- There are societies like Student Alumni Interaction Cell (SAIC), with biased selection criteria.
- There is the 75% attendance criterion.

What should I choose: NITK CSE or IIIT Hyderabad CSE?
The decision of choosing one between NITK CSE and IIIT Hyderabad CSE depends on what kind of college life you are looking for. To be frank, if you want a dynamic campus life with an equally good but light curriculum, NIT Surathkal is better than IIIT Hyderabad because the matter has a very rigid campus life that focuses entirely on academics. NIT Surathkal will give you a huge baggage of memories, a good job, and some good connections. But IIIT Hyderabad will help you become a person of responsibility whose only focus is building a career.
NIT Surathkal brings you together with people from all corners of the country which makes the experience better. IIIT Hyderabad on the other hand has only two branches - CSE and ECE. So the former may not make you a very talented CS engineer but will surely develop your personality as a whole.
So the best way to decide is to analyze your inclination, and then make an informed decision.

What will be the fees for a management quota in either MIT Pune or VIT Pune for B.Tech in CSE?
Management quota fees for MIT Pune and VIT Pune BTech CSE — these are among the most-searched admission questions in Maharashtra, and the numbers change each year. Here's the current picture.
MIT Pune (Maharashtra Institute of Technology, Kothrud):
- Management quota tuition: approximately ?2.2-2.5 lakhs/year (vs. state merit quota ~?1.5-1.8L/year).
- Unofficial donation/capitation (informal reports): ?5-10 lakhs for CSE management quota — NOT officially acknowledged or receipted.
- Total 4-year cost (official fees only): ~?9-11 lakhs tuition + ?4-6L hostel = ~?15-17L.
VIT Pune (Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Bibwewadi):
- Management quota tuition: approximately ?1.8-2.2 lakhs/year (slightly lower than MIT Pune).
- Similar informal reports of unofficial donations for CSE — unverifiable officially.
- Total 4-year: ~?8-10 lakhs tuition + hostel.
How to avoid capitation entirely:
- Apply through DTE Maharashtra's CAP (Centralized Admission Process). Even management quota seats are increasingly being filled via CAP in recent years.
- JEE Main score + 12th board marks both considered in CAP — a decent JEE score can get you these colleges without any unofficial payment.
Both colleges are good (NAAC A+), but for pure placement: MIT Pune has slightly stronger brand in Pune's engineering ecosystem. VIT Pune is comparable. Verify latest fees at dte.maharashtra.gov.in.
