You have not specified your category, I will try to mention most of them and you can check your eligibility accordingly.

The examination paper has been tougher than the previous years. A 300 in UPTU means a rank ranging from 16001-25000. You can refer to this table and see which one fits your profile.

B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering
Category IET Lucknow Cut Off KNIT Sultanpur Cut Off
General 193-342 865-1079
OBC 357-495 1183-1438
SC 2749-4252 4968-7208
ST 9914-9914 -

There are chances that you might get in if you fit a certain category. Also, your rank might get CS in any other government college except for IET Lucknow but if you are from the SC category, there might be a chance. Getting admission for core subjects might be harder.

According to most of the students, all the branches of IET Lucknow are better than KNIT CS/IT. This is so because IET is situated in Lucknow, the capital of UP. 

  1. The placement in big cities like Lucknow is much better than in small cities like Sultanpur. 
  2. Students who want to pursue further education can easily get coaching for GATE which may not be easily available in Sultanpur. Every year, top rankers of GATE come from IET Lucknow. The GATE qualifying percentage of students of IET Lucknow is much better than any other institutes of AKTU.
  3. Students with good ranks get admission to IET Lucknow. The study environment is better than all the other institutes of AKTU.
  4. The hostel facility is available for all the students in IET Lucknow but KNIT offers hostel facilities to only a few.
  5. In IET Lucknow, you can also get an option for Internal Sliding for choosing the branch of your preference if any of the few seats are vacant in that branch. 
  6. Spot round is also conducted after the 4th round. These are held to fulfill all the vacant seats.

Placement statistics

Particulars IET Lucknow KNIT
Highest CTC offered INR 36 LPA INR 12 LPA
Average CTC offered INR 5 LPA INR 4.5 LPA
Top recruiters Amazon, Unacademy, D E Shaw & Co, Barclays, Code Nation, Go Speedy Go, Yamaha, Humming Wave, etc. Amazon, TCS, Global logic, Wipro, Samsung

The placement stats of students of IET Lucknow shows that talented and hard-working students of the college. If the student is passionate about CS and they do not have enough rank for IET Lucknow, then they can choose CS at another college, IET Lucknow is the top government college of AKTU.

I have friends from both IET Lucknow and KNIT Sultanpur and according to them, you will not get any of IET Lucknow or KNIT Sultanpur with this rank. Your OBC rank will not be of any help as selections in the spot round are done based on the general rank and there is no reservation. Also, at IET/KNIT, seats for core branches like CS/EC/ME, fill up first. 

If you are a fresher then I will suggest you take a year drop and appear for various entrance exams next year and, if you are not a fresher then, you can go to other colleges. You will not get the atmosphere like IET Lucknow anywhere else, and hence, taking a year drop will be the best in any case. The environment is very competitive at IET Lucknow. Even KNIT Sultanpur lags in this case. The location of IET Lucknow is perfect for coaching for exams like CAT, GATE, IES, IAS, etc.

Visit the official websites, to get the detailed information regarding the cutoff required at these institutes.

IET Lucknow has been chosen by a lot of students for its great campus placement for ECE, IT, CSE, etc. In terms of the faculty of IET Lucknow, it is admirable. Apart from being situated in the capital of UP, the institute also is known to have facilities dedicated to sports, robotics, cultural enhancement of the activities, and looking for the talent that the students have.

  • IET Lucknow also has a good infrastructure and has an enviable position among the institutes that are affiliated with AKTU in UP.
  • The location of IET Lucknow is also favorable.
  • IET Lucknow also provides better exposure to the students than KNIT Sultanpur.
  • IET Lucknow offers coaching for IES and GATE exams.
  • It also provides coaching for SSC exams as well as banking exams.
  • The hostels are in good condition and there is also an internet connection for the convenience of the students.
  • Compared to KNIT, the placement in IET Lucknow is far better.
Categories IET Lucknow KNIT Sultanpur
Course Fee 3.44 lakhs 3.37 lakhs
Highest CTC 20-23 LPA 20 LPA
Average CTC 15-18 LPA 7-8 LPA
Recruiting Companies Wipro, Cognizant, TCS, IBM, etc. Qualcomm, Adobe, ZS Associates, HCL, etc.

Not many popular companies attend the placement program of KNIT Sultanpur. There is also no scope for placement for students of EE, ME, and CE. To make that possible, you will have to prepare for GATE exams. So it is suggested that among the two you go for IET Lucknow.

Considering your UPSEE rank in the girl category, I think you should get easily in KNIT Sultanpur. Mostly even a seat in IET Lucknow is possible.

The girls above your rank must be trying multiple other entrance exams as well and there is a maximum possibility that half of them will go to IITs or NITs. Your rank is very good and girls above you are more capable on average.

UPSEE Cutoff Round (General Category) –

Courses KNIT Sultanpur IET Lucknow
B. Tech in Electronics Engineering 1862 to 2440 508 to 784
B. Tech in Electrical Engineering 2258 to 2950 835 to 1132

Don't worry I think you should get one among the mentioned seats. Good luck!

