One of my close friends attended NIET and here is his take on the institute.
According to my friends, it will be better if you don’t consider NIET as an option, rather go for other alternatives if you have them.
You can get direct admission to Galgotia College through the management quota. For NIET, check the official website, for admission advertisements. When they release the admission notification, visit the campus. You will receive all the required information regarding the direct admission procedure. The process is straightforward. Once the process is complete, you will be accepted as a student of NIET.

The college selects its top 3 meritorious students for an international internship in Dubai, Singapore, and London.

For NIET there are a total of 2 admission procedures which are as follows.
On-campus:
Visit the campus with your academic transcripts, i.e mark sheets of 1oth, 12th, etc. Let the officials know that you are interested in taking admission for CSE. You may have to take a test to do so. These tests are usually quite easy. Also, just a tip I got from my friends at the institute that good communication skills in English go a long way there.
College Counseling:
Clear a competitive examination, like AIEEE, UPTU with good rank and choose the institute for counseling. You can also select the college based on your Mains score.

According to Galgotia University placement highlights, the average CTC offered to CSE students is around INR 4.5 LPA. Many reputed companies such as IBM, Infosys, Wipro, etc. take part in the placement drive.
My friend from school used to be a student of NIET and he has said there are two cases of life in NIET: the hostler and day scholars.
However, looking on the bright side, the faculty is supportive provided you are willing to put in the effort. The institute has a good library and despite the fact that the classes not having ACs, the labs do.

All three colleges are best at their own perspective. Students can choose to depend on factors like cost, placement, academics, facilities, and many more. Students can choose anyone depending on their choice of interest.
I studied at NIET, and my close friend chose GL Bajaj. So I know the ground reality of both these colleges.
In terms of placements and academics, both are the same. However, GL Bajaj has quite strict rules. It follows a dress code and is way more strict regarding attendance. Even if you are 5 minutes late, the main entrance won’t be opened for you. Ultimately, you’ll end up waiting outside for an hour or so. Also, you won’t be able to take leaves without prior permission from concerned authorities.
NIET does not have such strict rules and regulations. It offers a much more free environment.
So if you want more freedom, GL Bajaj is the right college. For placements and studies, both are at par with one another.
Here are some of the information from an ex-student of NIET and a good friend of mine about the girl’s hostel.
Overall the hostel experience will be average. You can opt for the college hostel in first year to make some friends, and move out later in 2nd year.
Both Noida Institute of Engineering and Technology (NIET) and Raj Kumar Goel Institute of Technology (RKGIT) are private engineering colleges located in the Delhi NCR region. I have a few friends at both the institutes and based on the conversation, I had with them, I will say NIET will be better.
The faculty and campus placements at RKGIT are not that great. Compared to RKGIT, NIET has better a better faculty base and placement record.
Here are the recent placement highlights for the two institutes.
Institute | NIET | RKGIT |
Average CTC | 3.8 LPA | 5 LPA |
Highest CTC | 11 LPA | 12.20 LPA |
Top recruiters | HCL, Capgemini, Wipro | Jaro Education, TCS |
