An applicant with a CET score of 112 applied for mechanical engineering at VPKBIET College through the DTE website and secured admission under the TFWS (Tuition Fee Waiver Scheme). The college faculty is generally supportive, with effective teaching skills, though some partiality issues were noted. The fee structure is considered fair, with open category fees ranging from 54,000 to 60,000 INR, and EBC schemes available for partial refunds. TFWS students pay 32,000 INR for the entire course.
Historically, limited placement opportunities have improved, with about 50% of students securing jobs, especially those with a CGPA of 8.0 or above, though the criteria start at 7.5 CGPA. Most placements are in IT companies. Scholarships are available for various categories, including OBC, EBC, NT, ST, SC, and EWS for open category students. SC and ST students can pay reduced fees with needed documentation. Without financial aid, the typical fee is 104,274 INR, but merit-based admissions reduce it to 60,000 INR, and for TFWS it's 16,999 INR.
Additional costs include a hostel fee of 25,000 INR and mess fees of 26,000 INR annually, which are mitigated by financial aids to ease the financial burden on students.
