Manipal Institute of Technology

If you are within the top 100 candidates, you get rebate on tution fee. But you will still have to pay for the hostel and mess.

There's no such defined cut off. Varies every year. Depends on the candidates who scored better you as in what is the beach they opted for. I am in second year now and I got mechanical with a score of 120 out of 200 in the second counselling round. Try to score atleast 130 because competition gets tougher every year.

You might get aeronautical but i suggest that you try again and get a better score. Don't take any risk when you can make it better.

VIT does not offer Aeronautical Engineering in case you want to go for that. Also as far as I've heard the facilities in MIT are better than there. The food is good, academics is nice and there are less rules. Also regarding the restrictions, MIT gives more freedom to the students. There are many student clubs and projects here which will help you work on something you're passionate about and develop in those fields. The faculty is always eager to help students with anything and even the crowd here is good. The hostels are pretty comfortable and the campus is clean and well maintained.

There is not much scope in aeronautical as of now. But in future there will be. We've started working on a lot of research projects and the field is developing very fast these days.

Aeronautical engineering in there in only a few selected colleges in India. Manipal is by far one of the best colleges for it. The professors are very passionate and knowledgeable about the subjects. We have machines which are only there in IIT's. The labs are amazing. You can do a lot of experimental research. We have a non working plane also for better studies and also flight simulation system.

Mechanical engineering in Manipal has very good placements. Apart from that, best clgs for mechanical are bits, dtu, NITs.

Yes this course is full of scopes. It is very interesting and has a lot to develop in the future. It may not be as good as IIT's but all the facilities are good enough and one of the best we could have.

Dear Ekanshu,
All the institutes mentioned by you are equally good and thus it will be very difficult to tell which one will be the best option. However, we can help you with the parameters that you can keep in mind while choosing an institute among the four. You can consider the below parameters :
1) Faculty,
2) Affiliation / Recognition
3) Course Material,
4) Quality Education,
5) Fees
6) Infrastructure
7) Success Rate.
8) Placement
9) Top recruiting companies.
Also, if possible go through the alumni speak section to get an idea what the alumni thinks about the institute.
Wish you luck.

MIT is worth pursuing an engineering course in. Right from the 1st year they make sure we know basics that every engineer must know. The curriculum is really good. The teachers are very helpful and the college provides with a lot of facilities. The placement record is also high. This college let's you explore and bring out the best on you by providing hundreds of opportunities.
