I have scored 86 marks in JEE and 86.4% in boards is there any chance of getting IT in Heritage institute of technology?

MS
Madhurima Sen Posted On : September 9th, 2021
B.Tech in Information Technology from Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata in 2020

Before making a decision on what college you want to get admitted to there are some factors that must be kept in mind: the quality of academics and faculty, extra-curricular activities, the record of recent placements.

  1. In the Heritage Institute of Technology, the head of the department barely ever engaged in any interaction with the students and never had a say in any matter. 
  2. The quality of the faculty members is not good. There are exceptions but most of them lack knowledge so they are of not much help.
  3. No events involving extra-curricular activities take place on the campus.
  4. Talking about the placements, the average salary package is only around INR 3-4 LPA. Companies like Wipro and TCS visit the campus but the job roles offered are not good. 

There are far better options such as IEM and Techno India. Heritage is an overhyped institute. Also, look for institutes that are not in Kolkata if you want better exposure.

The rent for these rooms can range from INR 5000-5500. The names for few such hostels are M.B Hostel, Saraswati Hostel, And Vivekananda Hostel.

If I want to go into Techno India or the Heritage Institute of Technology of West Bengal through the management quota then how much money may I be asked to pay?

TD
Tilottama Das Posted On : September 15th, 2021
Completed B.Tech in Computer Science,Jalpaiguri Government Engineering College in 2020

Taking donation money depends on how many seats are available. The donation fee will be high for the streams that have a lot of demand.

However, if there are seats that are vacant, you can try spot counseling and you will not be charged at all for this except for the fee required for admission.

The money that you might be asked to pay can vary depending on the financial situation of the candidates. Getting in touch with the management facility will help you in getting a clear idea. Keep in mind, however, that people who opted for the management quota had to pay huge amounts of money.

Almost 10% of the seats were kept aside for management quota candidates and they are given on the basis of ‘first come first’. Some people got admitted without paying anything at all except for the admission fee and some had to pay huge amounts of money to get in.

Another thing about getting admission through quota is you may lag behind your peers. Even if you do get admission, a lot depends on you as well.

What is the exact amount of money (donation) needed to get in CSE at Heritage Institute of Technology through the management quota?

SR
Senjuti Roy Posted On : September 21st, 2021
Studied Computer Science Engineering at Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata (2018)

The amount keeps changing every year. There is no fixed amount.

Nowadays, the college follows a system of seat-booking whereby you can book a seat if you are not quite sure about your admission to any college. You will have to pay a certain amount specified by the college and your seat will be booked in the stream that you want to opt for if you join the college.

The system is a little different and it is not exactly like the management quota in other colleges. The amount that you have to pay depends on which branch you want to opt for. The more demanding the branch, the more the amount of donation. For example, branches like Computer Science or Electronics are charged more than branches like Applied Instrumentation or Biotechnology.

I would recommend you book a seat and later decide whether you want to join or not. This will cost you less. But, you will have to decide within a short span of time otherwise the authority will move the list and give admission to a lower-ranked individual.

I left aerospace engineering at IIEST and joined Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata with Electronics and communication engineering a year later. Was it the right decision?

SS
Sangita Saha Posted On : September 10th, 2021
Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata

Well, I cannot say whether the decision you took is right or wrong because if you have taken the decision you have given certain thought and time into it. 

Very few have the guts to leave a premier institute like IIEST and join Heritage. If you changed institute because you wanted to change your branch there but you couldn’t, then you made the right choice. 

If you’re interested in higher studies after B.Tech then Heritage does offer good opportunities. ECE has huge scopes. Coming to Heritage, ECE faculty and labs are very good, the teachers will guide you in the best possible way to help you pursue your dreams. One of my friends left civil at NIT, Durgapur for ECE here. Heritage has a decent placement record. According to the recent placement highlights the average CTC offered is 4 LPA. 

If you’re interested in higher studies, then choosing the branch you are passionate about is always a better option than choosing a good institute.
