Know the options

NIT, IIIT or GFTI - what's the difference?

  • NIT

    National Institutes of Technology

    Centrally funded institutes across India. Around half of the seats go to home-state students, so your state matters a lot.

    Strong all-round choice with moderate fees.

  • IIIT

    Indian Institutes of Information Technology

    Focused on computer science, electronics and allied fields. Admission is generally all-India, with no home-state quota.

    Great if you're sure about CS or ECE.

  • GFTI

    Government Funded Technical Institutes

    Other government-funded institutes that take part in joint counselling. Quality and fees vary widely, so research each one.

    Useful Safe and Target options - compare carefully.

Before you decide

Six things to check about any college

Rankings and brand names only tell part of the story. Use this checklist when comparing your final options.

Compare colleges
  1. 01

    Branch over brand?

    A branch you enjoy at a good college often beats a branch you dislike at a famous one.

  2. 02

    Real placement data

    Look at median packages and the share of students placed, not just the highest package.

  3. 03

    Total cost

    Add tuition, hostel, mess and travel. Check scholarships and fee waivers you qualify for.

  4. 04

    Location & life

    Distance from home, climate, language and city access matter over four years.

  5. 05

    Curriculum flexibility

    Minors, branch-change rules, electives and internship policies shape your options.

  6. 06

    Faculty & labs

    Research activity and lab facilities matter most in core branches.

Not sure which of these you can get?
