2,500 Rank in TG EAPCET — FAQs
Which CSE (Cyber Security) colleges can I get with 2,500 rank in TG EAPCET?
Based on official 2025–26 convener-quota closing ranks, 35 Telangana colleges closed CSE (Cyber Security) at or beyond rank 2,500 for OC — including VNR Vignana Jyothi Institute of Engineering and Technology, JNTUH College of Engineering, Hyderabad, CVR College of Engineering. Cutoffs shift every year, so treat these as realistic targets rather than guarantees.
Is 2,500 a good rank in TG EAPCET 2026?
It depends on the branch and category. For CSE (Cyber Security), 35 colleges were reachable at this rank for OC candidates in 2025–26. Reserved-category (BC, SC, ST, EWS) closing ranks are substantially higher than OC, so the same rank reaches more colleges in those categories.
Do these cutoffs apply to all categories?
No — the table on this page uses OC (boys) closing ranks as the reference. Closing ranks for BC-A/B/C/D/E, SC, ST and EWS are higher (more lenient), and girls' closing ranks also differ. Use the TeluguColleges EAPCET predictor for a list matched to your exact category and gender.
When is TG EAPCET 2026 counselling?
Phase-2 registration and slot booking open July 17, certificate verification July 18, and fresh web options July 18–19 (Phase-1 options don't carry over). Phase-2 allotment is due by July 22. Official closing ranks for 2026 are published after each allotment round.
Methodology: closing ranks are sourced from official TSCHE / JNTU Hyderabad last-rank statements for 2025–26. Reference data is OC (boys) — actual cutoffs vary by category and gender, and the convenor-quota cutoffs in 2026 may shift higher or lower than the reference year. Use this list as a shortlist for further research, not as an admission guarantee.
