Anna University Chennai Answered Questions

Yes, you need to write DCET exam conducted in Karnataka and depending on your rank you can select a college.
To my personal opinion, try to get MVIT as it is ranked higher in the lateral entry with a cut-off around 1500.
All the best.
The fee will be around 50K for general but you can get scholarship if you are from any special background.

Final choice should be yours. But here are some points that can guide you. SSN is a self-financing college under Anna University and so the Semester exam corrections ***! Even if you perform well, you will not get a grade as expected by you in the University examinations. There are good students who fail in any exam too and may or may not clear that subject after revaluations. The grades can affect your future job prospects whereas in MIT, which is Anna University, the same subject lecturer or any other professor from the same department will evaluate the papers. And the evaluations are mostly clear and predictive. MIT doesn't lack in infrastructure. It may not be as good-looking and lavish as SSN but still you have everything (like good labs) to learn engineering without any hiccups. In MIT, the quality of teaching may not be good but as a student, you will be well exposed to a dynamic environment where you can self-learn with seniors/peers. Last but the most important, hundreds of companies visit Anna University for placements. Salary packages from top companies have exceeded 20lpa for students. Placements are the best in this college compared to other departments.

Madras Institute of Technology comes under Anna University. So the campus is authorised to attend placements in Guindy campus of Anna University too. Now coming to the statistics, Accenture, Accolite, Air Watch, Amazon, Chronus, Citicorp, CTS, Flipkart, TCS, RBS and many others come to the campus for placements. Statistically, more than 50 percent of the students have been placed. With a filter on CS/IT department, more than 70 percent of the students were placed as of the year 2016. You have tremendous job opportunities for information technology and especially computer Science courses where is for electronic courses you are doomed that are basically only less than 5 core companies which come to the campus and only pick the cream of the class.

Under the other-state quota, candidates who are Indian citizens but not a native of Tamil Nadu can apply. Qualifying Exam and Marks: Candidates need to score a minimum of 50% aggregate marks in PCM taken together (40% in case of SC/ST candidates) in HSC or equivalent exam.

Anna University is one of the best universities in India. With the level of discipline in the campus, it stands head to head with other great Universities in India. The placement there is pretty good, but for the branch you queried is not so popular, so you'll be getting less opportunities than other branches.
