VIT Vellore Answered Questions

I would suggest the integrated 5 year degree in VIT because firstly it will save you the trouble of again preparing for GATE exam for doing an B.Tech degree in case you feel interested in your field of study.
Secondly, by doing the integrated degree, you are saving one year time which could utilized more productively.
Thirdly, in case you feel of doing a Masters after finishing your Bachelors, you might get the glamorous idea of doing an MS from abroad which is usually not sponsored unless you join an integrated MS plus Ph.D program. Basically getting a scholarship for an MS degree abroad is really difficult and is pretty expensive (high dollar value against rupees). You can always look for a student loan to pay for the MS degree but why take all this pain when you can get the Masters degree easily by paying relatively cheaper tuition fee in India.

When it comes between VIT and SRM, I would opt for VIT University only.
VIT:
Good placements, better education and exposure. Campuses like Vellore and Chennai are better for all the courses.
Fee structure is better, but it increases with your rank. For the ranks 25000 and above, the fees will be INR 6-8 lakhs per annum or more.
SRM:
The main campus of SRM University is widely preferred. It offers better education and placements. The infrastructure is also good.
The fees structure is better, but in management quota it will be more.
Prefer VIT University even if you get SRM University. But don't choose Bhopal and Amaravati campuses, as we have no idea about them. In SRM, choose only the main campus.
