All the 3 NITs namely NIT Trichy, Surathkal, and Warangal are considered to be among the top NITs and are highly regarded engineering colleges. Their rankings are also quite similar but in my opinion, the preference order should be
NIT Warangal>NIT Surathkal>NIT Trichy
The reason Trichy should be your last option is because it does not permit students to go for Internship which in turn results in no PPOs. Many students get PPOs and thus are free from the stress of sitting for placements. Also, internships give you a better experience of the real world. Here is a brief overview of these 3 colleges

The placement scenario of these NITs is somewhat the same so that should not be your primary concern. Focus on personal preferences like proximity to home, hostel fcilties, etc
Frankly speaking, the hostel facility at NIT Warangal is very poor. The students are forced to stay in congested rooms and unhygienic bathrooms. They do not provide basic amenities to the students. The first-year students need to stay at the Sarojini hostel, which has unhygienic and pathetic living conditions. In the second year, JEE girls get Priyadarshini Hall and DASA Girls get New Ladies Hostel; the living conditions in these hostels are not so different from the Sarojini Hostel
It is better not to carry many things to the hostel; you can easily buy anything from the nearby shops. Try to bring more food items, and note that electrical appliances like hair dryers, heaters, kettles, etc. are not allowed in the hostel
Frankly speaking, not all IT companies are open to all branches for placements. Most startups, management, and consulting companies give opportunities to students from all branches. High recruiters like Microsoft mostly prefer students from only the CSC, ECE, and EEE branches. Don’t lose hope; if you can maintain good grades over your semesters, then you will at least get placed in companies like NITW.
If you are highly passionate about the IT field, then prepare well and learn programming. Your hard work will pay off for sure.
Let’s do a comprehensive comparison of IIT Hyderabad, IIIT Hyderabad, and NIT Warangal (as my knowledge is limited to these 3 only)
IIT Hyderabad
NIT Warangal
IIIT Hyderabad: It’s considered a good option for computer science students.
BITS Hyderabad: It is also a decent institute with students enjoying good opportunities and freedom.
CBIT: It is one of the best private institutes in AP and Telangana. However, it cannot be compared to NIT Warangal or others, as the exposure and opportunities of NIT are way better.
In my opinion, the ultimate preference order should be,
IIT Hyderabad> IIIT H>=BITs H>= NIT W>CBIT
NIT Warangal offers decent placement support to its students. The recent placement statistics are given below in tabular form

You can quickly get on track with a consistent study routine. You need to invest one hour on weekdays and 2 to 3 hours on weekends in your studies. Let us go through the subject-wise cycle in detail.
Physics
Chemistry
You can also practice the previous year's question papers. So keep these points in mind and enjoy college life.
You should note the points given below before starting your college life
The selection of the institute can be done based on your interest in the core subject. ECE and CSE are entirely different, and you will be able to crack good scores only if you have an interest in the subject
If you are into ECE, NIT Warangal is the best institute, as they provide good academic support and quality education. All the NITs have the same placement package in the CSE department. So, you will have ample opportunities at NIT Nagpur, which is one of the leading NITs in India.
Most of the students opt for engineering to satisfy society and their families. And some of them select the course only to get placed in a big company with a high salary. This is the bitter reality for every engineering student. In our country, children are not given a chance to follow their passion; instead, they act as machines for the happiness of the family. This forces them to choose engineering, and finally, they end up jobless. This problem can be resolved only by giving proper career guidance to the parents.
You will have to consider quite a few things before you decide between these 3 places. Most of my friends agreed that ECE is one of the toughest branches in engineering.
Additionally, other job roles you can expect from these institutes include managers in various industries. These will highly depend on your luck and personal leaning. You can expect a pay of INR 5 to 15 lakhs per annum. However, a drawback is that these companies look at your academic profile heavily. So if you have a lower grade, it is possible that this could stand as a setback.
Finally, when it comes to Tier 3 colleges NIT Rourkela is better, the job prospects from these colleges are not that great. You can expect to have a salary of INR 3 to 4 lakhs per annum with most jobs in service based companies.
