Sharad Institute of Technology, College of Engineering Kolhapur Admission 2024 - Dates, Form, Online Process, Fees

The Sharad Institute of Technology College of Engineering was founded in 2009. It is approved by the AICTE, New Delhi, and the Directorate of Technical Education (DTE), Mumbai. The college is strictly adhering to the laws and guidelines established by the Maharashtra government when conducting the SITCOE admissions process for first-year engineering students and direct second-year engineering students. Every year, the rules and regulations as well as a schedule are published by the Directorate of Technical Education (DTE) Mumbai and the State CET Cell to outline the admissions process. 

Since the Sharad Institute of Technology College of Engineering Kolhapur is a privately run, independently funded institution, all of the guidelines established for this classification apply to admission. The State CET Cell conducts various CAP (Centralized Admission Process) rounds to fill 80% of the first-year engineering seats, and the remaining 20% of institute-level seats are filled in accordance with section 7 rules (4). All seats for the direct second year (lateral entry) are filled exclusively through CAP rounds. After all steps in the SITCOE Kolhapur admission process have been completed, the Admission Regulation Authority (ARA) and DTE check the documents of accepted students and grant approval for the students to enrol in courses.

About eighty per cent of the first-year engineering seats are filled through various rounds of the CAP (Centralized Admission Process), and the remaining twenty per cent of institute-level seats are filled in accordance with section 7 regulations (4).
