    San Jose State University's Electrical Engineering programme is better than New York University's program. As per the unofficial source, San Jose State University ranked #15 for providing the best undergraduate Engineering program, where New York University stands at # 66 position. In addition, the acceptance criteria at San Jose are easier (with an 80% acceptance rate) than at New York University (with a 9% acceptance rate). Students with above-average academic performance can easily get into San Jose whereas the admission criteria are tougher in the case of NYU.

Columbia accepts around 4 applications for every 100 it receives. Its acceptance rate was 4.29% for the Class of 2029. NYU accepts twice the number of applications, at an 8% acceptance rate. You would have to work hard to get into either. However, at NYU you have a better chance.

As an international student, you would need a strong GPA of around 3.62 on a 4.0 scale if you are applying for UG admissions and for graduate programs, a New York University GPA requirement of 3.5 or higher is there. 

Though the GPA only tells how academically inclined you are, but this university is also interested in the holistic student profile like extracurriculars, good essays and English language proficiency.

Getting into NYU from India is not as easy as the New York University acceptance rate is 7.7% as per the latest data released. International students are not only reviewed on their academic abilities, but also on strong essays, competitive GMAT or GRE scores, great extracurriculars, a creative portfolio, good LORs, and a really good answer to the question 'Why NYU'?
