What should be the preference order of IIIT Lucknow, IIIT Jabalpur and IIIT Gwalior for CS?

Among the above three institutes, IIIT Gwalior is the best choice, considering the fact that it is the oldest IIIT and offers excellent placement and academic facilities. The preference order of choice among the institutes is given below.

IIIT Gwalior > IIIT Jabalpur > IIIT Lucknow

The table below gives a brief level of comparison among the three institutes.

Key Highlights:

• The cut-off for admission to IIIT Gwalior is a validation of the fact that it is the best choice. It has its infrastructure spread across a 100-acre campus, being the oldest IIIT and maintaining its standard of placement and academics.
• Jabalpur has a 260-acre campus. In terms of placement and infrastructure, it comes just after IIIT Gwalior. But in terms of research, IIIT Jabalpur is ahead of the other two.
• IIIT Lucknow has a 50-acre campus and is mostly under construction, and is just 2 batches old. It is growing with time and needs to gain fame eventually. IIIT Lucknow has good placement, even in the first pass-out batch. It would be an excellent choice in the future if the records in placement are retained.

Therefore, the above order is the choice of preference a candidate will find relevant. No candidate should be misguided just by recent placement records and statistics.
