Hey all,

RTI PUBLIC LINK ;https://yourti.in/requests/mwikt7cq/

I went ahead and filed an RTI today to get the nitty-gritty on placement stats for colleges under JAB Delhi Counselling (DTU, NSUT, IIIT-D, IGDTUW, etc.). I’m after branch-wise data for undergrad, grad, and postgraduate programs for 2023-2024 and 2024-2025 (or whatever they’ve got so far this year).

Here’s what I’ve asked for:

• Enrollment numbers, students registered for placements, and how many got placed (all branch-wise).
• Placement percentages.
• Minimum, maximum, median, and average packages.
• Breakdown of packages (e.g., 5-10 LPA, 10-15 LPA, and so on).
• Number of students who went for higher studies.

I’ve requested it in Excel or PDF format, nice and organized by branch and program. Filed it with the JAC Delhi PIO—fingers crossed they don’t dodge it with a “not our job” reply or pass it around to individual colleges.

I’m super curious to see what comes back. Placement stats are always flaunted during admissions, but the real details? Hard to come by. If I get something solid, I’ll definitely post a summary here—could be a goldmine for anyone thinking about these colleges.

Anyone else done this before? How long did it take to get a response? I know it’s supposed to be 30 days, but I’ve heard mixed stories. Also, what do you reckon—will they actually cough up the data, or am I in for a wild goose chase? Let me know your thoughts!
