Ans: Anitha Madam,
She should appear for (minimum) 5-7 Entrance Exams to get admission into any one of the Engineering Colleges in India. Some of them are:
1) JEE
2) COMEDK (Karnataka Colleges)
3) PESSAT (PES University / Bengaluru)
4) SRMJEE (SRM Colleges in Chennai/India)
5) AEEE (Amrita College)
6) VITEE (VIT College)
7) BITSAT (for Birla Institute of Technology)
8) CUET (if she prefers 3-year Degree programs with any one of the 20 Central Universities of India)
Or through the Management Quota, the capitation / annual fees depends upon the College / Location / Stream she prefers.
OCI Reservation is applicable for some of the Entrance Exams mentioned above. However, there will be competition for OCI seats also especially for the national level exams like JEE. Please check the respective websites to know in detail about OCI Reservation.
All the BEST for Your Daughter's Bright Future.
