Hello,

If you are highly interested in computer science and engineering then if you don't get seat in any NIT then you may go for private colleges. Because ultimately the branch which you will study for complete whole 4 years will matter and not the college. However if you want to get admission in NIT only then you may seek for IT seat. As IT and CSE are almost similar. The students from both the branches gets placed in same companies. Atlast its the knowledge and your experience which will matter the most.

All the best
