Before the corona it's a best college among Chennai.

Infrastructure: No extra-curricular activities are conducted, only reading and preparing for exams. In this hostel food quality and quantity are not satisfied. Medical facilities are not provided. Sports and games are satisfying and good sports teachers. The hostel has very damaged doors and cupboards.

The worst college, faculty, and placements.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not allowed. I don't have many facilities in class, labs, and hostel. The quality of the food is the worst. Sports facilities are developing. Weekly once the sports period has been conducted but the period is taken by Maths sir. Canteen facilities are so expensive compared to roadside shops. Mess foods are disgusting to eat.

Actually, this college is best for middle-class people and toppers.

Infrastructure: Actually, the food is too waste. It's not proper hostel food, it's too bad. Chicken is served only 2 times per week, that too limited. Mostly, when the food is nice, that will be limited, and when the food is waste, that will be more. There is no hygiene, and the food workers won't use proper things to serve food.

College is very good, some think can better, food and hostel are average with Wi-Fi facility.

Infrastructure: We have auditoriums and seminar halls for cultural programs, guest lectures, and workshops.

Campuses are secured with CCTV surveillance and have 24X7 security personnel. Medical facilities, counseling centers, and career guidance cell are available to ensure student well-being. Transport services, banking facilities, and eco-friendly initiatives like rainwater...

Strong academics and a vibrant campus life, but there’s room for more industrial exposure.

Infrastructure: The department offers modern classrooms, well-equipped labs, a library, and average speed Wi-Fi. Facilities include clean rooms, hygienic mess providing diverse food options along with access to medical care. Additionally, there are excellent sports facilities and 24/7 security available.

Teaching is good; the placement center is effective.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is good, but the inside of the classrooms is not that great; they could be more comfortable. We have a canteen, a small juice shop, and a xerox shop on campus. There is a large open space, and the campus is well-guarded with many trees. The hostel is also available.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the lack of placement opportunities, poor mess and bus facilities.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is not available for students, and lab access is limited. Classrooms are good but often hot. The library is very good, but the hostel and mess food are not satisfactory. Medical facilities are unavailable, and sports and games are occasionally canceled due to sports day programs.
