Why these colleges rank where they do
A NIRF score is the weighted sum of five parameters, each marked out of 100. Two colleges with similar totals
can be very different places to study, so it is worth reading across the row rather than only looking at the rank.

Green marks a score of 70 or above; red marks below 35. Perception is scored from a survey of academics, employers
and the public, so newer and regional institutions often score low there even when their teaching and outcomes are
strong — read a low Perception number with that in mind rather than as a verdict on the campus.

Colleges in the published rank-bands
Beyond the top 100, NIRF stops assigning individual ranks and publishes institutions alphabetically inside a
band. A college listed at 101–150 is not ranked 101; it is somewhere in that range, and NIRF does not say where.
No scores are released for these.

Present in 2024, absent in 2025
These Uttar Pradesh institutions appeared in the NIRF Engineering list in 2024 but not in 2025. That usually
means the institution did not participate this cycle rather than that standards fell — participation is voluntary.
A few may also have been renamed.

How to use this list
• Entrance exams. UPCET / JEE Main, depending on the college governs the Uttar Pradesh state quota. JEE Main is
used for NIT, IIIT and GFTI seats, and JEE Advanced for the IITs.

• A rank is not a ranking of your experience. NIRF measures the institution as a whole, not the individual branch,
such as CSE or ECE. An institution ranked lower overall may still be the stronger choice for the one you want.

• Participation is voluntary. A good college missing from this list may simply not have submitted data. Absence is
not evidence of poor quality.

• Bands hide detail. Inside 101–150 or 201–300 the colleges are listed alphabetically, so position in that list carries
no meaning at all.

• Check the year. These are the India Rankings 2025 figures, released September 2025. The 2026 edition is
expected later in 2026 and will supersede them.
