Direct admission in RV College of Engineering 2027 means securing a B.E. seat at RVCE, Bengaluru, through the college’s management quota (or NRI quota) instead of a KCET or COMEDK rank. You still need to meet the basic eligibility, a pass in Class 12 with Physics and Mathematics and at least 45% in PCM (40% for reserved categories), but the seat is allotted on availability, not on entrance rank.
