Conclusion
Colleges like Dartmouth College, Williams College, and Princeton University, which have an elite alumni background fall under the tier 1 category. They have international links, decent-level students, and all the required facilities. These are the best ones to consider. In India, these colleges are the network of IITs, NITs, BITs, and some other colleges. Major private research institutions like Yale, Johns Hopkins, and New York University fall under tier 1. But it is pretty challenging to get admission to such colleges. It would help if you worked hard to get admission to such colleges.
But while talking about tier 2 colleges such as VIT Pune, it is not that difficult to get admission. It is like enjoying all the facilities with a little hard work. These are the best for consideration as you are getting all the facilities which are not available in tier 2 colleges at the same time you need not have to worry about your marks and fees. Therefore, an average student can quickly get admission into these colleges. Even if you face any financial problems, you can easily take a loan as the fees are moderate. Hence, I suggest that although VIT Pune is a tier 2 college, it is also the best one can dream of.
