Yes, since your home is far from the college, you may be eligible for hostel accommodation at Government Polytechnic College, Alapur, Budaun. Most government polytechnic colleges provide hostel facilities to outstation students based on availability and distance from home. You should contact the college administration or hostel warden as soon as possible to apply for a seat in the hostel. Carry your admission proof and ID documents while applying.

Hii,

If you’re taken commerce in your class 12 and want to pursue a diploma in civil engineering, that’s definitely possible especially if you're passionate about building and designing structures. Many polytechnic colleges offer 3-year diploma courses in civil engineering that are open to students who’ve completed their 10th standard, but some institutes also allow 12th-pass students from other streams like commerce based on entrance tests or direct admission.

After your diploma, you can either start working as a junior engineer or site supervisor, or go for a lateral entry into a B.Tech/B.E. program in civil engineering. That means you’ll directly enter the second year of the degree course.

Thank you!

Hello,

Civil engineering can be a good choice for the future, especially if you're someone who enjoys designing, or working on real-world infrastructure like roads, buildings, and bridges. It’s one of the core engineering branches and has steady demand, particularly in government sectors like PWD, Railways, and even in private construction companies. The starting salary might not be as high as IT or CS fields, and the work often involves field visits, sometimes in remote areas. So, if you're okay with hands-on work and not just sitting at a desk, this field can offer a meaningful and stable career. And with further studies like M.Tech or MBA, you can grow even faster. Ultimately, it's a good option just make sure your interest matches the nature of the work.

Thank you!

With a CRL rank of 458905 and being an ST female candidate from Telangana, your chances in top NITs are very low. But you may still have chances in newer or North-Eastern NITs under the ST category and gender quota—especially in Civil or less-demanded branches.

Hi,

With a 68th percentile in MHT CET under the Open category, you do have chances of getting admission into Civil Engineering in some good colleges in Pune, but top-tier colleges might be difficult to get at this percentile.

First, you have to understand how percentile works. A 68th percentile means your score is better than 68% of the students who appeared for the exam. Your exact rank will be calculated out of the total number of test takers, and cutoffs are released in ranks, not percentiles. In Pune, many private and semi-government colleges offer Civil Engineering, and the cutoffs vary based on the Institute type, whether it's an autonomous/government/private ,College reputation, and Previous year trends.

At 68 percentile, you can get a chance in the following types of colleges: Private colleges or recently established institutes, some autonomous colleges’ lower branches, or less preferred rounds, through Management quota seats as their fees may be higher.

Some Pune colleges where you can try for Civil Engineering:

D.Y. Patil Institute of Engineering & Technology, Pimpri

Sinhgad College of Engineering later rounds or institute-level seats

Pimpri Chinchwad College of Engineering research

Jayawantrao Sawant College of Engineering

Zeal College of Engineering and Research

You may not get top choices like COEP, VIT Pune, or MIT-WPU at this percentile, but wait for CAP Round 2 or 3, and also explore institute-level seats and counselling vacancy rounds.

If you’re flexible about branch or college, you can still get a decent civil engineering seat. You should also apply early in the counselling rounds to improve your chances.
