If your father is working in the UAE and you have completed all your schooling in India, you are still eligible to apply under the NRI quota for B.Tech admission, provided you can produce the required documents such as your father’s valid work visa, passport, proof of employment, and a sponsorship affidavit. Many private and deemed universities in India offer B.Tech admissions under the NRI quota, including institutes like VIT (Vellore Institute of Technology), SRM Institute of Science and Technology, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Manipal Institute of Technology, and BITS Pilani (Dubai campus also available). Additionally, some state government colleges and central universities have a limited number of NRI or NRI-sponsored seats. The admission process usually does not require entrance exams like JEE or state CET for NRI quota, but some institutes may conduct their own entrance test or consider your Class 12 marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. It is important to visit the official websites of the respective institutions and check their NRI admission guidelines and deadlines.

Hi Mukta,

Both the VIT Vellore and Manipal University Jaipur are excellent in their own branches of CS AI/ML in VIT and CSE in MUJ. However, the difference does exist if we compare further.

• VIT Vellore carries more reputation of being a renowned institute for engineering and thus offers better placements with slightly higher package.
• Manipal University Jaipur is much newly established as compared to VIT but also has placement exposure to MNC giants such as Amazon, Microsoft, Google etc.
• VIT is much more cost effective when it comes fee structure with total fees of B.Tech to be around 9 lakhs where as 15 lakhs of MUJ.
• The MUJ has best in class infrastructure as comparatively better infrastructure.

You should now decide based on your own preferences, you should also look which one is closer to your home for better reachability.

ALL THE BEST !

Hello Aspirant,

It depends on your priority. UPES Dehradun offers well-known specialized courses in Computer Science (AI, Cyber Security, Cloud Computing) and also has good linkages with the industry particularly in emerging technology fields. The placement statistics for niche fields is better, but the fees are generally higher.

Manipal University Jaipur, on the other hand, offers a well rounded but traditional CSE program, the Manipal brand and reputation, moderate faculty, and fast developing infrastructure. It's cheaper and gets a fair number of placements in core IT roles like Developer, Cloud Engineer, etc. If you are looking into specialized domains and have the money to spend, UPES may be the best option for you. If you are looking for a balanced value-for-money education with good placements, MU Jaipur is a solid alternative.

Yes, 380 5MET score, and your 12th score you comfortably, neat, both eligibility criteria. You are likely to be well above the cut-off for BSc nursing at Manipal University.

With an 8.9k MET rank, there's a good chance you can get into the B.Tech IT program at Manipal University Bangalore, but it depends on the specific cutoff for that program and your category (if applicable).

The expected cutoff for MIT Manipal can be between 5k to 35k.

Hello Vishal,

With a score of 121 in MET 2025 and 86% in PCM board exams , here's a general analysis:

Predicted Rank:

• A MET score of 121 typically falls in the 15,000 to 18,000 rank range , though this can slightly vary each year based on exam difficulty and student performance.

• Since MET does not officially release detailed rank-score data, this estimate is based on past trends and analysis.
  
  Chances for CSE at MUJ (Manipal University Jaipur):

• CSE at MUJ is one of the most in-demand branches, and usually the closing rank lies around 8,000 to 10,000 .

• With a predicted rank around 15,000 to 18,000 , getting CSE at MUJ is quite unlikely in the initial rounds .

• However, you may have a chance in the later rounds or spot rounds if seats remain vacant or cutoff drops.
  
  Recommendations:

• Consider applying for branches like ECE, IT, or Data Science , which have slightly higher closing ranks.

• Keep checking counselling rounds regularly for any updates or vacant seats.

• You can also look at internal sliding options after first year, based on academic performance.

I would recommend you to use MET College Predictor Tool by Careers360 to get the list of possible colleges you can get with your rank.

Scoring 82 out of 240 in the Manipal Entrance Test means your r ank is likely to be above 40,000, based on previous years’ trends. Unfortunately, this rank is quite low for CSE Stream at Manipal Institute of Technology (MIT), especially at the main Manipal campus.

A general idea of MET rank cutoffs for CSE at Manipal:

• Manipal campus (main): CSE cutoffs are typically under 3,000–4,000 rank.

• Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT) and Manipal University Jaipur (MUJ) may have higher cutoff ranks for CSE — sometimes up to 15,000–20,000 or more.
