One of my friends is an alumnus of IET Lucknow, and according to him, IET Lucknow has no official dress code in particular. You can wear casuals. At the beginning of the first year, there is an induction program of 21 days where the college suggests having a dress code. But nobody adheres to this rule. However, in the Electrical department, students need to wear shoes instead of slippers.

But just because there is no dress code does not mean you can come to the college wearing inappropriate clothes. It is better to put on presentable clothes that reflect your personality and who you are. 

If you have secured a seat at IET Lucknow, then you must have performed well academically. Now, when shifting your concern to the fee structure, then you will have to pay an amount of around INR 52,825 as the primary tuition fee. Alongside the tuition fees, if you are planning to opt for a hostel in the later stage, then it can amount to at least INR 10,500.

Besides the tuition fee and your subsequent hostel fees, you also have to follow up with the submission of a certain security fee as well, which amounts to at least INR 5,000, forming a subtotal of INR 63,325 + INR 5,000.

Other than that, if you have secured a fee waiver seat, then you might have to pay about INR 23825 as the tuition fees alongside the charges mentioned formerly, forming a subtotal of about INR 34,825 + INR 5,000.

Students who join IET Lucknow tend to have higher ranks in JEE (Mains) than JIIT Noida. But JIIT Noida is mostly preferred by students, here’s why:

Location

• Due to its location, JIIT Noida is mostly preferred. Being closer to Delhi, it has access to nearby corporate houses and IT firms.
• Students get to attend seminars and industry visits quite often.

Quality of Education

• The faculty is much better at JIIT Noida. Being a private institution, it provides personality development and other exposures.
• Students tend to follow a routine and are disciplined.

Placements

• JIIT Noida is better than IET Lucknow in placements for sure.
• The CSE department is the best among others.
• The highest and the second-highest salary offered at JIIT Noida to the batch of 2016-20 are INR 43.17 LPA by Adobe and INR 34 LPA by DE Shaw.
• CSE is also the best branch at IET Lucknow.
• Students get placement offers from Microsoft with a salary of INR 37 LPA. However, on average it is decent.
• Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) is a regular recruiter at IET Lucknow for ECE students.

Being a government-run college, IET has far fewer restrictions than JIIT Noida which appeals to many students. But it lacks in personality development and other exposures which you will get at JIIT Noida.

Now that you have known about both the colleges, I think you can clearly understand yourself and make a choice according to what you need.

IET Lucknow is a pretty old college. As it is quite old you cannot expect the infrastructure to be in a good state even though there is lots of maintenance. My sister used to be a student of IET and here is some of her insight on the institute. 

• The infrastructure of the campus is very old.
• The classrooms are not as good as they should be. There are fans in the classroom but not many are in working conditions. Overall the infrastructure is fine but not as attractive as a good private college or any IIT/NIT.
• Hostels are very good for 1st and 2nd year and have some sports facilities too. All mess has AC and the food they serve are better than most other colleges.
• The hostel life is good although there is some restriction for girls as you cannot go out after 8 pm. But things are changing and I hope you will have a better experience.
• In IET you will get a lot of exposure through various clubs like EXCELSIOR the literary club, Abhivyakti-the magazine team, IET Whiteboard- Media team, IET Josh - the drama team, and many others.

Though IET is an old college, it is Government College and cost-effective. The one who doesn’t get into IITs or NIT’s for some reason can join IET. ECE and CSE are most reputed in IET. 

If you are appearing for the B.Tech admissions, then you can undeniably enroll via Uttar Pradesh State Entrance Exam (UPSEE).

• You will be required to fill the form primarily.
• Following that, you will have to appear for an entrance exam.
• Based on your scorecard, after the exam is over, you can go on to appear in the counseling procedure.
• Every particular government institute and private colleges usually take part in it. Other than that, you can go on to choosing your stream.

Following your choice, you will be informed about the colleges or institutes you will obtain admission in.

According to my friends from IET, the sports facilities on campus are decent. Every hostel has been equipped with one TT table, alongside one Badminton court. In fact, there is the provision of a main ground inside the college campus where you can play different forms of sports, such as football, cricket, and several other outdoor games. 

Alongside the available football and cricket ground, the college also offers one lawn tennis court. Students also enjoy the sports fest conducted every year by the college community, inviting several outside teams to compete. 

If you have the skills, then you can also get the opportunity to represent the college in the sports fest of IITs and other colleges. 

IET Lucknow is a government college and the students there have cracked some difficult competitive exams and bagged seats through good ranks. This also gives you the added assurance that the students you will come across are very capable.

• Students often do not end up cracking the JEE Advanced exams, but there are a lot who do end up cracking the exam.
• This creates an environment of learning at IET Lucknow and serves as a way in which the students engage in their overall improvement.
• The faculty at IET Lucknow is very experienced and it has grown more robust lately due to some new appointments.
• In terms of the placements, the students pursuing CS, IT, or EC will get placed right from the campus.
• The students in the core branches prepare for appearing in the government examinations.
• The coursework is not as rigorous as the IITs but if you are committed enough you will be able to achieve your goals.
• There are also a lot of extra-curricular activities which will help you in honing your skills and development of personality.
• In your final year, you will be given a single room (no sharing).
• IET Lucknow also boasts of labs that are admirable.

After looking at these points, it is suggested that you go for IET Lucknow rather than ABES. But ultimately you decide to choose. So choose wisely as this may shape your future.

IET Lucknow is among the top-rated institutes in the country that is affiliated with Dr. Abdul Kalam Technical University (AKTU) while MMM Gorakhpur has been reconstructed by the Government of Uttar Pradesh.

There is no such huge difference between IET Lucknow and MMM Gorakhpur. The quality of the faculties and the college infrastructure is good in both of these colleges. As per the GATE score and IES, the ratio of students of both of these colleges who qualify for the entrance exams is the same every year.

The main difference among both of these institutes lies in terms of placements. Here are the placement highlights.

The difference seen in placements is due to the number of companies that visit the college, IET is near to NCR region and due to its location, it has better placements than MMMUT.
