Top Private Engineering Colleges in India 2021
Best 10 Private Engineering Colleges in India
Engineering in India is a stream that is opted by a lot of students after completing their schooling. IITs are the most desired dream of engineering aspirants. IIT-JEE (Mains and advance) is one of the most prestigious top grade pre-engineering examinations given by the aspirants. One of the many reasons for this is the attractive salary package associated with the jobs available for engineering graduates. In JEE Main every year, total 12-14 Lacs student appeared for the most sought-after engineering entrance exam and only 2.4 Lacs qualified it. Now, total seats in IITs & NITs, after including all the Mathematics of reservation and quotas are just 45,000. Hence, for every 5.7 qualified students there is one seat. Even after including IIITs and Government funded technical institutes the situation just improves to one seat per five students.
Now, you must be wondering what happens to the remaining students? The answer is that they look for other available choices. So, there is nothing to worry if you are unable to crack JEE Main, instead know some other effective options. If you are appearing for JEE Mains and want options apart from IITs, IIITs and NITs; there are some private colleges that offer the amazing engineering programmes and provide good placement opportunities to their students.
In this article, I’m not covering BIT, DAIIT,IIIT-H etc. as all we know these college are actual think beyond NITs as if you can make it to these then you might not opt for NITs either by your choice or by any choice but not because of Rank in JEE Main. Here is the list of Top Engineering Colleges in India where you admit yourself by their admission test and not solely depend on IIT-JEE MAIN.
