If you are aiming to get a scholarship for Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham through the AEEE exam, here are the important points to understand:

• Scholarship Seats Distribution:
  Scholarships at Amrita are provided under the Merit-cum-Scholarship scheme based on AEEE ranks. Approximately top 30%-40% of admitted students receive scholarships based on their AEEE performance.

• General Rank Targets for CSE (Highly Competitive Branch):

  • To get a Category 1 scholarship (highest scholarship with very low fees), you need to secure a rank within top 2000 in AEEE.

    Recommended

  • For a Category 2 scholarship (slightly higher fees than Category 1), usually ranks up to 3000-4000 are considered.

  • For Category 3 and Category 4 scholarships (where the fees are higher but still discounted compared to the full fee), ranks up to 6000-8000 might get eligible.

• Fee Structure Based on Category:

  • Category 1: Lowest fees (significant scholarship).

  • Category 2 and 3: Moderate scholarship (medium fees).

  • Category 4 and 5: Minimal or no scholarship (full fees applicable).

• Specific Notes for CSE Branch:
  CSE is one of the most demanded branches in Amrita, especially in campuses like Coimbatore. Therefore, higher AEEE scores are necessary compared to other branches to secure a scholarship.

• Important Tips:

  • Target scoring above 85%-90% marks in the AEEE exam to maximize your chance for top scholarships.

  • Regularly check the official Amrita admissions portal for updates about scholarship cut-offs and fee structures.

• Alternative Paths:
  Even if your AEEE rank is slightly lower, sometimes through JEE Main score admissions at Amrita, you can also be eligible for scholarships.

• Final Reminder:
  Scholarships depend on the cut-off ranks which can vary slightly every year based on the difficulty level of AEEE and the number of applicants. It’s always best to aim for the highest possible score!

• Extra Tip:
  "Focus on time management and practicing previous year question papers, as consistent practice can significantly boost your AEEE score and improve your chances for a higher scholarship."
