Find Your Ideal College Match with CollegeDekho

With 43.3 million student enrollment, India is home to over 54,000 higher education institutions. Out of the total enrollment, close to 79 per cent are pursuing undergraduate programmes, while 12 per cent are enrolled in postgraduate courses. Furthermore, roughly 8.5% are pursuing diploma courses, while a meagre 0.5 per cent is accounted for PhD enrollments.

Now, the path leading to college enrollment itself is fraught with challenges. Prospective students seek clarity to the numerous queries racing across the length and breadth of their head before shortlisting the best-fit course and college. From placements to college reputation, fee to faculty experience, labs to infrastructure, numerous factors count as crucial determinants before finalizing a higher educational institution.    

While there are over 54,000 colleges in India, the premium ones and the likes of IITs, NITs, IIITs, IIMs, NLUs, AIIMs and the PGIMERs offer just 1,25,000+ seats. No wonder these seats are grabbed by the A-graders. Besides these top-notch institutes, students often rely on ranking frameworks that classify the higher education institutes (HEIs) based on factors like quality of education, faculty, research opportunities and career assistance provided, to zero upon the colleges. The list of top-grade colleges is followed by the likes of IISc Bangalore, BITS Pilani, SRM University, VIT Vellore, central, state and some deemed to be universities. However, these colleges are just a handful, offering limited seats to students while the HEI universe is vast.
