Tuition fee
The students who have qualified in EAMCET and able to pay tuition fee have already joined colleges in other states due to the special situation prevailing here.There are 40,000 students who got 35 marks in EAMCET and having more than 45 percent in Intermediate are waiting for admission to B.Tech.

“In many States there is only cut-Off either in plus two or Common Entrance Test (CET) But only in A.P. we have two cut-Off both in Inter and EAMCET they said adding that this has worked against the interest of students.

They reminded that the AICTE has fixed 50 percent as cut –off in plus two and reduced it to 45 percent to make technical education more accessible.
