Which is better in terms of academics for CSE, placement, fee and location, NIT Arunachal, NIT Silchar or PEC Chandigarh?

My sister is an alumnus of NIT Arunachal Pradesh and has also visited NIT Silchar several times. As per her experience, the preference order to follow while making a choice between these institutes should be NIT Silchar > NIT Arunachal Pradesh>PEC The reason I placed NIT Silchar first is because it has better rankings, and even the connectivity issues have been resolved. One can now reach Silchar by road, train and via air. This has improved the placement scenario to a great extent.

NIT AP- Good or Bad

Fee for general and obc category with parent's income more than 8 lakhs is 65000 per semester. And for other categories fee is under 20000 per semester. The fee is very affordable for all. If you want you can also apply for a scholarship. Many scholarships are available, you can take benefit of any one.

College review

Since due to COVID 19 there are no fees for those who are attending online classes. But some will pay because of their higher-income namely above 5 lakhs. I am in EWS, I have no tution fees, and because I didn't get any scholarship. But you can apply for a scholarship in NSP. There is a placement cell in college to train you.
