writing before you pay anything.
Can I write both KCET and COMEDK UGET?▾
Yes. They are separate exams with separate forms, so you can write both. If you get seats through both, keep only one and cancel the other before the last date.
Which BE branch has the fewest seats?▾
Industrial Engineering and Management has 30 seats. Small branches fill fast in later rounds, so put a branch high in your list if you really want it.
Is Dr. AIT an autonomous college?▾
Yes. Dr. AIT is an autonomous institute affiliated to VTU, Belagavi, with an A grade from NAAC. It sets its own syllabus and exams, and VTU gives your degree.
What is the new VLSI branch in BE?▾
It is Electronics and Communication Engineering with a focus on VLSI Design and Technology, with 60 seats. Pick it if you like chip design. It is a different code from the regular ECE branch in your KEA list.
When did the first semester start last year?▾
The college calendar for 2026 to 27 put the start of the semester in late August and the first lectures in early September. A week long induction followed. Book your travel and hostel room before then.
Is the BE fee for one year or the whole course?▾
The fee notice shows the fee for one year. You pay again each year of your four year BE. Plan your money for all four years, not just the first.
Which government scholarships can I try for?▾
If you are SC, ST, OBC or Category 1, apply on the State Scholarship Portal. Girls can try AICTE Pragati, and students with a disability can try AICTE Saksham. Apply as soon as you join.
Can I get an education loan for BE?▾
Yes. Take your admission order and the fee notice to a bank. A loan does not cut the fee, so plan how you will pay it back after the course.
Will I get money back if I give up my seat?▾
It depends on the round and on who gave you the seat. KEA and COMEDK each print a refund rule for every round. Read it before you cancel, because a late cancellation can cost you the full fee.
Is there a hostel at Dr. AIT?▾
Yes. Boys have three hostels with 283 rooms, and girls have the Chethana hostel with 108 rooms, all on campus. The hostel fee is not printed, so call the warden before you report.
Can I study BBA or BCA here even though it is an engineering college?▾
Yes. AICTE approved BBA and BCA with 60 seats each for 2026 to 27, and the first batch started in Aug 2026. Call the admission office for the form and the fee.
Can I join BE through the evening programme?▾
Only if you hold a diploma and you are working. Dr. AIT runs evening BE in Civil, Mechanical and Electrical, with 30 seats each. Classes are on weekday evenings, so check that your job allows it.
Can foreign or NRI students join Dr. AIT?▾
Yes. Dr. AIT keeps seats under the NRI, PIO and foreign national quota. Write to nriadmissions@drait.edu.in with your documents to start.
Someone is offering me a Dr. AIT seat for money. Is that real?▾
No. You get a seat only through KEA, COMEDK, VTU or the Dr. AIT admission office. Do not pay any agent who promises a seat.
Where is the Dr. AIT campus?▾
Dr. AIT is on the Outer Ring Road near the Jnana Bharathi campus, Mallathahalli, Bengaluru 560056. You report at the college on this campus.
How do I contact the Dr. AIT admissions team?▾
Write to admissions@drait.edu.in or call 97419 40511 for UG and PG management seats. The office is open Monday to Saturday, 9 am to 4:30 pm.
Is a Dr. AIT degree valid across India?▾
Yes. Your degree is given by VTU, a state university, and the courses have AICTE approval. You can use it for jobs, government exams and higher studies anywhere in India.

Dr. AIT Bangalore Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Does a GATE score help me at Dr. AIT for M.Tech?▾
Yes. KEA fills M.Tech seats for GATE holders too, so you can skip PGCET if your GATE score is valid. You still register with KEA to get a seat.
What is the new Robotics and AI M.Tech?▾
It is a new M.Tech branch approved for 2026 to 27 with 18 seats. It suits mechanical, electronics and computer science graduates who like machines that think. Ask the department which BE branches it takes.
Why is the second year management fee so high?▾
In 2025 to 26, a second year management seat paid INR 2,00,000 for M.Tech, MBA and MCA. A PGCET seat paid much less. A good PGCET rank can save you a lot of money.
What is the KEA code for Dr. AIT PG courses?▾
Use T425 for M.Tech and C425 for MBA and MCA. Check the code twice in your option list, because one wrong digit picks another college for you.
What do SC and ST students pay for PG?▾
Your whole first year fee is paid at the college, with nothing at KEA. Apply for the post matric scholarship on the State Scholarship Portal while you join, so the government covers your tuition.
I studied B.Com without Maths in my degree. Can I join MCA?▾
Yes, if you studied Maths in Class 12. Maths in either Class 12 or your degree is enough. Keep your Class 12 marks card ready to show it.
