The Institution attracts students from within Bengaluru, from within the state, across India, and some international students for each of our courses. We have students from abroad from all walks of life. 

The International Students’ Service was established in 2014 in collaboration with the Indian Council of Cultural Relations to attract more foreign students to the Institution and provide them with a base for information and support. The Institution's Nodal Officer for the International Students’ Service (ISS) is the contact point for student support for foreign students. The officer in charge meets the foreign students at the beginning of the academic year to get to know them and understand their needs. Thereafter, the officer helps them to orient themselves to the new environment and also helps them find safe and suitable accommodation in the city if support is needed. Conducting international students‘ events, working closely with ICCR, and Foreign Regional Registration Office (FRRO), and contacting the local police personnel are some of the other support services the Nodal Officer provides to this group of students. Special guidance and support are given to foreign students during their visa renewal. The Nodal Officer conducts meetings every month with the students, and a festival is conducted once a year to nurture their culture. Since 2012, bridge courses focused on speaking and writing in English have been periodically offered to students from Afghanistan.  An International Students' Day has been organised in the Institution over the last few years.