The placement scenario for MCA is not considered as good as it is for B.Tech students in KNIT Sultanpur. The thing that matters the most is your consistency in working during MCA.

My brother has recently graduated from IET and based on his experience, I can suggest you a few points:

  • In IET Lucknow, MCA student sits with B.Tech students for the placements. It becomes important to see how better you are when compared to the skills of B.Tech students.
  • As compared to the other two, IET Lucknow is the best as it had more exposure because of its city. The city gives you better options for training.
  • It is near AKTU, so if there are any new updates, you get the information early. Of all the colleges affiliated with AKTU, IET is ranked No. 1. It is an autonomous college as well.

It is important to acknowledge that MCA placements are in no comparison with that of B.Tech but still it gives better exposure as compared to any Government College. BIET Jhansi does not offer MCA, so there’s no comparison with it.

My brother is an alumnus of IET Lucknow and was able to shed some light on the differences between IET Lucknow and KNIT. 

  • IET Lucknow has a higher brand value than KNIT Sultanpur. 
  • IET Lucknow provides a better environment and exposure because it is located in the heart of the city and is well-connected to the rest of the city. 
  • In comparison to KNIT, you can find students with good grades at IET Lucknow. In comparison to KNIT, placements at IET Lucknow are significantly better. According to the recent placement statistics the median CTC offered at IET is around 4.5 LPA. While the average CTC offered at KNIT is 4 LPA.
  • In terms of academics and infrastructure also, IET is significantly superior. 

If you are in KNIT, you would have to travel to Lucknow or Allahabad for any placement drives or tests, as most firms or companies will not travel to the college in a rural area for placement drives.

IET Lucknow, KNIT Sultanpur, and MMM Gorakhpur are the engineering institutes in Uttar Pradesh. The admission of MMM is on MET/ JEE Mains basis, whereas the other two are on the cut-off of UPSEE. According to some of the reviews online, I would suggest you go for IET Lucknow.

  • IET Lucknow is the best choice, followed by MMM Gorakhpur. It provides excellent exposure to the students. 
  • There are various activities taking place on campus apart from academics.
  • The institute is the top-ranked college of UPTU.
  • IET and MMM have a long way to go. Therefore, both the institutes do not have an alumni network.
  • The top recruiters of IET Lucknow are TCS, Amazon, Code Nation, HCL, Yamaha, Global Logic, New Gen, and more.
  • It provides basic facilities like Wi-Fi, canteen, hostels, library, laboratories, sports and others. IET is well-equipped.

The fee and placement details are below.

Criteria IET Lucknow MMM Gorakhpur KNIT Sultanpur
Fee INR 3.44 Lakhs INR 3.45 Lakhs INR 2.2 Lakhs
Average Package INR 14 LPA INR 13 LPA INR 6 LPA
Highest Package INR 25 LPA INR 18 LPA INR 12 LPA

Overall, IET and MMM are the best institutes. The choice between the two depends upon your own interest and the return on investment. KNIT Sultanpur is a namesake Government college. It is not good compared to the others.

There are primarily three major factors that determine whether a college is good or bad. These include - facilities, placements, and faculty. Let me provide you a brief insight about it, which might help you understand it a bit better.

Facility:Since JSS is a private college, the infrastructure and the facilities are much better than other institutes in the city.

Faculty: All three institutes, BIET, KNIT, and JSS, is affiliated with AKTU and the faculty belong to the same level of expertise.

Placements:JSS provides good industry exposure. The location of JSS is also pretty convenient as it enables access to places near and far.

Categories BIET Jhansi KNIT Sultanpur JSS Noida
Course Fee 2.44 lakhs 3.37 lakhs 2.2 lakhs
Highest CTC 10-12 LPA 14 LPA 18-20 LPA
Average CTC 5-6 LPA 3.5 LPA 7 LPA
Recruiting Companies Amazon, Oracle, etc. HP, TCS, etc. IBM, Infosys, etc.

It is suggested that you go for JSS, as it has better placement records than BIET or KNIT. But ultimately it is your choice and how you want your career to be shaped.

IT at IIIT Una is better than CS at KNIT Sultanpur. The reasons for the same are given below.

  • Infrastructure - IIIT Una does not have its own campus yet. Currently, it is functioning from NIT Hamirpur campus. Thus IIIT Una students enjoy the same great facilities and the lush green campus as NIT Hamirpur students. KNIT Sultanpur has average to bad infrastructure.
  • Locality - Again the temporary campus at NIT Hamirpur is much better than Sultanpur.
  • Education - In this regard, both may be equal but owing to better facilities being provided by NIT Hamirpur, IIIT Una will be considered better. The fee is almost the same in both the colleges.

It is advisable to talk to some of the current as well as recent alumni of both the institutes to know the exact state of the colleges and their placement records. IIIT Una is still very new and evolving. KNIT is also a good option but looking at other things and the future growth potential IIIT Una should be preferred.
