Average but still better than other colleges.

Infrastructure: One thing I like about that my college is the infrastructure and sanitation. Despite the limited space, MSCW impressed with excellent infrastructure and sanitation facilities. The college has high standards in cleanliness and hygiene. The college provides Wi-Fi as well. And it has a beautiful library. It has an auditorium. And especially the canteen. The canteen has numerous options; I was kind of shocked at first. Overall, the limited space does not detract from the facilities provided. But yes...

Our college doesn't provide placements, and the infrastructure is not good.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. Our college is among the top-3 fine arts colleges in India, but the condition of our campus is not good. It's a fine art college, so the expenses for making it look good are high. Our library has numerous good books. Wi-Fi is provided, but the bandwidth is very low. There are no hostel facilities. The canteen serves a variety of foods, but the quantity is less. Medical facilities are not available. We have a basketball court at our college.

The classrooms are quite well-structured and properly built for different departments of the college. Wi-Fi and a canteen with decent food are available. But there are no hostel or medical facilities available. The college organizes a sports day once a year.

There are no placements and curricular activities.

Infrastructure: There's no college hostel and medical facilities. Sports are not available here, but sports day is organised once a year. Due to some reason, canteen is closed in our college. The quality of some food items served in the canteen is fine, while for some items, it is not good. There is a library where a lot of good books are available for students to study.

The college life is good with a great curriculum, but the rest of the things are not good.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is poor, but there is well-devised space to work. Every student can make space for a personal studio for him/herself. There are not even any basic facilities like a fan. There is sufficient light, but it's all by natural means. Sports and gaming facilities are provided. Food is nearly edible, but I won't prefer having it.

Even though I would my experience was not that good. But batchmates help you learn a lot.

Infrastructure: Spacious classrooms, department is okay, no Wi-Fi facility, mess is close most of the time, library is good. Water facility is well maintained and infrastructure is upgraded time to time. Teachers need to open up a bit more. Students feel afraid asking questions. Teachers should take an initiative and make us feel more open to ask the questions.
