SRM University AP runs a merit-based scholarship programme with tuition waivers up to 100% for top SRMJEEE, JEE Main and AP EAPCET rank holders. Scholarship slabs typically cover 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% of tuition based on rank or percentile — top SRMJEEE rank holders in the low hundreds and JEE Main 99+ percentile candidates are eligible for full waivers. Sports scholarships, sibling concessions and SC/ST/OBC state and central post-matric scholarships are also available, and M.Tech candidates often receive 100% tuition waiver plus a monthly stipend under specific research tracks. Renewal requires minimum CGPA and conduct standards each year.

B.Tech admission at SRM University AP is primarily via SRMJEEE 2026. Register on srmap.edu.in and pay the ₹1,400 application fee; the test runs in three phases — Phase I between 23-29 April 2026, Phase II in mid-June 2026 and Phase III in early July 2026. SRMJEEE is computer-based, remote-proctored, 2 hours 30 minutes long and includes 125 MCQs across Physics (35), Chemistry (35), Mathematics or Biology (40) and English plus Aptitude (15). Counselling is online with rank-based choice filling, seat allotment and document verification. JEE Main and AP EAPCET ranks are also accepted alongside Class XII board marks (85%+ PCM) for direct admission.

Reported SRMJEEE 2025 closing ranks at SRM University AP put Core CSE and CSE-AI & ML at around rank 8,000-10,000, CSE specialisations (Cyber Security, Data Science, Cloud, Blockchain, Big Data) at 10,000-12,000, ECE between 10,000-27,000, Mechanical 20,000-25,000, EEE 25,000-34,000, and Civil, Biotechnology and Chemical above 40,000. This makes SRM AP noticeably more accessible than SRMIST Kattankulathur Chennai (Core CSE closes near SRMJEEE 5,000-8,000) while still offering the SRM Group curriculum and industry network. Direct admission via Class XII board marks typically requires 85%+ aggregate in PCM.
