Question by Anirban on May 30, 2025

Hi sir My son got admission in VIT Bhopal CSE Cat 2 and expected marks in ComedK is 80 marks. Should deposit fees for VIT Bhopal or wait for Comedk results on 7 th June as have to deposit VIT fees by 5th June. Please advise? Thank you

Ans: Anirban Sir, Apologize for the late reply due to a large number of questions raised by parents/students. Given your son’s admission to VIT Bhopal CSE (Category 2) and an expected 80 marks in COMEDK, here’s a balanced assessment: The VIT Bhopal fee deposit deadline is June 5, while COMEDK results will be declared on June 7 at 2 PM, and counselling registration starts June 9. With 80 marks in COMEDK, admission to top-tier Bangalore colleges (like RVCE, BMSCE, MSRIT) for CSE is highly unlikely, as their cutoffs are typically much higher; with this score, your son may get branches like IT/ECE in lower-tier COMEDK colleges, but CSE in reputed colleges is improbable. VIT Bhopal, though not as renowned as VIT Vellore, offers solid placements, modern infrastructure, and national-level recognition, making it a safe and quality option for CSE. Since VIT’s counselling and fee payment are time-sensitive and non-refundable, and given the slim chances of a better CSE seat through COMEDK, it is advisable to deposit the VIT Bhopal fees to secure the seat, unless you are comfortable risking the VIT seat for a less certain outcome via COMEDK. If finances permit and you are open to non-CSE branches or lower-tier colleges, you could wait, but for CSE in a nationally recognized institution, securing VIT Bhopal now is the safer choice. All the BEST for your Son's Admission & a Prosperous Future!

Hi sir, Out of Reva university and Acharaya Institute of technology which is better option..

Ans: Reva University (NAAC A++, ?3.86–6.75L fees) offers 70–90% placements (?30LPA peak) with Amazon/Bosch, modern labs, and a green campus, ideal for budget-focused students. Acharya Institute (NAAC A, ?3.86–10.46L fees) boasts 75–85% placements (?65LPA peak via Mercedes/IBM), a 120-acre campus with ABB Robotics/L&T labs, and stronger industry ties. While Reva suits affordability and decent tech roles, Acharya excels in premium infrastructure, global certifications (Google/Siemens), and niche opportunities (EV, robotics).

Recommendation:
Choose Acharya Institute for higher earning potential, advanced labs, and industry networks. Opt for Reva if prioritizing accreditation and lower fees. Both lack top rankings but cater to mid-tier engineering aspirants.
