Being an Engineering graduate myself, having passed out from one of Tamil Nadu's top engineering college, i am sharing my experience and advice on how to choose the right college..
1.THE ULTIMATE PLAN :
What is the ultimate plan of the Student?
a.)whether to finish degree and get placed in a good company, or
b.)Whether to continue with higher studies ?? Or,
c.)Since u mentioned the student is a Girl, u re planning to get her married once she completes her degree ??
If she is looking for option a, then She has to choose a good college that really has excellent campus interview records.. And Companies visit only top colleges and recruit more numbers, compared to colleges that are behind in ranking.. So, if placement is the case, then u can go for numerous colleges in Chennai like ST.JOSEPH's , Satyabhama, SSN, Crescent or CEG..
And please do not prefer VIT,Vellore as the reputation of the college is bad due to the student culture.. I HAVE MYSELF SEEN GIRLS SMOKING INSIDE THE CAMPUS.. (But life is fun there). But i would not prefer this for Girls.. Where as ST.JOSEPH'S and Satyabhama are very strict colleges, where there are less chances for students to get spoiled.. if u are concerned about the safety and well being of her, go for These 2, as they have the right balance of Discipline and fun..the Fee for these 2 colleges are HIGH.. Around 1.2 lakh per year ! (Inc. Hostel).. And ST.JOSEPHS has the best food in ENTIRE TAMIL NADU ..
....CONT...

Now, IF she is looking for Option b, i.e higher studies, then U need to choose a college, that has a good reputation and excellent records.. Cos big universities in USA and UK, prefer colleges that are famous.. BITS,Manipal,Anna UNIV (CEG),SSN are good choices..
If u re planning to get her married ,then choose any college u like, as the Degree certificate will mention only the name of the University and not the COllege.. But Still, I Prefer that Girl children should work atleast for 2 years before their marriage,so that they can feel independent.. A girl shud never be always dependent on others..
I have attended many symposiums and visited every college u have mentioned above.. so i will just rank them based on ur criteria..
1.BITS - the best in the business.. Great educational value,Degree is valued all over the world..Good infra-structure..(No idea about the fees) and its a Good place to Study...
2.Manipal - Not as good as BITS, but its good enough.. but the Students are from various nations there, thus making it an international community..so there is no cultural balance..Though its good that students can get an exposure to the international side, chances are there that they might get spoiled too !
3.ANNA University (CEG/MIT & Top affiliated Colleges like SSN,ST.JOSEPHS,Crescent,SVCE etc). - Only the best can get here.. the standard is high..Educational value is good and the placement records are excellent.. Fees may vary, but Chose any of these and u can be peaceful.. The student will come out as a great Engineer, with a Job in Hand..
4.Shastra University - This is also one of the best in TN.. Its a Deemed University and its really good in all the factors..
5.SRM - Good University, but again cultural issues are high.. Students can have SO MUCH FUN there..which is not preferable !
6. VIT - There are 2 faces to VIT.. It is one of INDIA's best universities in case of education.. A VIT passed out will surel wither have a good job in hand, Or Drug addiction.. its that simple.. if the Students can really stay composed and concentrate only on Studies, VIT is a good place to be !

WHATEVER IT IS, JUST KEEP ONE THING IN MIND.. ENGINEERING COLLEGES NOT ONLY TEACH ENGINEERING, THEY ALSO TEACH VALUES.. THE PEOPLE WHO THE STUDENT MEETS THERE,WILL INFLUENCE THEM TO DO BETTER.. CHOOSING A GOOD COLLEGE IN CITY WILL HAVE STUDENTS FROM MANY PLACES, AND WE CAN DEVELOP OUR STANDARDS THERE.. CHOOSE A COLLEGE THAT NOT ONLY HAS PLACEMENT/EDUCATIONAL RECORD, BUT ALSO GOOD INFRASTRUCTURE.. (LIKE WORLD CLASS LIBRARY,COMMUNICATION DEVELOPMENT LABORATORY ETC)..I HAVE SEEN MANY STUDENTS STRUGGLE TO SPEAK PROPER ENGLISH DESPITE FINISHING ENGINEERING.. THAT'S BECAUSE THE STUDENTS THEY GREW UP WITH WERE NOT OF GOOD STANDARDS.. BEING WITH BETTER STUDENTS, MAKE US BETTER.. SO KEEP THAT IN MIND..
ALSO, ENGINEERING LIFE IS THE BEST PART OF YOUTH..THERE SHOULD BE EQUAL FUN IN LIFE TOO.. SO CHOOSE A COLLEGES THAT IS NOT REALLLLLLY STRICT (A COLLEGE IN TN CALLED "VEL's TECHNOLOGY" IS SOOO STRICT THAT THEY HAVE SEPERATE STAIRCASES FOR BOYS AND GIRLS.. SUCH COLLEGES ARE THE PLACES WHICH DEVELOP CRIMINALS.. SO AVOID SUCH COLLEGES..
THE FINAL WORD : THE MAIN CRITERIA FOR CHOOSING A GOOD ENGINEERING COLLEGE :
1.College Reputation. 2.Placement records. 3.Educational Value. 4.Infrastructure. 5.Facilities (Hostel & Food) and finally, 6.Student Culture & Standards.

Try to get admission in Govt. Engineering colleges in Kerala, its hard to get admission. They make top Indian Engineers in India. All colleges in India are behind these institution.

Most important, please check and confirm the affiliation and accreditation of the educational institute. They must be NAAC, UGC, AICTE accredited and ABET accreditation is an added advantage for reputation and quality of teaching. Avoid private enterprise promising fancy hostels & infrastructure but without accreditations without accreditation, GOVT of India will not attest educational certificates and without attestation degree is not recognized outside India.
