There is an entrance exam for admission to VIT called VITEEE and along with it you must have a minimum aggregate of 65% in your respective board in your class 12. I found this application form on the web while searching for engineering entrance exams and the fee for the application was 1350 in our time and was held in April. Yes, I would entertain any scholarships for my coming year's admission fees.
Read Full ReviewThere was an entrance exam VITEEE. The questions were of easy to moderate level. The application form can be found on their official site. All 12th passes are eligible for this examination. The admission has been easy.
Read Full ReviewThere is an entrance exam. For those who took integrated courses direct admission was based on previous qualifications at that time. Based on ranking there are reservations. There is no caste reservation type that's the good thing.
Read Full ReviewThe admission process was one of the easiest yet most confusing ones I've done. It had multiple steps before the final admission, and multiple levels of orientation based on your rank. eligibility was that we had to have passed 12th grade from any board. I was writing it under general class and hence dont know many details about reservation but im aware it exists. The admission process I think is suitable for the college's reputation and wouldn't want any changes.
Read Full ReviewI wrote my VITEEE exam on 20th June 2021, the syllabus was listed as important topics highlighted in Maths,Physics, Chemistry and a mock test was conducted before. They gave categories according to the rank list that will be released, that is, higher your rank more the scholarship fees. During my admission time the fees were structured at 1L 2L 3L 4L (L- Lakhs) for rank groups, i secured a rank of 53,402 and got into B.Tech Computer Science and Engineering Core, due to the extreme demand I was only able to go for category 3. There were several other branches which I got at 2L category but still I went for CSE Core. There is a special scholarship admission process for underpriveleged people called the STARS program as well, and the normal admission process was only via VITEEE the entrance exam. The form details, everything will be available all over google, etc but main source is vit.ac.in where you can find recent news,updates,etc regularly.
Read Full ReviewEligibility was 60% or above in all subjects of the CBSE 12 board exam. The application form, fees, and dates can be found on the official VIT website. The online admission process went smoothly in my case.

Companies such as DE Shaw, Microsoft, HP, Infosys, PayPal, etc. takes part in VIT Chennai placements.
If you are considering between BIT Mesra and VIT, here are some reasons why BIT Mesra is the better option:
BIT Mesra is a better option than VIT for pursuing an engineering degree. With a higher selection ratio in JEE Advanced, good infrastructure, excellent placement records, and experienced faculty, BIT Mesra provides a better overall learning experience.
IET Lucknow is better. Being a Govt. institute it charges a lower course fee. If you are planning on preparing for competitive examinations like CAT, GATE, GRE, etc. IET will be the right choice. The college schedule is flexible and leaves a lot of room for exploring other interests. Lucknow has good coaching institutes for competitive examinations. At IET, you will meet seniors who have qualified GATE, CAT, GRE, etc. They will be able to guide you regarding preparations.
VIT is better as it has more than 200 companies coming for CSE students. If the student wants to go into a college with better placements or better exposure.

It is not possible to decide your inclination just after completing 12th as there is plenty of knowledge awaiting. When you take a branch that you probably didn’t realize in school also the placements in PEC are nice now it is on par with VIT. Overall, PEC is the potential choice.
According to a senior of mine who has graduated from NIT Raipur, the institute is better than most top colleges in Bangalore including VIT institutes.
Despite having a soft spot for NIT Raipur, she does not discourage candidates from trying their luck at any other university, including VITs. She, however, suggests that they should get acquainted for measuring progress after completion of the undergraduate degree.
Campus:
Course:
Placements:
In the case of NIT Raipur, almost every candidate will get at least one job, in recent years many also bagged two jobs. The ones who have, get a package of 4-8 LPA for the first job, and a package of as much as 16-17 LPA for the second job. Candidates who do not get a second job also land a job with a package of 4-8 LPA.
Overall, it is safe to say that CSE from NIT Raipur will be a good option.
In terms of academics, Amrita University matches the IIT syllabus and course structure. The infrastructure and laboratories are in good condition. The college works closely with businesses and other educational institutions. Many academic activities are being carried out to ensure effective information exchange.
