The Tamil Nadu Engineering Counseling (TNEA) manages the admission process, and community rank can influence admission outcomes. Each program generally offers 60 seats. The faculty is highly qualified, with all professors holding Ph.D.
degrees, and they provide strong academic and personal support to students. The fee structure is affordable, with day scholars paying around 78,000 INR over four years, and hostellers paying about 4 lakhs INR. NRI students have higher fees, averaging 5 lakh INR annually. Scholarships like the FFE (40,000 INR annually) and Amitha (20,000 INR annually) help reduce costs. The college facilitates internships and offers high-paying job opportunities through campus placements with major recruiters like Amazon, VISA, and Adobe, which offers the highest recorded package of 40 LPA.
