College Directory

Coverage note: JNTUA (Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh) Engineering colleges: 3 constituent (Ananthapuramu, Pulivendula, Kalikiri) + 84 affiliated, sourced from jntua.ac.in's own official pages. Excludes JNTUA-OTPRI (Oil Technology and Pharmaceutical Research Institute), the 4th constituent unit -- a research institute (est. 1948 as OTRI, renamed 2016), not a B.Tech engineering college, same reasoning as excluding pharmacy-only constituent colleges at JNTUK/JNTUH. Affiliated colleges are from the 5 official per-district pages linked from jntua.ac.in's own 'Affiliated Colleges' index -- Anantapur, Chittoor, Y.S.R, Kurnool, Nellore -- which render as a JavaScript app shell under plain HTTP fetch and required browser rendering to read. Filtered to Engineering only: excludes 17 Pharmacy and 21 Management/MBA/MCA/PG colleges on the same 5 pages. 17 ambiguous names (Group of Institutions / 'Technology and Management' / 'IT and Management' / PG College phrasing that didn't resolve from the name alone) were checked individually against each institution's own website rather than guessed; the resulting classifications and any umbrella-org double-count risk are recorded per-record in `notes`. Two on-page exact-duplicate rows (Annamacharya P.G. College of Computer Studies on the Y.S.R page; Master Institute of Management Science and Technology on the Nellore page) were deduped to one record each -- both are non-Engineering entries excluded from this dataset regardless. VINTAGE: none of the 5 district pages carries an explicit academic-year label. All 5 report an identical document Last-Modified of 2025-11-26 (likely a site-wide rebuild date, not necessarily a per-page data-curation date). No colleges on the current live Y.S.R page carry an asterisk/provisional-code marker, despite earlier sourcing notes describing such a marker and a 2021 date signal on that page -- the live page as fetched (July 2026) shows neither, consistent with the site having been rebuilt/edited since. jntua.ac.in's navigation lists four additional new-district page names (Annamayya, Nandyal, Sri Sathya Sai, Tirupati -- the districts carved out of Anantapur/Kurnool/Y.S.R/Chittoor in Andhra Pradesh's 2022 reorganization) as plain, non-linked menu text; the corresponding URLs (e.g. affiliated-colleges-annamayya) 404, confirming the 5 old-district pages are still the university's actual, complete, live source. CROSS-CHECK: this dataset counts 84 affiliated Engineering colleges. JNTUA's own homepage states 98 affiliated Engineering colleges (also citing 33 Pharmacy and 29 MBA/MCA, versus 17 and 21 counted on these same 5 pages). This does NOT converge, unlike JNTUH's list (137 vs 137). Investigated before shipping: confirmed no pagination hides additional rows on any of the 5 pages; confirmed no further district pages exist beyond the 5 (the 4 new-district names above 404); re-verified all 17 ambiguous entries against each institution's own site. No missing-page or miscount cause was found. Notably, the SAME shortfall pattern holds across all three of JNTUA's own categories on these pages (Engineering 84/98, Pharmacy 17/33, Management/MCA 21/29) -- not just Engineering -- which is evidence against a category-specific miscount on this project's part, and supports the most likely explanation: the homepage's descriptive '98/33/29' figures are a legacy aggregate that hasn't been kept in sync with the live, apparently-pruned district tables (which show a Nov 2025 edit signal). Shipped with the actual count from the live official source rather than padded to match the homepage figure; this gap should be revisited if JNTUA republishes the district pages or an updated aggregate count.

Coverage note: JNTU-GV (Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Gurajada, Vizianagaram -- split from JNTUK in 2022) Engineering colleges: 2 constituent + 10 autonomous + 10 regular-affiliated (Private), sourced from JNTU-GV's own official academics pages (jntugv.edu.in/academics: constituent-colleges, autonomous-colleges, affliated-colleges). Pharmacy and Management/PG colleges on those pages were excluded -- Engineering only. Every college falls within JNTU-GV's six-district jurisdiction (Vizianagaram, Visakhapatnam, Srikakulam, Parvathipuram Manyam, Alluri Sitharama Raju, Anakapalli). The dedicated DAA portal (daa.jntugv.edu.in) did not resolve from this environment, so it was not used; its /constituent/ page had also been independently flagged as carrying a spam-injection page title, so the constituent colleges were taken from the clean jntugv.edu.in academics page (spam-checked -- no such signal) and cross-checked against the colleges' own official sites. branches_offered and per-college city are not yet sourced per-college.

Coverage note: JNTUH (Jawaharlal Nehru Technological University Hyderabad -- Telangana's main affiliating university) Engineering colleges: 8 constituent (university-run) + 137 regular-affiliated (Autonomous-Private or Private), sourced from JNTUH's own official portals. Constituent colleges from jntuh.ac.in's official constituent-colleges page (Hyderabad/Kukatpally flagship, Jagtial, Manthani, Sultanpur, Rajanna Sircilla, Wanaparthy, Mahabubabad, Palair) -- excludes the 2 non-Engineering constituent colleges also listed there (University College of Pharmaceutical Sciences & Management Sultanpur; University College of Management Hyderabad). Affiliated colleges from jntuhaac.in's 'Colleges Granted Affiliation Academic Year wise' page for ACADEMIC YEAR 2025-26 (the current AY at the time of sourcing, selected via ?academicYearId=17) -- NOT the /Public/oldcolleges or /Public/CollegeNameAndAddress pages, which are stale/cumulative or explicitly dated AY 2019-20. Filtered to Engineering only (excludes Pharmacy and Management/PG colleges on the same list); autonomous status taken from the '(Autonomous)' annotation the portal itself attaches to college names. Ten ambiguous names (Group of Institutions / Technical Campus / PG & Research Academy phrasing that didn't match simple Engineering keywords) were resolved individually against each college's own website or a web search rather than guessed -- see each record's notes for colleges where this applied; two were excluded as umbrella entries that would have double-counted an Engineering college already captured under its own separately-coded entry elsewhere in the same list (Sree Dattha Group of Institutions, St. Mary's Group of Institutions Hyderabad). Deduped within JNTUH by name+district (not by code, which the portal reuses, and not by name alone, since some genuinely different JNTUH colleges share a near-identical name in different districts). The resulting Engineering-only count (137 affiliated) matches JNTUH's own current-homepage-cited figure of 137 Engineering colleges, and the excluded Management/PG count (6) matches its cited 6 standalone MCA/MBA colleges -- both used as an external cross-check on the classification, not as a source in themselves. Districts and college names are exactly as given by the source portals (Telangana district reorganization names, e.g. Ranga Reddy, Medchal, Yadadri Bhuvanagiri). branches_offered and per-college city are not yet sourced per-college.

Coverage note: JNTUK Engineering colleges are now comprehensive: Constituent + Autonomous-Private + regular non-autonomous affiliated (Private) colleges, sourced from the official DAA portal (constituent.php, the autonomous list, and affiliatedColleges.php). Covers East Godavari, Guntur, Krishna, Prakasam and West Godavari districts. Still JNTUK-only -- JNTUH, JNTUA and JNTUGV are not started. Deliberately EXCLUDES Srikakulam/Visakhapatnam/Vizianagaram (SKL/VSP/VZM) colleges that still appear on the JNTUK portal but are stale post-2022 JNTU-GV territory (e.g. University College of Engineering Vizianagaram is now a JNTU-GV constituent per jntugvcev.edu.in); those need genuine JNTU-GV-specific sourcing, NOT this JNTUK portal, and must not be re-derived from here. branches_offered and per-college city are still not sourced per-college.
