You have not specified your category, I will try to mention most of them and you can check your eligibility accordingly.

The examination paper has been tougher than the previous years. A 300 in UPTU means a rank ranging from 16001-25000. You can refer to this table and see which one fits your profile.

B.Tech in Computer Science Engineering
Category IET Lucknow Cut Off KNIT Sultanpur Cut Off
General 193-342 865-1079
OBC 357-495 1183-1438
SC 2749-4252 4968-7208
ST 9914-9914 -

There are chances that you might get in if you fit a certain category. Also, your rank might get CS in any other government college except for IET Lucknow but if you are from the SC category, there might be a chance. Getting admission for core subjects might be harder.

I got 304 marks in the UPSEE. My rank in general category is 9458 and in girl's category, it is 1239. Can I get admission at IET Lucknow or KNIT Sultanpur in either electrical or electronics branch?

Considering your UPSEE rank in the girl category, I think you should get easily in KNIT Sultanpur. Mostly even a seat in IET Lucknow is possible.

The girls above your rank must be trying multiple other entrance exams as well and there is a maximum possibility that half of them will go to IITs or NITs. Your rank is very good and girls above you are more capable on average.

UPSEE Cutoff Round (General Category) –

Courses KNIT Sultanpur IET Lucknow
B. Tech in Electronics Engineering 1862 to 2440 508 to 784
B. Tech in Electrical Engineering 2258 to 2950 835 to 1132

Don't worry I think you should get one among the mentioned seats. Good luck!

There are primarily three major factors that determine whether a college is good or bad. These include - facilities, placements, and faculty. Let me provide you a brief insight about it, which might help you understand it a bit better.

Faculty: All three institutes, BIET, KNIT, and JSS, is affiliated with AKTU and the faculty belong to the same level of expertise.

Placements:JSS provides good industry exposure. The location of JSS is also pretty convenient as it enables access to places near and far.

Which is better, IT at IIIT Una or CS at KNIT Sultanpur?

PV
Pranav Verma Posted On : July 3rd, 2021
MCA from Kamla Nehru Institute Of Technology (2019)

IT at IIIT Una is better than CS at KNIT Sultanpur. The reasons for the same are given below.

  • Infrastructure - IIIT Una does not have its own campus yet. Currently, it is functioning from NIT Hamirpur campus. Thus IIIT Una students enjoy the same great facilities and the lush green campus as NIT Hamirpur students. KNIT Sultanpur has average to bad infrastructure.
  • Locality - Again the temporary campus at NIT Hamirpur is much better than Sultanpur.
  • Education - In this regard, both may be equal but owing to better facilities being provided by NIT Hamirpur, IIIT Una will be considered better. The fee is almost the same in both the colleges.

It is advisable to talk to some of the current as well as recent alumni of both the institutes to know the exact state of the colleges and their placement records. IIIT Una is still very new and evolving. KNIT is also a good option but looking at other things and the future growth potential IIIT Una should be preferred.

What is the difference between the college of UPSEE IET Lucknow and KNIT except location?

RS
Rishabh Singhal Posted On : August 6th, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Technology, Dhanbad (2020)

My brother is an alumnus of IET Lucknow and was able to shed some light on the differences between IET Lucknow and KNIT. 

  • IET Lucknow has a higher brand value than KNIT Sultanpur. 
  • IET Lucknow provides a better environment and exposure because it is located in the heart of the city and is well-connected to the rest of the city. 
  • In comparison to KNIT, you can find students with good grades at IET Lucknow. In comparison to KNIT, placements at IET Lucknow are significantly better. According to the recent placement statistics the median CTC offered at IET is around 4.5 LPA. While the average CTC offered at KNIT is 4 LPA.
  • In terms of academics and infrastructure also, IET is significantly superior. 

If you are in KNIT, you would have to travel to Lucknow or Allahabad for any placement drives or tests, as most firms or companies will not travel to the college in a rural area for placement drives.

Which is better IT at IET or CSE at KNIT?

D
DebugDiode Posted On : February 26th, 2026

When it comes to UPTU colleges, there's barely any difference between IT and CSE. Their courses and syllabus are pretty much the same, except maybe in the last semester. If job placements are your main concern, both branches offer similar opportunities as long as you put in the effort.

Since the branches are almost identical, the choice should be based on the college. IET has an advantage over KNIT in terms of location and infrastructure. For placements, IET is generally seen as slightly better, but KNIT isn't far behind either. You might want to check out some answers online for more insights about KNIT.

Although I don’t know much about IET, I can say that the seniors at KNIT Sultanpur are very supportive. They are always ready to help, even if they're busy, and they often hold language and competitive programming classes. If you're aiming for exams like GATE or CAT, KNIT Sultanpur provides a good environment for preparation.

In the end, both colleges can offer you a successful future, so choose whichever feels right for you. Good luck!

How is KNIT Sultanpur? Is it worth joining compared to top private UPTU colleges?

M
MemeMaestro Posted On : February 26th, 2026

It's funny to see these comparisons, and I get why people are confused about this. Private colleges are really good at advertising this time of year, and some students from these colleges often talk up how amazing their school is. If by "top" private colleges you mean places like JSS or KIET, then those are usually the ones people are talking about. These schools are in better locations than Sultanpur, but is that the only thing you should think about? You should decide for yourself.

I've heard some folks say that AKTU government colleges have terrible placements because they're in out-of-the-way locations, which keeps companies from visiting. That's just not true. The overall placement situation at AKTU isn’t great, but government colleges still generally offer better placement quality and quantity compared to private ones. They don't advertise their placements much, and fewer students are eager to join companies like TCS or Infosys that offer starting salaries around 3.5 lpa.

JSS is still well-regarded among private colleges in AKTU. If you think government colleges under AKTU aren't worth it, then JSS is probably your best bet.

Is Mahindra Ecole Centrale university good?

A
AlphaAlpaca Posted On : February 26th, 2026

I’m doing my Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) at Mahindra Ecole Centrale, and I find it pretty good. The curriculum is updated regularly to keep up with job requirements, and the focus on real-world applications is beneficial. The fees are around 3.5 lakhs per year, which is manageable, but the internship stipends could be better. The campus life is decent, with a couple of major fests and numerous clubs to join. So, I’d say it’s a good option if you’re looking for a BBA program.

How was your first day in class at KNIT Sultanpur?

R
RamRefrain Posted On : February 25th, 2026

I'm from the 2012-16 batch, studying electrical engineering. Even though I'm in my final year now, I can still vividly recall my first day at KNIT. It was on August 20, 2012, when I stepped into the college and was amazed by the green campus. But things changed when I headed to the academic section; seniors caught up with me. On my way to the hostel, they told me to keep my eyes down and scolded me.

When I got to the hostel, room assignments began and were finished by 8:30 am. The hostel warden then told us to get ready for the college orientation by 11 am. We were all excited, but then around 11 am, a group of about 20 seniors came into the hostel, yelled at us, and laid down the rules: like wearing formals with shoes and a tie even outside class, and greeting everyone, including the sweepers and guards, with a good morning or evening.

After a long talk, they took us around to show the campus, labs, workshop, library, canteen, and bank. This orientation lasted two hours, and throughout, they ragged us and interacted with the newbies. Luckily, this phase ended after the fresher’s event, and the seniors became friendly. They helped us with studies, assignments, and even placements. There’s a lot of time here to learn new things and discover yourself. The classes are mostly just for show. Overall, my time at KNIT has been fantastic.
