Colleges in Vellore

First of all, let me make it clear to my fellow students that VIT, Pune is indeed Vishwakarma Institute of Technology and not Vellore Institute of Technology. Now coming to the question, both of these colleges are pretty good in terms of the quality of education they provide. Pune Institute of Computer Technology (PICT) was specially founded for imparting education in computer science and IT. It provides only three courses in B.Tech which are computer engineering, electronics and telecommunication and information technology while VIT provides degrees in almost all conventional branches. Talking about academics, PICT has an edge when it comes to CSE and IT. I have some friends pursuing IT there who confirmed upon this. The quality of education is pretty good. VIT also is a well-reputed college and has a high demand for CSE and IT. Apart from that, VIT is known for its extra curricular activities and campus life as such. I would suggest going through the syllabus of both the colleges and taking into consideration factors like location, campus, and future goals before making a decision. Best of luck!

Hello Sethu!
VITEEE - VIT engineering entrance examination is a national level examination conducted by the VIT University for admission Into undergraduate programs at its campuses at Vellore, Chennai, Bhopal and Amaravathi.
The Qualifying marks are :
1)General Category- Candidates should have scored an aggregate of 60% in Maths, Physics and Chemistry in 10+2
2)SC, ST, J&K, North Eastern states- Candidates should have scored an average 50% marks in Physics, Maths and Chemistry in 10+2 or its equivalent exam
*The exam will be held online only.
Though the total marks is 125, you will get admission based on your ranks only.
It also depends on the number of candidates and their rankings so that your admission is based on the relative scores only.
To get admission, your rank should be at least below 10000 so that you may get a seat at the main campus or a course of your choice.
There is a way of admission at VIT University which is called categories. The top tankers could only get category 1 which is the normal fee structure.
As the ranks go higher, the students get placed in higher categories where the fee structure increases by 1 lakh for every category.
So, it is advisable to get a rank below 10000 or a score like 100 and above.
All the best!

I would go for VIT any day just because the college has a better reputation ranking 6th on the list of the best private, while SRM ranks 11th on the same list.
Life at VIT is a little more hectic and restricting than life at SRM, this is because of the fact that you will have to solve daily assignments and your classes runs from 8:00 to 7:00 if you belong to CSE in the first year, this is the case at VIT.
While at SRM, you have classes till 5:00 in the first year, and there are no such assignments. Also, you get to go out as many times as you want to, unlike VIT.
So in clear sense, you get to have much more freedom at SRM.
Placements:
More core companies visit VIT in comparison to SRM and so the placements at VIT are certainly a lot better.
Fees:
You have to pay a lot more at SRM if you happen to secure a rank more than SRMJEEE than you get to pay at VIT. Also, the hostel facility is also more expensive at SRM than in comparison to VIT.
With this, I hope you make the right choice.
Cheers!

Hi,
99% of the companies (core or IT) offer at least 3.25 lakhs to ECE undergrads. Core companies generally offer somewhere in the vicinity of 5.6 lakhs, some might even offer 10 lakhs+. Companies like Cadence, Cisco, McKinsey, Schlumberger, KLM Tencor, Future first, which offer salary of 10 lakhs+ (have a selection process with a difficulty level that matches their pay package). So, you need to be really smart and really lucky to get through. Then there are few less paying firms like HP, Deloitte, Sapient, GM, GE and list goes on.
All these pay above 5 lpa but less than 8lpa.
And then there's mass recruitment, Accenture/ Wipro/ Infy etc. These also pay above 3 lpa but less than 4 lpa.

Please mention your rank in VITEEE with marks. I think it's too late for deciding to join VIT, Vellore or Chennai campus because in both the campus admission has been closed for all the branches but for your information I can say that if your rank is good like under 6000 then there will be many options for you in terms of branches including you can get CSE branch also with some specialisation here. Also whatever fee structure you have seen in brochure is just for category 1, not other categories if your rank is low then also you can get CSE branch but fee structure will change for you means fee structure of category in which you are.
You should go for counseling process also which is the first step towards admission. If you have done counseling then you can contact VIT office. You can get VIT contact number on its website. For more information please mention your rank in VITEEE because there is very wide spectrum which will surely depend on your rank.
Try to be in VIT, Vellore if possible otherwise Chennai is also good.
