The college has good faculty, infrastructure is good but the campus area is very small.

Overall performance of our college.

Placements: According to the college, there was 97 percent placement but we don't if that is the exact percentage. Seniors said that some Pearl pass out designers also come to take the interview. They don't provide salary as per expectation. Seniors are not happy with their placement. They want good placement.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. Completely air conditioned. All the classrooms and labs are maintained. Earlier, the food of the canteen was not of a good quality but now they have a variety and good quality food. Stationary is also good, sells goods at a reasonable price. Stairs need to be maintained and lift too. Should have cross ventilation. We have a think tank where we work.

Faculty: The teachers are good. They are very experienced. They also tell us about various trends and techniques. They are always there in any problem. We can freely speak our mind in front of them. We are not restricted to English language, we can also speak in Hindi.

Other: We don't have exams, we have assignments which we submit. According to submission and assignments, we are marked. We are given 2 more attempts if we could not clear in the first attempt. They keep our files casually and they get lost. They don't provide internship. We have to find them on our own. They just gave us an NOC.

Our college is extremely good, but it is a bit high on the fee.

Placements: The college provides 90% secured placement to all the students of FD course. The minimum salary package offered by the college was 3 LPA. All the top design houses and companies are in the placement chains like Manish Arora, Tarun Tahiliani, etc. Almost all the students got placements under top designers apart from the students that persuaded higher studies and owned startups. It was a great experience being part of Pearl Academy. Since we persuaded fashion designing, maximum students opted for pattern making and designing, whereas few students opted for merchandising as well.

Infrastructure: The campus has a building of 4 floors with all the courses on each floor. Walls had graffiti designs all over, and not even a single wall was plain or simple. All kinds of artwork were displayed on every corner and wall of the building. Furniture was also colourful.

Faculty: Faculty members of the FD course are most friendly and true mentors which anyone can ever get. They teach with the best way to explore your inner self and talent and how to enhance it in the best way. They teach you in the way to respect the value of art and how to get inspired from your surrounding.

Other: I have chosen this course because I have always been keen to know more about the fashion world. It has its own power to build a persons' character and identity. It makes you feel superior. This course taught me the right value of cloths and designed my right imagination into life.
