There are two ways to get admission at Vasavi College of Engineering:

• Convenor quota: 70% of seats come under this category and the fee is 1.6 lakhs per year
• B-CAT: The remaining 30% of seats are filled through this.

In B-CAT, 15% of the seats are for JEE Main qualified students and 15% of seats are for NRI students. The merit list for the students applying through NRI sponsored is prepared as per their IPE marks. The fee under this category is 5000USD. This amount is to be paid by an NRI student to the college.

Students getting admission based on their JEE Mains marks are charged the same fee as Convenor quota which is Rs. 1.6 lakhs per year.

Vasavi College of Engineering has been bestowed with an experienced faculty and an extremely good placement report over time. 

• The students of this institute are greatly disciplined as well.
• The major upside of Vasavi College of Engineering comes with the training it provides. Both on the enhancement of several soft skills and communication skills. 
• It offers open elective courses to students for creating a knowledge base in allied courses. 
• The institute encourages Campus Recruitment Training (CRT) following the sixth semester for making students industry-ready when placement offers to drive in. 
• Alongside many other advantages, it offers interested students coaching for the preparation of CAT as well. 

Make an informed decision while choosing between the two. Hope this helps in answering your query.

There are 3 ways through which you can enter Vasavi College of Engineering (VCE). These are EAMCET, JEE Mains, or NRI / NRI Sponsored.

• If you opt to apply through EAMCET, you will need an excellent EAMCET score in order to be admitted to VCE. 
• If you are non-local, you are only eligible to fill 15% of the total seats under the convenor category. 85% seats are reserved for locals. 
• CSE, IT, and ECE disciplines may require a triple-digit rank. 
• As one of my friends scored 55, 153 AIR in Mains 18 and applied under B-CAT, he was offered Mechanical and he accepted it.
• The best thing about B-CAT admissions is that there are no reservations and the cost structure is the same as for EAMCET applicants, which is now 1.6 LPA. 
• In the month of June, the college issues notification for B-CAT applicants, which you'll check on the official website. 
• You must pay the application cost, and register as an applicant, providing all of your information (JEE Rank, XII Marks, etc.). 
• The fourth option is to apply through the NRI category, which follows the same method as the Mains application.
• However, you would be admitted based on a merit list of XII marks obtained. It is extremely difficult to get a seat in the CSE branch.
• Last year's NRI cutoff for CSE was around 97% and there are similar trends for ECE and IT as well. 
• Mechanical and Civil have comparatively low cutoffs around 75 percent.

So, a Maharashtrian candidate is eligible to enroll at Vasavi College of Engineering if you go through any of the ways mentioned above.

None of the faculty can be characterized as the best and worst. Teaching as a profession is not taken up by professors who would go down the lane to be known as the worst faculty. 

However, there might be some faculty members who would inspire you, who would push you to venture into new fields of skills, some might even bore you with their lectures and you might even come across some strict ones. It is all just the pressure of standing on the podium to impart knowledge to the students on a large scale.

Moreover, college is to learn new skills and make use of the available facilities and experiences provided by the faculty as per one’s requirements. 

Vasavi College of Engineering has some of the best faculty. They are highly educated and experienced. Ramana Murthy Sir (Mech HOD/ Principal), AV Rao Sir, Ram Mohan Rao Sir, Veladri Sir, Venkataiah Sir, Sudhakar Sir are a few names of the members of a tremendous faculty.

A few of my friends graduated from Vasavi College of Engineering, here are some tips for you. 

• Have a 100% attendance track record. Attending the classes regularly will help you cover understanding the concepts.
• Follow the teacher and you will not miss out or lag.
• Maximum of the learning should be done in the classroom only. Clarify all your doubts.
• Do not neglect any quiz/ assignment/ internals/ end sem exams conducted.
• Sit in the first or second row to concentrate better.
• Irrespective of the above, you should have it in your brain to get more CGPA. Then only the brain can implement and you can execute it.

These were some tips that you can follow to increase your GPA. Perform your best. All the best!

Some of my friends are from Vasavi Engineering College. According to them, there are different parameters to decide which among all the mobile networks work best. Here is a brief overview of what I have learned from them:

• In the CV Raman Block, which is for the Mechanical department, mobile networks like Airtel, Idea, and Vodafone work better than most others. 
• Networks like Airtel, Jio, and Idea seamlessly provide the best speed around these two places. 
• When coming down to the Mechanical and Civil labs, networks like Jio, Idea, and Airtel work the best.
• Airtel, however, is considered to provide the best network speed in the Ramanujan block, where the CSE and IT blocks are situated.
• For both the first-year students and the Civil block in the Vishveshwarya area, Airtel works best by all means. Idea and Jio can be considered second in this list.
• In the JC Bose block, established rather for the EEE and ECE block, Airtel and Idea do work reasonably well.

These are some of the facts I got to know from my friends studying there.

Yes, there are two fresher’s welcome parties at Vasavi College of Engineering. The college arranges the fresher’s party after 3 months of commencement of the course. It is for first-year and second-year students. There are cultural programs, Mr. Freshers & Miss Freshers competition, etc. 

2nd-year seniors also arrange a fresher’s party for their respective branches. Second-year and first-year students contribute to arrange these parties and attending are not compulsory.

More than 50 companies visit the campus during the placement drive. If you have more than 60% marks then you will be allowed to sit for the placements. 

You can sit for as many placement rounds as you want even if you have secured a job offer from another company. You can attend a few placement rounds of companies that come for other core branches such as mechanical and civil.

Hope this helps!

There are some ground rules in Vasavi College of Engineering, which are as follows –

• College ID Card: No matter who you are if you don’t have a college ID you are not allowed to enter into college. In case If you lose/ forget it, you have to write a letter.
• Attendance: You have to maintain a minimum of 75% attendance. If you fail to do so you have to submit a medical certificate even if it is 1% less but if the attendance is below 65% it will be denied. There will be proctors who monitor your attendance once every few months and if It's not your day, then your parent/ guardian might receive a call.
• Punctuality: If you are late to college by 15 minutes, your ID card will be swiped which implies you will not be given first-hour attendance even if someone gives a proxy.
• No open gate system: You cannot come and go as you wish. Once you enter the college, you are not allowed to leave the college without permission during working hours. Nevertheless, you are allowed to go out during lunch hour from 2nd year.

If you find these rules to be strict, then you have to struggle initially to get accustomed. Once you get used to these, you will have a different perception from what you had initially.

Vasavi College of Engineering is better. It has better faculty than VNR Vignana Jyothi College of Engineering and that the record of placements of the former is also superior. According to 2021 placement highlights, the highest and lowest CTC offered at Vasavi are 21 LPA and 3.5 LPA respectively. 

Vasavi boasts of having a good library and classes for exclusive employability are also conducted here. The faculty is also very supportive and experienced. 

The cons of being a Vasavi College of Engineering, however, are as follows.

• There is not much availability of freedom at Vasavi.
• No availability of wifi for the students.
• The campus is small.
• VNR provides more opportunities in sports. 

Both colleges have their share of advantages and disadvantages, but overall Vasavi is the better option.
