The process to get into this college or any other affiliated college under VTU is either Comedk or Kcet. If you are a student from outside of Karnataka you have to get through Comedk or management seat quota. The exam and applications all are done by Comedk. But this process is being checked and may be changed in near future as a unified exam for all the students. The cut-off for Computer science and technology was around 6000 rank in 2021.

My CET ranking was 7250 and got a seat in SIT college through CET ranking only in the First round itself. There were 3 rounds while we opted for our desired colleges according to our ranking and category or caste if we applied we will be allotted to the applicable college and if we don't like the allotted college or wanted to try other colleges we can go for the next rounds. I was satisfied with the first round itself as I got a government seat at SIT college Tumkur in the civil engineering department. The government fee was around 50000 and the college administration fee was around 300000 total of 80000 was costed at the time of my study hostel fee was extra for hostel students. There was a reservation according to caste wise I was from the general category soo I didn't get any reservations and scholarship facilities from the government are available for SC and ST category students. The admission process was smooth in our college and it was online through the college website.

Siddaganga Institute of Technology - [SIT]: 3 answered questions

Ques
Which will be better SIT Tumkur ISE or IIIT Nagpur ECE?

● Top Answer By Ojas Lohia on 19 Jul 21

Ans
SIT Tumkur is a decent choice. Both the ISC and CS branch faculties are very well established as compared to the other faculties in the college. The syllabus is also very well updated and is set according to industry standards. A number of different companies hire students from a number of different branches with decent packages of INR 3 to 7 LPA. Many different companies like TCS, Accenture, Siemens, Bosch, Byjus, etc. visit the college annually. Lastly, if you want a fair comparison, my advice to you would be to visit both colleges and get in touch with the departments, their students and seniors. You are basically going to invest 4 years of your life here.

Ques
Which engineering college/university is better, Lovely Professional University or Siddaganga Institute of Technology?

● Top Answer By Abhishek Gupta on 14 Aug 20

Ans
Although it can be extremely difficult when it comes to choosing the perfect engineering college from so many options these points can really help you to make a precise decision for your future. Placement- Top companies like Amazon, CTS, IBM, HP, Tech Data, Samsung, Oracle, Microsoft provide the LPU students with various internship and job opportunities. The highest placement package is around 42 lakh per annum and the average range is 15 lakh per annum. The highest salary package remains to be around 14.2 LPA for Siddaganga students and companies like Cisco, Health-Care, State Street, Juniper Network, Varsa Network and TCS are some of the top recruiters who offer both internship and job opportunities to the students. Ranking- LPU ranked 99th amongst the top 100 institutions by NIRF 3rd amongst the top Private universities and 87th among the top engineering institutions by NIRF. Siddaganga Institute of Technology, on the other hand has ranked 91st amongst the top engineering colleges by NIRF. Also, it has ranked 51st amongst the top engineering colleges by India Today. Eligibility and Fees Structure LPU Course name Eligibility Course fee B.TECH 10 +2 with min 60%+ LPUNEST 1.37 lakhs per year MBA Graduation with min 55% 2.32 lakhs per year BBA 10+2 1.09 lakhs per year BPT 10+2 97,067 per year M.TECH B.TECH with 60% 1.09 Lakhs per year Siddaganga Institute of Technology Course name Eligibility Course fee B.Tech 10+3 with 45%+DCET 76418 per year M.Tech Graduation with GATE 92975 per year B.E 10+2 with min 45%+KCET 77673 per year MBA Graduation with 55% 12000 per year Scholarships- LPU seems to provide a lot of scholarships to students who perform well in various categories. Some of these scholarships are LPUNEST, on the basis of national tests, performance in extracurricular activities and so on. In Siddaganga, a special scholarship is arranged by an institution alumni K.Shyam based on the CGPA and extracurricular performances of the students inside the campus. Hostel facilities- LPU has separate hostels for boys and girls with excellent accommodation. They provide standard rooms with essentials like Iron bed, table, Almirah, AC geyser and so on. Hostel fee depends on the type of accommodation. For 1 seater apartment the fee is around 168000 per year and for 2 seater apartment it is 119000 per year. Siddaganga Institute also provides comfortable accommodation for girls. They provide good food for 7 days with one special item once a week. The hostel fee here is relatively less unlike most of the other private universities. The hostel fee here is around 55000-65000 per year and it seems to be changing every year.

Ques
Which college should I choose for CSE among KLE Technological University, RNSIT, and SIT (Tumkur)?

● Top Answer By Falguni Rahaman on 29 Jul 21

Ans
Among the given options, SIT Tumkur is definitely a better option. It offers better placement and exposure as compared to RNSIT and KLE. KLE isn't ideal when it comes to its location, therefore, I would advise you to not choose it. Since it is located far away from the main city within Bangalore, it gets pretty inconvenient for the companies to show up for placements. This gravely affects the placement scenario. You would as well be devoid of opportunities like off-campus placements, startups, or even as mentioned, transportation. If you are a North Indian, never choose a college that is located at a far-away destination from Bangalore because of how inconvenient things would get because of the transportation factor. However, if we talk about SIT Tumkur, the location of that institute is ideal since Bangalore is not that far from it. It is around 80 km away, which boosts the placement stats along with the ranking of that particular institute. RNSIT is in Bangalore but it is not as good as SIT Tumkur.
