The college has excellent faculty members but absolutely disappointed with the poor management.
Placements: The placement percentage of students in B.A. is very low. Rarely does any top company visits the campus for placement purposes. Students who are seeking good placement should not come to Elphinstone. The college has a tie-up with internshala. So, students are asked to register there for good internship opportunities.
Infrastructure: Elphinstone, being a heritage college, has a good infrastructure facility. But the classrooms are non-air-conditioned. The library is filled with an abundance of books and has a nice sitting space. Quality of the girls' mess food is above average and the canteen food is acceptable as well.
Faculty: Faculty members are good and teachers are quite helpful in our college. Students are given exposure and opportunities in the scholastic area. Teachers focus more on practical knowledge compared to theoretical. Semester exams are of average level and the pass percentage of students are approximately 96%.
