It is a good and worthy college for both personal and academic growth.

Placements: Placements are average and mainly depend on students’ individual skills, performance, and internships. Around 50–60% of students secure placements and internships. The highest package offered is around 6–7 LPA, while the average is 3–4 LPA. Recruiting companies are popular, but as I am not aware of the companies, I cannot specify them.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is spacious, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. It has a pond-like area where students can get some fresh air and relax. Classrooms are good, but a few classrooms still need some improvement. Library is very nice. It is well-stocked with all types of books and journals. Free Wi-Fi is available, as well as a canteen.

Faculty: Faculty members are highly qualified. They are knowledgeable and supportive. Most teachers are friendly. They explain concepts clearly, and encourage critical thinking and further discussion. Semester examinations are strictly conducted. With consistent internal assessment and regular attendance, exams require serious preparation and academic discipline.

Other: Campus crowd is diverse. They are disciplined and academically focused. Students are from various backgrounds. It creates an open and engaging learning environment. Campus life is balanced with cultural events, seminars, and academic activities.

College is excellent in all aspects except placement.

Placements: Actually we haven't received any placement offers till now so can't say anything about placement. I can't say anything about the highest the lowest average package offer. I heard from my seniors that around 50 percent students got internship but I don't know about the companies and top roles.

Infrastructure: We have all necessary facilities in our college. In comparison to any other college, our college infrastructure is really good. We have availability of Wi-Fi in our college. In the lab we have all types of required materials and classrooms are clean and hygienic. Library facilities are also there. Hostel facilities, quality of food are excellent also the behaviour of the mess and canteen staffs are good. Medical, sports and games facilities are also good.

Faculty: To be honest teaches are really helpful and qualified and knowledgeable. They are very friendly to students. Teaching qualities are excellent and updated curriculum is nice. This will help us to get job as soon as early with this academic teaching. Semester exams are really difficult and pass percentage is around 30.

Other: I'm studying B.A. hons in English . I love to read novels, poems, short stories, write paragraphs that's why I chose it and it's the best thing about my course. I wish that I could change the time duration of the semester in college. All kind of activities are done in our college. Events, Fest, and kind of cultural programs are also well organized in our college. There is a system of scholarship with good amount in our college and I get it every year which helps me in my studies.

A great college to build a career base.

Placements: When I joined the Honours course noticed there were quiet a handful of high school pass outs. The best thing in our college is the package is same for all. No price difference for anyone. There's equality maintained. We don't have placements for B.A. courses. Which is a drawback. English major is a versatile course. One can choose to do anything they wish with the degree.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are airy and great! The sitting arrangements are decent. Can't say much about the hostel as I wasn't staying in it. But I heard the food quality is good. The hostels are regularly cleaned which is a great thing. Love the ambience and view.

Faculty: The professors were great and helpful. I am thankful we had an experience to be their students. The teaching quality was more than enough. The course makes the base for the students to grow and emphasize upon. The semester exams are not that difficult if one studies properly.

I am quite satisfied with my college.

Placements: More than 50% of students were placed in my college. There was no highest or lowest package, and the entire course fee was Rs. 10,000. There were very few companies. Only 10% got internships and jobs in different companies, but I did not know the names of those companies. There were no specific roles offered.

Infrastructure: Our classroom was very clean and free of garbage. It was maintained daily by workers. There was no Wi-Fi in our classroom. But that was not a problem as we all had internet connections. The library was good, especially teachers. Overall, the quality was average. Sports, games, and the canteen were also good, but hygiene needed to be maintained.

Faculty: Teachers were really helpful except for a few. Teaching quality was average. Semester exams were really difficult. If someone did not go to college, he or she became an enemy in the teachers’ eyes. This was the worst thing I experienced at my college.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to study English. As it was one of my favorite subjects. The best thing about it was that it helped me a lot to improve my English fluency. There were a few things that could be improved. Our college was quite famous for fests because every year it organized a grand fest on the campus. Many students from other colleges also came.
