Hello student,

Yes, it is possible to join a degree college without applying through DOST (Degree Online Services Telangana), particularly for management quota or spot admissions.

While DOST is the primary platform for government and aided seats, some private colleges offer direct admissions outside the DOST process, especially if they have vacant seats.

If you are targeting government or aided seats, it is strongly advised to apply through DOST.

If you are interested in private colleges and are open to management quota or spot admissions, you can explore options outside the DOST process.

Always check with the specific college you are interested in for their admission procedures and whether they offer direct admission options.

Thank you!!
