The Karnataka Religious & Linguistic Minority Colleges Association, Bangalore, has been in operation since January 2004 and serves the needs of Karnataka’s minority applicants
for engineering programmes. The association featured three Medical Colleges, five Dental Colleges, and nine Engineering Colleges. Currently, the association is responsible for allotting seats to the engineering programme only.
As per the order of the honourable supreme court, only NEET should be considered for admission to MBBS or BDS programmes. No other examinations shall be permitted for admission to MBBS or BDS programmes by any private/deemed university or association. Hence, KRLMPCA will not be holding any entrance exams or counselling for MBBS/BDS programmes for 2023–2024. KRLMPCA shall only be conducting an engineering entrance test.
The association conducts KRLMPCA CET 2023 to fill the Bachelor of Engineering course seats open at the member institutions. Let us know more about KRLMPCA CET dates, pattern, eligibility criteria, syllabus, results and counselling process.
