The RNS Institute of Technology (RNSIT) Bangalore cutoff 2026 is projected to tighten slightly across top engineering branches, reflecting a steady rise in demand and higher applicant quality. Based on KEA and COMEDK 2025 trends, the KCET Round 1 cutoff for B.E. CSE is expected to close around 10,500 (GM category) — about 8% lower than 2025 — owing to increased normalization and stronger 80th-percentile scorers. Similarly, ECE and ISE are expected to fall between 13,000 and 15,000, while AI & ML and Data Science specializations could hover near 18,000–20,000 in Round 1.
Under COMEDK, the CSE cutoff may stabilize near 17,000, factoring a 15% rise in test-takers from outside Karnataka. Core branches like Mechanical and Civil Engineering are projected to ease slightly, closing around 50,000–60,000, driven by shifting preferences toward software-centric programs. In postgraduate streams, the PGCET MBA cutoff could tighten to 2,100, and MCA to 850, following increased intake and analytics-based curriculum focus.
Overall, aspirants should benchmark against KCET ranks below 12,000 or COMEDK below 18,000 for a strong chance in CSE-linked tracks. Early documentation and category verification remain key, as Round 1 fills 70% of seats and the 2026 cycle will likely see higher competition in AI and Data verticals due to enhanced placement outcomes.