How is the 50% for PG worked out?▾
KEA 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?▾
You can claim reservation in PGCET seats only if you are of Karnataka origin. If you come from another state, plan for 50%.
Is the Dr. AIT MCA accredited?▾
Yes. The National Board of Accreditation lists the MCA among the accredited Dr. AIT programmes. You can ask the department for the latest accreditation letter if you need it.
What is the KEA claim slip?▾
It is the slip you download from the KEA portal after the result. You need it before you can enter your options, so download it as soon as it opens.
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 first. 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 the college will ask you for it.
I have only a provisional degree certificate. Is that enough?▾
Yes, if your final degree certificate is not out yet. Bring the provisional one when you report, and give the final one when your university sends it.
Which M.Tech branch suits a civil engineer?▾
Pick Structural Engineering if you studied civil. The civil department runs it, and you can also work with its teachers on soil, water and remote sensing projects.
Which M.Tech branch suits an electrical graduate?▾
If you studied electrical, Power Electronics fits you best. If you studied electronics, VLSI Design and Embedded Systems is the closer match. Each has 18 seats.
Is there a hostel for PG students?▾
Yes. Dr. AIT has hostels for boys and girls on campus with a south and north Indian mess. The hostel fee is not printed, so ask the warden before you report.
Can I get an education loan for MCA or MBA?▾
Yes. Take your admission order and the fee notice to a bank. A loan does not cut the fee, so plan how you will pay it back.
Will I get money back if I give up my PG seat?▾
If KEA gave you the seat, the refund follows the KEA rule for that round. Read it before you cancel. A late cancellation can cost you the full fee.
Can I pay the PG fee in parts?▾
No. The Dr. AIT fee memo says part payment is not allowed. A fine is added if you pay after the due date, so keep the full amount ready.
How do I pay the college part of the fee?▾
You pay online through the payment link on the Dr. AIT website. If your bank blocks it, you can make an e-challan and pay by NEFT or RTGS before the due date.
Is the MBA a two year course?▾
Yes. The MBA lasts two years, with four semesters under VTU rules. You pay the fee once in each of the two years, so plan for both.
Can foreign or NRI students join a PG course?▾

Dr. AIT Bangalore Admission FAQs
Short answers to what students ask before they apply.
Which subjects have research centres at Dr. AIT?▾
Dr. AIT lists Ph.D work in its engineering branches, Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Computer Applications and Business Administration. Pick the one that matches your master's subject.
Who holds the entrance test for research?▾
VTU holds it, not Dr. AIT. You pass the VTU test first, and then apply to a Dr. AIT research centre.
Is the Ph.D degree given by Dr. AIT or VTU?▾
VTU gives the degree, because Dr. AIT is affiliated to VTU. Your certificate shows the VTU name.
Do I need the VTU test if I cleared UGC NET?▾
VTU lets UGC NET, GATE and SLET holders skip its research test. Keep your score card ready and check the latest VTU notice when you apply.
Who gets the 50% relaxation?▾
Students from reserved groups need 50% in the master's degree instead of 55%. Bring your caste certificate when you apply.
Can I do a Ph.D part time while working?▾
Yes, VTU allows part time research. You need a no objection letter from your employer. Plan your leave for the course work early.
Does Dr. AIT give a fellowship to Ph.D scholars?▾
Dr. AIT 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.
Why is the Ph.D fee not on the Dr. AIT page?▾
The research fee is set by VTU, so the college does not print it. Check the VTU notice for your year before you register.
How do I find a research guide at Dr. AIT?▾
Dr. AIT has a Research Guides page on its website. Read the recent papers of guides in your subject and write to the ones whose work matches your idea.
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.
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.
Is there a hostel for research scholars?▾
Dr. AIT has hostels for boys and girls on campus. Call the warden to ask if a room is free for scholars before you join.
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 Dr. AIT research centre instead.
Can SC and ST research scholars get a scholarship?▾
If you are SC or ST, you can apply for the post matric scholarship on the 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.
Does Dr. AIT have funded research projects?▾
Yes. Dr. AIT lists funded research projects on its website. Joining a guide with a funded project can give you lab time and sometimes a stipend, so ask about it.
Will my thesis be checked for copying?▾
Yes. Every Ph.D thesis is checked for copied text before it goes to the examiners. Write in your own words and cite every source you use.
Can I change my research topic later?▾
Small changes are common, but a big change needs the research committee to agree. Settle your topic with your guide early to save time.
