One of my close friends attended NIET and here is his take on the institute.

• The main recruiter on campus is TCS. You will be able to apply for the company no matter which branch you belong to. Apart from TCS, MNCs that visit the campus are UHG, Capgemini, etc. for CS/IT students. There will also be a few other companies based on your branch.
• Maximum recruiting companies hire students in sales, marketing, business analyst job roles.
• There are no placements for the Civil branch. The faculties are not that experienced either.
• NIET advertises about their good placement records, but if you go through the placement list you will find that most of the placements at the institute are in sales profile.
• The institute claims that the Indian Army and Indian Navy visit the placement drive every year. But in his 4-year duration of the course, my friend didn’t witness anyone getting recruited by them.
• The infrastructure of the college is also not that good. WiFi is not that useful, you have to use VPN to open common sites like youtube.
• There is no fest, and little to no exposure.

According to my friends, it will be better if you don’t consider NIET as an option, rather go for other alternatives if you have them.

For NIET there are a total of 2 admission procedures which are as follows.

On-campus: 

Visit the campus with your academic transcripts, i.e mark sheets of 1oth, 12th, etc. Let the officials know that you are interested in taking admission for CSE. You may have to take a test to do so. These tests are usually quite easy. Also, just a tip I got from my friends at the institute that good communication skills in English go a long way there. 

College Counseling: 

Clear a competitive examination, like AIEEE, UPTU with good rank and choose the institute for counseling. You can also select the college based on your Mains score. 

Here is the required UPSEE cutoff for CSE in recent years.

Hope this was of some help.

My friend from school used to be a student of NIET and he has said there are two cases of life in NIET: the hostler and day scholars.

• For the hostelers, before starting life at NIET, it should be known that there are two campuses, the main campus which is for the second, third, and fourth-year students, and the campus for the students of the first year.
• If you are a hosteler, then life as a student will be nothing short of a mess. There are two hostels: the flat hostel which accommodates 1-2 students and the Om Hostel which has accommodation for 3-4 students.
• The mess in the hostel gives food which leaves a lot to be desired. Initially, the food provided is good but as time goes, the quality of the food deteriorates. And the quality does not improve, unfortunately.
• Day scholars have it easy in the institute but if the students live far off then the to and fro journey can get burdensome.

However, looking on the bright side, the faculty is supportive provided you are willing to put in the effort. The institute has a good library and despite the fact that the classes not having ACs, the labs do.

Here are some of the information from an ex-student of NIET and a good friend of mine about the girl’s hostel.

• The wifi facility is available, however, most of the sites are blocked and students use VPN to use them.
• The food served initially is good but over time, the quality degrades. The mess committee guarantees quality and change of menus in starting year but you won’t get to see any change.
• Lift is also available but it never works. It is always under maintenance. The student of the first year gets 4th floor and they have to struggle a lot due to this.
• The security management of the hostel is quite good.
• The rooms in the girls’ hostel are of two types- three and four-seater. The first-year students are placed on the 4th floor in four-seater rooms and rest in 1st. 2nd, and 3rd in three-seater.
• There is no Gym facility for girls in the hostel. There is one on the second campus, you will have to go by NIET Bus.
• You are not allowed to be in your room during college hours. As there won’t be any electricity.
• The students are allowed to stay out till 7 pm. And for a night out, you will have to take permission from the chief warden who will first ask from parents and then allow.

Overall the hostel experience will be average. You can opt for the college hostel in first year to make some friends, and move out later in 2nd year.

I have some friends who went to NIET. And based on the conversion I had with them, I will say placement at the institute is quite good.

Numerous companies visit and recruit at NIET. If you're talented, you can get a good placement. NIET provides opportunities for its students to interact with companies and learn about job openings.

Here are the highlights of placement for 2020.

There are placement preparation classes held on campus. These classes are also quite affordable. Overall, you will have enough good placement opportunities at the institute.
