I completed my B.Tech from Karunya University, but I can tell you a bit about Sathyabama as well.
Sathyabama offers decent academics, good quality mess food, and good placements. But it is located very far away from the main city (Chennai). Moreover, its infrastructure is not up to the mark. Its biggest disadvantage is that students of the opposite gender are penalized for even interacting with each other. Boys and girls are separated right from the counseling process.
Karunya University is located in a beautiful and serene landscape, and surrounded by mountains on all sides. It has good infrastructure and quality education. Its placements are average. Its hostels are good, and the mess food is good as well. It has strict rules only for first years. It has a diverse student population, with students from other Indian states and countries as well. Hostel is mandatory for B.Techs, but not for some degrees.
It charges high fees, and some of its departments have poor placements. The rules are very strict about clean shaving. The faculty takes out personal grudges on students’ internal grades. Most of the hostels are located far away from the campus.
According to me, Anna University affiliated colleges are much more affordable for B.Tech studies. So you may consider them instead of these two universities.
The Management of Karunya University changes the dress code for girls frequently. It depends on their mood. Some days kurti and leggings are allowed while some days they are scolded for wearing tight leggings. They won’t even let you sit for class with such clothes.
Girls are expected to wear a Salwar Kameez or Churidar with a dupatta pinned at the shoulders. They also have to wear the university blazer on special occasions. They also have to wear a lab uniform in the laboratory classes and wear their ID cards all the time.
Hope this helps you!
The Management at Karunya University keeps changing. Every VC has their own opinions although they follow the same principles.
So it’s impossible to know what he expects from you. You have to be prepared for all scenarios.
The study time at Karunya University is from 8.30 pm to 10.30 pm on working days and 9.30 pm to 10.30 pm on holidays.
The study time may seem very long from 8:30 am till 5.20 pm but you will have many free hours in between. There might be no classes in the morning session or in the afternoon session some days. Moreover, the timetable varies from person to person depending on the subjects they have opted for.
Hope this helps you!
Karunya University is a Christian minority institution, but it treats everyone with the same respect. There is no partiality between the students of different religions. There are students from all over India so you can expect an extremely diverse experience.
Such multicultural exposure is very beneficial in the long run. Moreover, its serene location makes it a heaven for nature lovers.

Here are a few pros and cons of Karunya University that will let you decide if it’s worth
Pros
It’s one of the best places for nature lovers as it’s surrounded by beautiful nature and great climate.
Cons
I feel Karunya needs some changes and suggestions that would push the university to a better position.

Here are a few things every 1st year should keep in mind at Karunya University:
Hope you have a good time here.
Karunya University is certainly one of the most sought-after engineering colleges. It does have a religious environment although students aren’t forced to participate in any such activities. It has a very well-maintained Infrastructure with many experienced faculties, most of whom are P.hDs. They have MOAs signed with foreign universities.
Karunya has an IAESTE chapter on their campus that facilitates students to go abroad for internships. Karunya also has its own campus radio and TV channel that airs cricket and football matches.
Overall, you will get many opportunities to showcase your talents.
Karunya has a decent placement record. Most companies that visit Karunya are service-based like TCS, Tech Mahindra, Accenture, etc. They conduct mass recruiters and outsource the students for various projects. Hardly 10% of product-based companies come to Karunya. Recruiters consider Karunya students best for BPO-related jobs rather than development-related jobs. Hardly any students qualify for the technical test conducted by ELGI India.
Ultimately the service-based companies don't add any credibility to the placements. Although all students or the majority of the students get placed, it lacks offers from Product-based companies. So it serves quality over quantity.
Karunya University is a better option than Amrita University. It makes you a better individual not only academically but holistically as well. The daily assembly sessions make you motivated and feel good. Here is why you should choose Karunya University over Amrita University.
Overall, Karunya will offer better exposure and opportunities.
