There are 3 ways through which you can enter Vasavi College of Engineering (VCE). These are EAMCET, JEE Mains, or NRI / NRI Sponsored.

• If you opt to apply through EAMCET, you will need an excellent EAMCET score in order to be admitted to VCE. 
• If you are non-local, you are only eligible to fill 15% of the total seats under the convenor category. 85% seats are reserved for locals. 
• CSE, IT, and ECE disciplines may require a triple-digit rank. 
• As one of my friends scored 55, 153 AIR in Mains 18 and applied under B-CAT, he was offered Mechanical and he accepted it.
• The best thing about B-CAT admissions is that there are no reservations and the cost structure is the same as for EAMCET applicants, which is now 1.6 LPA. 
• In the month of June, the college issues notification for B-CAT applicants, which you'll check on the official website. 
• You must pay the application cost, and register as an applicant, providing all of your information (JEE Rank, XII Marks, etc.). 
• The fourth option is to apply through the NRI category, which follows the same method as the Mains application.
• However, you would be admitted based on a merit list of XII marks obtained. It is extremely difficult to get a seat in the CSE branch.
• Last year's NRI cutoff for CSE was around 97% and there are similar trends for ECE and IT as well. 
• Mechanical and Civil have comparatively low cutoffs around 75 percent.

So, a Maharashtrian candidate is eligible to enroll at Vasavi College of Engineering if you go through any of the ways mentioned above.
