It is really good. The infrastructure and facilities are good.
Placements: Almost everyone gets placed. The highest placement offered is Rs.55,000, the average is Rs.40,000, and the lowest is Rs.30,000. A student should secure at least 45% to get an internship in companies. Elphinstone provides a wide variety of opportunities in various courses for students.
Infrastructure: Labs, classrooms, and library have a vintage and nice look. There is a campus area where students can play or sit. It has good sports and game facilities. There is no canteen when I was in this college , but one is in the coming months or years.
Faculty: Faculty is good. The staff and teachers are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. This course is very good and sufficient for one to stand on their own. The semesters and exam patterns here are a bit harder than in other colleges. The pass percentage is 35%.

It has really good infrastructure. It is a heritage building in Mumbai.
Placements: Our college doesn't give placements, but now from the year 2024, they started some courses that they are promising to that course student to give placements in the best company. The courses are for students interested in AI, Cybersecurity, and Data Science.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good in the college, the college building is counted in heritage sites, and the hostels are good for out-of-Mumbai students it has fewer facilities than so many other hostels, but the hostel mess is not good as per the students staying there.
Faculty: The teachers were not much helpful, the office department is so annoying, they take so much time when we have to get something like a concession or some kind of certificate, but some teachers were the best in everything like teaching, doing masti, and semesters are quite hard to pass but it's good for ourselves.
Other: I think the faculty has to be better. Events and fests are the best in that area and surroundings, and the campus is the best.

The infrastructure is good, but the placements are average.
Placements: Around 30 to 50% of the students got placed. The average package offered in IT course is 3-4 LPA. Some companies like Infosys, Tata, etc., visit the college. All the companies provide internships of one year or 6 months.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good, but Wi-Fi is not available. Some labs are better, but some labs like chemistry lab and physics lab have to be maintained properly. Classrooms and library are better but no air-conditioning provided. The condition of our canteen is miserable.
Faculty: The teachers are qualified, but some are newcomers. Their teaching quality is good enough. The college is well-known for its IT course. This college doesn't have any connectivity issue as it is only 2 km away from the railway station. It is a very good college for Mumbaikars.
Other: This course is good for placements. The college conducts a fest called Maharashtra fest.

    Q:   Can students get selected at Elphinstone, Mumbai with 70-80 percentage in class 12th?
    A: 

    80% is a good score. In case you plan to get into a regular good college, the cut offs these days are higher. With 80% you might not get the course or college that you wish. Its high time, you start thinking about what education / career you get into.

    Generally, most universities or colleges require students to have a minimum of 50-60% in their Class 12 exams to be eligible for undergraduate programs. However, some universities or colleges may have different percentage requirements for different courses.

    But for EM it is very difficult to get into the college but try to get form any quota
