Is it a Good Option to Choose Newer NITs for B.Tech Admission?
The first thing that all the NIT aspirants must know is that selecting a newer NIT for B.Tech admission is not a bad idea, though you need to do good research regarding the college you are planning to take admission into. Many NITs are still emerging, and most of the newer NITs do not have a permanent campus as well; though the central government is trying its best to set up permanent campuses for newer NITs at the earliest.
The B.Tech degree granted by NITs (whether its old or new NIT) holds value in the job market and post completing the course; the graduates can easily get lucrative job offers by some of the top companies. However, before you choose an NIT, you must check the campus, infrastructure, facilities as well. You can also get in touch with the old students or senior students of newer NITs before making admission choice as it will give you an insight on which NIT to choose.
You must now have complete and detailed knowledge regarding the engineering colleges that accept JEE Main Score, which in turn will help you to know the colleges even if you score more than 50,000. You can check the JEE Main cut off ranks which will help you to choose the appropriate college as per your rank. We hope this detailed article on the engineering colleges that accept JEE Main Score will help you to make your decision and confusion regarding which college to choose after JEE Main is also sorted out.
