Selected for Amazon ML Summer School 2026 from a Tier-3 college.
Got selected for Amazon ML Summer School 2026.
I just wanted to post this for every student who thinks being from a Tier-3 college automatically puts them at a disadvantage.
Your college may influence the opportunities you get initially, but it does not define your potential. Consistent learning, building real projects, understanding concepts deeply, and staying curious matter far more in the long run.
An entrance exam is just one milestone in life. It doesn't permanently define your credibility, your knowledge, or what you're capable of achieving as an engineer or researcher.
To everyone from Tier-3 colleges: don't underestimate yourself or stop aiming high. Compete with your work, not with your college name.
Keep learning, keep building, and let your projects speak for themselves.
