COEP Pune Engineering and Architecture Courses & Fees 2025

Hello Bhakti,

First of all, Congrats on scoring 85 percentile in JEE Mains ! Now, coming to the question of whether you can get admission into COEP with that percentile honestly, it’s a bit difficult especially if you belong to general category.

COEP is one of the top engineering colleges in Maharashtra and is now even an autonomous university (COEP Tech). Because of its reputation, the cutoffs for branches like Computer Science, IT, and Mechanical are usually very high often above 97–98 percentile for open category students. Even for reserved categories like SC, ST, or OBC, the cutoffs remain in the high 80s to mid-90s range depending on the branch. You can still explore the later CAP rounds, where cutoffs sometimes drop a little, and also look into other colleges under the same state technical education system, like:

VJTI Mumbai , Walchand College of Engineering, Sangli or Pune Institute of Computer Technology.

If you're from a reserved category, your chances improve significantly. Also, if you’re flexible with branches like Civil or Production, it might be worth trying.

Hope you will find it helpful!
