Anna University comprises of dedicated schools which offer B.Arch courses to its students. It has world class laboratories, spacious auditoriums, well-equipped library and so on. Admission to its B.Arch course takes place through the NATA entrance test, and securing a seat in the institute is no mean task. Hostels have all basic amenities, and there is also a fully functional sports complex available to its students. Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE) on the other hand is an engineering college which offers B.Arch as a subsidiary course. Placements are good and facilities are top notch, however more attention is given to engineering which reflects in the faculty of the college.
In my opinion, securing admission in Anna university is an achievement by itself and getting an architecture degree from this university prepares its students to take on the world. I would prefer a B.Arch degree form Anna University over Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE).

College of engineering-Trivandrum is one of the top colleges in Kerala having good placements, infrastructure and faculty. Top companies which visit this college offer high pay packets to the students. Most of the students are placed with high pay packages all over the world.
This college has better infrastructure than other colleges in Kerala. Moreover, yearly fees is on the lower side which helps students from lower economic backgrounds pursue a course from this college. On the other hand, Rizvi College of Architecture has a high fee structure which limits admission to students with considerably higher family income.
College of Engineering-Trivandrum organises many cultural fests, functions to keep its students engaged and does not allow monotony to build over its students. So, in my opinion College of Engineering-Trivandrum is a better college as compared with Rizvi College of Architecture.

D Y Patil School of Architecture is one that needs no introduction. It is one of the best architecture colleges in Pune and across the country. Although its fee structure is slightly on the higher side, it is worth every penny. It has world class facilities, and infrastructure unmatched across India. This college has kept up with the times and the syllabus taught to its students keeps evolving with changing times. Although there are no placements on campus, students can send their portfolio to companies and if the firm likes their work, they get called for the interview process. Although S. B. Patil College of Architecture and Design has a good faculty they have not molded their curriculum to keep up with the changing times, which is necessary for success in the industry. So, in my opinion D Y Patil School of Architecture will be a better bet for architecture aspirants seeking admission in architecture school.

BMS College of Engineering is an autonomous engineering college in Basavangudi, Bangalore. BMS College of Engineering established the Department of Architecture in the year 1980.
The Department of Architecture of BMS offers programs in B.Arch, M.Arch (Habitat Design) and doctoral programme under VTU, Belgaum.
The annual intake for B.Arch is 120. It has good infrastructure and well-experienced faculty members.
MIT ADT (Arts, Design and Technology) is located in Pune. It offers a B.Arch programme of 5-year duration which is approved by the COA (Council of architecture). This is also a good choice for architecture when compared to most of the colleges for architecture in India. This college offers good education with great infrastructure and faculty members.
Both of these offer good education and opportunities to the students of architecture.
But when comparing both of these, I prefer BMS College of Engineering. They are almost equal to each other, but considering all aspects and including student reviews, my choice is BMS College of Engineering.

B.Arch is a course for students who want to make their career in the architecture field. In B.Arch, students have to design, create as main part of this course is drawing so which is not possible for every student, so B.Arch is quite tough as compared B.Tech.
