A comparison of the top-ranked (NIRF 2023) colleges for their BArch programme on the basis of multiple components, such as fee and seats are tabulated below:

Architecture Colleges	NIRF Ranking 2023	Median Salary	Total Tuition Fee
IIT Kharagpur	3	INR 12.62 LPA	INR 10 lakh
NIT Calicut	2	INR 3.5 LPA	INR 6.25 lakh

As per the above table, it can be concluded that while the ranking of NIT Calicut is better, the median salary offered to its BArch students compared to that of IIT KGP is at a lower end. However, in terms of affordability again, NIT Calicut can be a preferred option. Hence, students can check all these parameters, calculate an ROI and take a decision wisely basis their preferences.
