The verdict
Worth considering
Vel Tech checks key boxes for an AI/DS undergrad: NAAC ‘A’ grade, a Chennai tech-hub location, and a recruiter list that includes product companies & analytics firms (Amazon, Microsoft, Fractal). But with a ₹9L total fee against a ₹5L average CTC, the ROI needs a reality check—especially if you’re taking an education loan. The 40% data confidence is another nudge to do your own campus research before committing.
