More than 26,000 engineering seats are likely to be offered through the COMEDK counselling process for the 2026-27 academic session across approximately 150 participating institutions in Karnataka.
Among the most sought-after colleges accepting COMEDK scores are RV College of Engineering, BMS College of Engineering, and MS Ramaiah Institute of Technology, which continue to attract strong demand from engineering aspirants.
COMEDK 2025 counselling reaffirmed the strong preference for Computer science engineering (CSE) and related branches among engineering aspirants. Across participating colleges, CSE and its emerging specialisations continued to attract the highest demand, resulting in some of the most competitive closing ranks.
The closing ranks for CSE and related branches at top engineering colleges are presented in the table below:
College | Core CSE | CSE (AI&ML) | CSE (Data Science) |
|---|---|---|---|
RV College of Engineering (RVCE) | 692 | 950 | 1,150 |
M.S. Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) | 1,667 | 2,200 | 2,450 |
