Is this page only for JoSAA-counselled institutes?

No. It includes every institute with an engineering programme in our directory — JoSAA-admitted institutes (IITs/NITs/IIITs/GFTIs) as well as institutes reached through their own entrance exam or state counselling. The admission pathway is labelled per institute where we have it.

Why is engineering the largest section of Knwdle?

Our directory started from the JoSAA dataset and NIRF's Engineering ranking category, so engineering institutes have the deepest, longest-running coverage — more NIRF-ranked entries and more JoSAA cutoff rows than any other discipline page.

Can I check my admission chances here?

This page lists and ranks institutes; for a rank-based chance estimate, use the College Predictor, which reads the same JoSAA cutoff data linked from each institute profile.

Do you show placement packages for engineering colleges?

No — we show NIRF's Graduation Outcomes (GO) sub-score where published instead of self-reported placement figures, for the same reason we exclude them everywhere else on Knwdle.

Overview

Engineering — B.Tech and B.E. — is the original and still the largest discipline in Knwdle's directory, built on the JoSAA counselling dataset and NIRF's Engineering ranking category. Institutes here are admitted mainly through JoSAA (IITs, NITs, IIITs and GFTIs) or through their own or state-level entrance exams, which covers most private and state universities.

Because this is the discipline our underlying dataset was built for, it has the deepest coverage on this site — the most institutes, the most NIRF-ranked entries, and the most JoSAA cutoff rows. If you already have a JEE Main or Advanced rank, cross-check it against the College Predictor rather than reading rank order alone as an admission guarantee.
