Hello Pranav,

With a KCET rank of 28,220 under the SC category, admission to B.Tech in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is possible mainly in private or aided colleges in Karnataka. Admission in top government colleges is unlikely as their closing ranks are usually much better.

Some colleges where your rank might be considered include Siddaganga Institute of Technology (Tumkur), Dr. Ambedkar Institute of Technology (Bangalore), KLE Technological University (Hubli), BMS Institute of Technology (Bangalore), and New Horizon College of Engineering (Bangalore). These are approximate suggestions based on previous years.

Fee structure varies: government colleges charge about Rs. 24,000 per year in tuition, while private colleges may charge between Rs. 83,000 and Rs. 90,000 per year. Hostel fees range from Rs. 15,000 to Rs. 25,000 annually in government colleges and Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 50,000 in private colleges, depending on facilities.

It is advisable to participate actively in KCET counseling and also consider related branches like Information Science or Data Science if AI & ML seats are limited.

I would recommend you to use KCET College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank.
