This is genuinely risky and can affect your entire career. Without CoA recognition, you generally can't register as a licensed architect after graduating. Your degree may not be valid for professional practice anywhere in India. So always verify CoA approval status before locking in any college.

Some states also run their own separate entrance exams for local colleges. So depending on your target college, you might need to prepare for more than one exam.
