Amity School of Communication Reviews (Showing 5 of 71 reviews)
Placements: I haven't heard much about the placements. Though there is a lot of talent at ASCO, I have heard of few students getting placed in corporate media houses and advertising firms. Few, on the other hand, opened their own studios. About 25% of the students get placed at Amity.
Infrastructure: The facilities at ASCO are world-class. We have an amazing studio which is one of its kind. We have seen and operated almost all the technical equipment used in this industry today. We have also got exposure to Amity Radio. Spo...
Placements: Amity is one of the best universities in the world, and it is number 1 in India. Our college said that it provides almost 99% placements, and they provided it to me. Now, I am working with Amazon Prime Video and have made a lot of web series.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is quite good and friendly. Some of my friends used to stay in the hostel, and they say that the hostel is super friendly, neat and clean. A lot of things are provided by the university, so it is good.
Placements: I pursued filmmaking. The placements were quite good. I got placed in Amazon Prime and Balaji Films. So from my experience, the placements are good. I would genuinely recommend others to take admission here for the best placements.
Infrastructure: I really liked the infrastructure because it has good studios, and those studios were quite big and perfect for my course. I used to love to see new things which our college used to organise in different sectors. For now, it is the best.
Placements: Placements were very poor in our college. The value of the fee paid was not worth it. Students got internships and jobs but did not get good salary packages. As we were actually freshers, we were offered salary packages of around 2 LPA to 2.5 LPA, even for the masters course. I am not satisfied with the placements provided by our college. COVID-19 pandemic also affected jobs.
Infrastructure: Amity University has a very good infrastructure. All facilities are up to the mark like air-conditioned classrooms, Wi-Fi,...
Placements: Roles offered in our course are a media reporter, radio jockey, filmmaker, editor, journalist and marketing manager. Many students who enrolled in our college also got scholarships and went abroad to study. Our college even provided study abroad programs for students who want to go abroad for higher education.
Infrastructure: The quality of the food served is good, and also there are many food options in the canteen area. Medical facilities are also very good, and the sports area is huge. The library is the best...
