According to a senior of mine who has graduated from NIT Raipur, the institute is better than most top colleges in Bangalore including VIT institutes.
Despite having a soft spot for NIT Raipur, she does not discourage candidates from trying their luck at any other university, including VITs. She, however, suggests that they should get acquainted for measuring progress after completion of the undergraduate degree.

Placements:
In the case of NIT Raipur, almost every candidate will get at least one job, in recent years many also bagged two jobs. The ones who have, get a package of 4-8 LPA for the first job, and a package of as much as 16-17 LPA for the second job. Candidates who do not get a second job also land a job with a package of 4-8 LPA.
Overall, it is safe to say that CSE from NIT Raipur will be a good option.
The Kalasalingam University hostel facilities are good. For boys, there are regular hostels and pg hostels. For girls, there are only regular hostels. Rooms have an occupancy of 2 to 4. There are a limited number of rooms with attached bathrooms.
Food offered in mess is average. You will get to choose between regular South Indian Food and North Indian food. Water is a major issue sometimes. There are even days when the whole campus runs out of water.
First of all, it is a new course offered by PES university however, the department is trying to have a new perspective of design for the students and faculty.
Program offered:
The faculty of design offered two design courses such as B.Des and M.Des (product design). There are three streams for B.Des, i.e. Product Design, Interior Design, Communication Design.
Course:
The course structure is similar to that of IIT IDC (design school) and is developed to cover all the relevant design subjects from many areas including arts, engineering, and sciences.
1st year of the B.Des and M.Des course is all about the introductory and conceptualized study which is common for all 3 streams.
The most important and more usable part of these two design programs is an industrial internship and design project thesis.
Admission:
The students are selected on the basis of the entrance examination (design aptitude test) followed by the personal interview conducted by the department of design and architecture.
More preference is given to the students who have UCEED scores.
The total course fee is around 13.21 lakhs for three of B.Des programs.
Currently, the total intake for the B.Des program is 120.
Placement:
Few of the companies visited the campus for placement to hire design students are ITC welcome group, Kingfisher airlines, landmark, and Oberoi.
The average salary package of about 3-4 LPA and the highest salary package of 8.5 lakhs per annum was offered to the students.
As Design is among the newest streams offered by PES University, the facilities and placements provided are still improving. As for if it will be worth it to pursue or not, you should be the one to decide that.
If you are getting the morning section, choose St. Xaviers. The institute has an amazing commerce department. It is one of the top commerce colleges in the country. The faculties and infrastructure are excellent. There are tonnes of extra-curricular activities to pick from.
The department has a good placement record. Each year around 90% of students get placed through the campus drive.
One of my friends was an alumnus of this institute, in the batch of Civil Engineering (2009-2013). He once told me about some facts which I have listed below so that the students could find this beneficial.
Thus, the most important thing is that never ask for any type of advice from the immediate senior students, as they especially give clueless guidance to confuse the juniors.

While a clear-cut answer to this question isn’t possible, here are some insights regarding ranks and admissions according to my friends who are currently studying there.
One of my friends is a final year student from LNCT pursuing B.Tech in IT. He secured a rank of 1,27,000 in 2017 but he wasn’t able to secure a seat in CSE Branch with that rank. Instead, he took a seat in IT in the 1st round itself. Yes, he didn’t wait for the 2nd or 3rd round. However, you can wait for at least the 3rd round to see if your chances increase for the CSE branch.
Secondly, it also depends on your quota. Most of the time it is quite impossible to secure a seat with such a rank without any quota. My friend who belonged to the unreserved category couldn’t get in even EC with a rank of 69,000.
In recent years the required cutoff for CSE at LNCT Bhopal was 83761.
At last, if you are looking forward to a bright future in CSE or IT, establish your skills in programming on your own. If you are dependent on your college for learning something such as programming, your chances of grabbing programming job profiles are less.
