Good Afternoon Sir, my daughter has got theough VIT Vellore CSE core in category 5. She might also get thru NIT in Mechanical or Chemical branch as we are from Chhattisgarh. Kindly suggest
Ans: Piyush Sir, Your daughter has secured admission to VIT Vellore for CSE (Category 5), which offers excellent placement opportunities with average packages around ?9.9 LPA and top recruiters like Microsoft and Amazon. However, Category 5 fees are high, approximately ?5 lakh per year.
As a home state candidate from Chhattisgarh, she also has good chances of admission to NITs in Mechanical or Chemical Engineering through home state reservation. These branches offer solid education with average packages of ?6-8 LPA and lower fees (around ?1-2 lakh per year).
If her priority is Computer Science with strong industry exposure and higher salary potential, VIT Vellore is a great choice despite higher fees. If budget is a concern and she is open to core branches, NITs provide quality education with government funding and good placements.
Recommendation: Weigh branch preference, career goals, and financial feasibility carefully. Participating in NIT counselling alongside VIT admission will help make an informed decision. All the best for your daughter's admission and a bright future!
