I have got electrical in KIIT and a rank of 1417 in UPES.....which college should I join and why???

I dont want to sound biased here therefore would say both the institutes are doing well in their respective fields. Otherwise speaking, studying in UPES would be a good decision as one of my cousin is studying there. UPES, Dehradun is known for its Core Domain Specific courses like IT, Oil and Gas,

KIIT is a reputed institute and more preferred over UPES. Better to go for KIIT. KIIT is a deemed university means equivalent to NITs,BITS etc. UPES is just a pvt university equivalent to LPU and Sharda. Choice is yours.
