Out of these two, Dayanand Sagar is definitely a better choice because it is an autonomous institute. However, you will encounter multiple distractions on the campus and it is advisable to be cognizant and not to neglect studies.

Dayanand Sagar has a good reputation in terms of co-curricular activities. One of my friends, who got RNSIT in the first round, waited and later opted for DSCE in 2nd round.

Trust me it was one of the life-changing decisions in his life. Rest is up to you, do whatever you feel like.

Yes, joining Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering through COMEDK is totally worth it. The college is among the top 10 colleges in Bangalore. You will not find any other college with such good infrastructure in Bangalore, it is the best.

However, whether it will be worth joining or not depends on the branch that you want to join. I have a few friends from Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering and according to them, the mechanical engineering department is quite good. 

DSCE also has a good placement record. In the recent placement, the average CTC offered was 4.5 lakhs, while 15 lakhs was the highest CTC offered. 

One of my friends is a student at Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering and here is her insight into the placements for EEE and EIE. 

Both departments have a distinct curriculum and hence different companies recruit from these branches. 

• As EEE is the core field, it is difficult to get the cutoff for few companies such as Accenture, mu-sigma, HP, etc. The number of core companies visiting the campus for placement is quite less in number.
• Whereas EIE doesn't have single-core companies visiting while there are a lot of open options to sit in for mass recruiting companies.
• The average package offered stays around 3-4 LPA.

Although, the recent change in curriculum due to the university's switch from VTU to autonomous, has seen an increase in the companies visiting the campus and will soon fetch better margins on placements.

A few years back, my friend had a rank of 13193 and he got Electrical and Electronics in Dayananda Sagar. So you can expect branches like EIE, EEE, ECE, TE, etc. Here are the recent cutoff trends at the institute.

You also have an option to change or upgrade your branch in the second round of counseling.

One of my friends studied at Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE). According to him, there are two kinds of boys hostels:

• Hostel for NRI: This might cost around 1.5 lakhs, I'm not sure though.
• Indian Hostel: Two Indian Hostels are located within and one outside the university, around 800 m from the university.

Also, know about these facts before coming to any conclusion.

• The residents of the Indian hostel have their own Hostel Mess where the food is like a limitless buffet there truly is excellent. 
• In the building where people can also visit, the NRI Hostel has its own canteen. 
•  It was rather cramped as 4 people had to share a room in the Indian hostels. 
• One of the beneficial features is that in this hostel you may occasionally obtain decent wireless speeds. 
• In the 2nd or 3rd year, most of my friends who went to hostels for the very first year moved to PG or home to find it cheaper. 
• The cost may now have altered as the college and all these things become independent. So everything is the finest. 

Two men's hostels and Two hostels for Girls. For girls. Many pgs are also with outstanding amenities in and near the university. Nevertheless, the hostel is mostly recommended for fresher boys. 

It can be very difficult to obtain the certificate for a course you left midway. If you are already in college and have recently completed the first year, then it is close to impossible to gain the certificate back. 

I have a friend who once encountered a similar situation at the institute. 

• In his case whatsoever, the administration, quite clearly, was generally demanding the full tuition fee payment granted for a period of 4 years. 
• However, due to a mutual treaty, the amount was reduced from the one demanded before. 
• The administration and the family later came to a mutual decision to get things sorted.
• It is best that you either do not intend to join the institute or if you recently have, then it is best to continue the course until the end. 
• As it is futile to let your finances go to waste if you do not eventually extract anything out of it. 

The choice of obtaining the certificate, either way, can take almost around 6 months to a year, which is outrageous in the first place. 

My cousin is currently pursuing B.Tech in Computer Science and Engineering at Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering and his experience till now has been pretty good.

You can check out the placement of Dayanand College of Engineering for the years 2019 and 2020 in the table mentioned below.

A CSE degree from Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering is definitely better than ISE from Bangalore Institute of Technology. 

One of my close friends graduated from Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering, Bangalore, and here is his insight on the evaluation of exam papers at the institute.

There is an option of revaluation but for this, you have to pay 500 for every subject. To evaluate your paper, you have to go to your department and fill out the details like your University Seat Number (USN) and subject code in which you want revaluation.

After this procedure, a portal will come to the official site of Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering where you have to make payment. 

Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering is better in terms of placements, fests, and overall environment. Here are some of the things that you should consider before choosing any of these two institutes. 

• PESIT is UGC, AACSB, NAAC, and AICTE recognized. DSCE is a private institute recognized by AICTE, UGC, and Grade A accredited by NAAC.
• DSCE is VTU affiliated, and PESIT is under PES University.

The fee and placement statistics for the institute are given below.

In conclusion, PESIT south campus is the better option if you are looking for academics. Otherwise, DSCE will be great.
