Which college should I go SRM or NMIMS for CSE?

For CSE, SRM is the better option. The academics, campus life, and facilities offered are good. Major recruiting companies such as Amazon, Honda, Cognizant, etc. recruit through the campus drive. SRM placements in 2022 witnessed the highest CTC of INR 1 CPA. The institute offers decent exposure. The networking opportunities are ample. Here is an honest review of the SRM University

B.Tech in CSE: Should I choose Maharashtra Institute of Technology (MIT, Pune), or SRM (Main Campus)?

Let’s start with the most important thing, the rankings of both the universities. According to NIRF rankings, MIT was ranked #138th for B.Tech courses and SRM was ranked #36th for engineering. Approved by AICTE, both the universities provide equally qualified faculty. Admissions MIT World Peace University Pune: The candidate must have gained 50% marks in PCM with Physics, Mathematics, and English as compulsory subjects. Scores of JEE Main 2020/ MHT-CET 2020 score. The university conducts an entrance exam namely PERA CET. The total 1st-year fees is Rs 3.1 Lakhs. SRM: The candidate must have gained 50% marks in PCM or PCB subject in 10+2 examination. Scores of SRMJEE (UG) 2020 (this entrance exam is only available to Indian residents, NRI, holders of PIO or OCI card which is issued by the Indian Government). The total 1st-year fee is 2.6 Lakhs. Placements MIT World Peace University Pune: Amazon, Infosys, Flipkart, Oracle, IBM, Wipro, Microsoft, Reliance, Aditya Birla Group, Tech Mahindra, etc. are some of the frequently visited companies in MIT. The highest package offered was INR 37.26 LPA and the average package offered to the students was INR 3.2 LPA in the on-campus selections.

Now looking at all the facilities provided by the university for CSE, he/she can choose whatever full-fills their requirements.

Should I get a Bachelor's of Technology in computer science from MSIT GGSIPU or SRM Chennai? Why?

Choose MSIT if you want to prioritize degree value over cost. Otherwise, go with SRM. MSIT CSE placements are excellent, but if you live in a politically neutral environment with large campuses, consider SRM, Chennai. Technical societies, such as IEEE, are very active, and if you are fortunate enough to be a part of them, it is better for you in terms of placement and 'knowledge building. If you are serious about expanding your knowledge, there are a few amazing teachers as well as seniors who can assist and guide you. It is entirely up to you to make the most of the available opportunities.

Admission to SRM University is primarily through the SRMJEEE entrance exam, covering physics, chemistry, and mathematics, usually held in April. Candidates with ranks under 5,000 are more likely to secure a Computer Science seat at the main campus. Tuition fees depend on rank, with students below 10,000 paying around 2 lakh INR annually, and those above 10,000 paying approximately 3.5 lakh INR. Fees can be paid online, often in installments.

Additional costs include hostel and mess fees, pushing the total cost for a four-year engineering program to around 16-17 lakh INR. SRM offers diverse scholarships based on entrance exam ranks, academic performance, sports achievements, and socio-economic background. The university boasts a strong placement record, with over 600 companies visiting annually, including major IT firms like TCS and Infosys. The average salary package ranges from INR 4 to 6.5 LPA, with the highest reaching INR 57 LPA.

Over 90% of participating students secure jobs, aided by workshops and training from the placement cell.

Despite some criticism, the faculty is generally supportive, and the overall educational environment is conducive to learning.

True Review

Dislikes

The tuition fees are quite expensive compared to other private collages and on top of that additional charges like hostel,message and lab fees add up.
While the curriculum is industry -oriented at times it feels too theory heavy or outdated in certain electives.

Fees and Financial Aid:

My experience at SRM IST,Chennai I am enrolled in SRM University and my annual fees is 300000.Considering the infrastructure,faculty ,labs and placement support,SRM has offered God value for what I am paying. The campus is modern,labs and workshop are well-equipped. Professors are approachable and the curriculum is relevant with good tie-ups/industry exposure. Even though the fees are relatively high,I was able to get scholarship(via SRM JEEE /merit) which significantly reduced the financial burder.withiut that it would have been difficult. Other fees(registration, development,lab,etc.) and hostel/message add up. So 300000/year is not the only expanse. The scholarship/waiver you get may require you to maintain a high CGPA in following years. If performance falls,waiver might be reduced or lost. Fee increments are happening; newer batches pay more.So if you join later, expect somewhat higher fees Over Verdict: For what I pay ,SRM IST gives a good academic, faculties and career prospects.the financial, and career prospects. The financial aid I got made a big difference. If you can secure a scholarship and are serious about studies, this college is worth it. And placement is also good here ,evey big MNCs is come here for hiring .

Person with expectations, College full of regrets

I used to pay 300000 for one year and i am pursuing a B. Tech degree so for four years the total fee cost would be 12L just for the college and if you choose the hostels as well it would cost you roughly around 20L

My SRM review

The fees is a little on the expensive side.

Yearly fees is 475000 with no additional costs except the hostel fees and the money required for buying lab coats, calculator etc. The entrance test exam registration fees was 1400?. There are people with a 100% scholarship in tuition as well as hostel fees. The college doesn't plan on increasing their fees anytime soon. I belong to the general category

What you should consider before joining SRM

Likes

The faculty and syllabus structure overall is good

the year wise fee is around 3 lakhs but it depends on your scholarship. it will reduce. But if you have lower marks the donation you pay will be more than average. There are compulsory fees like the career development cell which is 25000 and book fees which is 20000. The registration fee is 10000 and lab fee comes under admission. There are many scholarships available. So you can explore based on your needs

SRM Ramapuram - a full blown advice

easily get marks, fill up your paper as much as you can and youre good to go

i usually pay 2.5 tuition fees, and 15k for book and 25k for career development. they also ask for 10k extra for registration in the first year. this is how it is for management students. there aint much of a reservation quota in srm ramapuram tho. if you score well in srmjeee theres a good chance you get at least 50- even a lakh compensated by the clg each year (if you maintain a good cgpa). most of the seats are management seats only. only a very few seats are given for merit students covering almost more than 90% of the fee.

The fees of SRM is on the very expensive side, especially for CSE branch.

For CSE core and CSE with specialisation in AI-ML branches at SRM Kattankulathur, the yearly tuition fee is Rs.475000, for four years, making a total of Rs.1900000. For other CSE specialisations (like cybersecurity, datascience, etc), the yearly tuition fee is Rs.375000. For non CSE branches such as ECE, EEE, Biotech, the fee is Rs.275000 per year. These fees remain the same for all four years of the B.Tech program and do not increase annually. There are no extra fees apart from the semester exam fees. Components like caution fee, registration fee, development fee, and lab charges are already included in the yearly tuition fees. Scholarship Details: Students can apply for scholarships based on their SRMJEEE rank(under 1000) or JEE Mains rank(under 10000). Depending on their rank, a scholarship of upto 75% off on tuition fee for the first year can be availed. However to retain the scholarship in subsequent years, students must maintain a 9.5+ CGPA each year.
