Ans: Hello Megha.
Respect your daughter. Instead of chasing after the brand, choose the one that benefits your daughter. RV College is also a reputable brand in India. ECE @ RV will be a better choice than IIT Roorkee for a dual degree. Without any hesitation, go for ECE @ RV with a smiling face.

Good luck.

Ans: Hello dear,
Both options are similar in many ways. They are reputable and have nearly identical placement records. It is better for you to choose the full scholarship option by selecting RIT. However, I recommend visiting both campuses in person, reviewing all the details, and ensuring you're satisfied. You will spend nearly 4-5 years on campus, so meet the students and visit the placement offices too. Ultimately, the decision will be yours.

Good luck.
