NOW 12th passed students can clear their confusion about choosing the most suitable engineering college on the basis of their Maharashtra Common Entrance Test (MHT-CET) score using ‘CollegeIntent,’ unique Artificial intelligence (AI) powered website.

Ajinkya Saraf in an exclusive interview with The Hitavada elaborated that the platform caters to students who have given the MHT-CET, a state-level entrance test to select candidates for admission to undergraduate engineering courses. Once the CollegeIntent website is downloaded there are 3 plans to choose from like Basic, Standard and Premium. The application is valid for 4 months (June, July, August and September). “CollegeIntent is India’s most comprehensive online couselling solution for engineering aspirants.

 

Backed by over 25 years of counselling expertise and cutting edge AI analytics, it empowers students to make informed, personalised academic decisions with confidence,” Saraf added. Once students log on the application, they have to provide the required data so that they will get instant recommendations of the most suitable engineering colleges considering ones rank, preference and strength. The application considers CAP round score and cut off marks of all categories till the final round. Students will also get personalised counselling, real time admission updates and one to one expert counselling. In a landscape where decisions are driven by advice or random online tools, CollegeIntent brings a scientific, historical data driven approach to forefront making college selection simple, smarter and stress-free. The application also provides important real time engineering admission updates, form submission dates and changes in cut-off lists delivered to ones WhatsApp and email.

Dr Milind Apte explained that the application recommends the most suitable engineering colleges tailored to one’s rank, category and personal preferences. It leverages vast datasets, including historical cut-offs, seat matrics and thousands of student preference trends to provide accurate suggestions. It also shows the college CAP rounds on the basis of factual data using AI. Ajinkya Saraf has studied at Harvard University, Boston, USA and completed Masters in Education.
