It’s the most expensive engineering university in India but the ROI is very low. The amount of investment you make to study at Manipal, it will take you minimum 6 years to make any profit out of it. Most companies look for recruiting the students from Government colleges because they are under the impression that most of the students in private engineering colleges get admission via donation or capitation fees and they cannot discriminate between the original good students and the rich fake ones.
