Hello,

Yes, you can definitely join an engineering college without taking the EAMCET. Many colleges conduct their own entrance exams that candidates need to pass to secure a seat. Exams like COMEDK, SRMJEEE, and VITEEE are alternatives to the JEE. Even IIIT Hyderabad has its own entrance exam. Additionally, in Andhra Pradesh, there are private colleges with their own entrance exams. I encourage you to aim high!