College life is the most interesting part. Amrita University's Coimbatore campus is one of the cleanest in India and spans 500 acres. Amrita is a very diverse campus and a great place to make new friends. There is no such constraint. Cell phones are not permitted in the classroom. However, after leaving the classroom, you can talk to your loved ones. A minimum attendance requirement of 80% must be met, or you must present sufficient justification for your absence.
Amrita provides free wifi that is typically 0.5Mbps fast. Aside from YouTube, Facebook, and a few other sites, most academic content is available. Everything else is restricted. Only nutritious vegetarian food is served. The menu is adequate for a South Indian restaurant. If you are a traveler, you will have enough vacation time in Amrita to visit all of India in two years. The resident warden must grant permission for the outing. Every time a girl needs an outing pass, she must submit a fax from her parents. You can earn millions if you plan on participating in and winning every cultural event that is held there. It is an excellent world-class platform for showcasing and honing your skills.
This academic year, Atlassian is the employer with the highest salary on offer to Amrita students, with a staggering 52 lakhs offered annually. Microsoft offered 43 lakhs per year in salary, while Cisco hired 27 students at a CTC of 29.18 lakhs per year.
According to the most recent report, the highest and average compensation packages offered during the 2022 placement drive were INR 19.17 LPA and INR 6.72 LPA, respectively. Furthermore, in 2022, 93 recruiters participated in the placement process, placing 261 students in new-age job profiles. Accenture, Adobe, Infosys, EY, KPMG, and others were among Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham's top recruiters in 2022.
If you compare NIT Raipur and VIT Chennai, then NIT Raipur is much better than VIT. In the given table you will get the basic information of NIT Raipur and VIT Chennai.
Here are few reasons why NIT Raipur is a better option.
Therefore, if you are choosing between NIT Raipur and VIT Chennai, then choose the former. The placement of NIT Raipur is also good. Branches like Electronics and Telecommunications, CSE, Electrical, Mechanical have good placement records. However, Metallurgy, CE, Mining branch placement is not very promising. So make your decision based on these things.
VIT CSE is better in terms of placements, industry exposure, opportunities, and many other things as compared to NIT Puducherry Electrical. According to the recent placement highlights of VIT, the average CTC offered was 6 LPA and the highest CTC offered was 75 LPA.
On the other hand, NIT Puducherry is a Govt. college. It changes less course fee. For a B.E degree, NIT Puducherry charges around 2.17 lakhs, while a B.Tech from VIT will cost around 8 lakhs. The peer group at the institute is great. You will also have the NIT tag with your degree. That is certainly a perk of pursuing a degree at NIT Puducherry.
However, you should choose the institute based on your interest. If you like coding go for VIT CSE, or if you like basic sciences more than NIT Puducherry Electrical Engineering will be a better option for you.
One of my cousins was in the same situation. He had very few options, mainly VIT, Tezpur University, and few NITs. He did some research and found that Tezpur University is considered the best central government institute. After talking to some students of the institute he also learned that the institute is great although the placement rate is not that good. It is a decent option if you want to pursue research.
His focus was placements. So, he chose VIT, Chennai and now he is a proud alumnus of the institute.
Here is a brief comparison of Tezpur University and VIT.
| Parameters | Tezpur University | VIT |
| Course fee | 2.11 lakhs | 7.83 lakhs |
| Average CTC | 3.5 LPA | 6.39 LPA |
| Highest CTC | 14 LPA | 44 LPA |
| Major recruiters | HDFC, ICICI, Axis Bank | HP, Infosys, Microsoft |
So, choose an institute based on what you want out of your degree.
A few of my friends graduated from VIT Chennai and KIIT and here are some insight from their experience which may be of help.
KIIT will be a better choice just because it's the main campus, the placements are almost at par and you get more freedom to enjoy college life.
But VIT does have an edge over many things, and even if you go to VIT Chennai, the placement opportunities will be the same.
Here are the recent placement statistics for the institutes.
