Congratulations, there is no dress code for the college. You can come to college in casuals just make sure it's neat and good for college wear. Apart from that there is no issues about dress code. Bonus, you don't need to carry your ID card every time with you.

Every semester there will be 5-6 subjects and their labs. Each subject will carry some credit. Now, if one gets for example 85/100 in a subject then he gets 9 points in that subject. Suppose that subject had 3 credits then Credit points for that subject will be 9x3=27 points. This way all subjects points are calculated and then added. Let as suppose on adding all subjects one gets 200 points. And on adding all subject credits it comes around 22. Then dividing 200 by 22 will give you the CGPA and in this case it will be 9.09 CGPA. For 91-100 it is 10 points
for 81-90 it is 9 points
for 71-80 it is 8 points
for 61-70 it is 7 points
for 51-60 it is 6 points
for 41-50 it is 5 points
below 40 it is 2 points and fail.

Internal Exams are important for SGPA but they are not deciding factors for pass or fail. So, if a student fails in internals he/she can still pass the semester by scoring good in semester Exams and also submitting the assignments in time. Overall, the student has to score 40% to pass so it includes Internals + Sem Exams + Attendance + Assignments. So, if one got 5 marks in internals he/she has to score 35 more from Semesters and assignments.

The campus is the most unique thing about HIT-K. The college has a really nice and quite large campus and it is by far the biggest after JU. Also non other private colleges in Kolkata will offer you a campus as Heritage Institute of Technology. It includes 3 canteens, Common Rooms for Table Tennis and a Gym, Basketball court, cricket training nets and a large ground for Football and athletic events. There are several places to sit and talk too. There is good amount of greenery in the campus.

There is no problem if one misses the Internals only issue is that the marks of internals will not be added and the student has to solely pass from the semester Exams and also it will be difficult to score good marks in that subject. Other than that there is no issue. So, try not to miss the internals as they are the key to score good CGPA.

College life is good. There are several club activities happening every now and then. Academics are important but it is not the only part of this college. Fests were held each year pre Covid, hope it will be resumed this year. Apart from that you don't have to wear college ID everytime and there is no uniform so that's a cool thing. Seniors are really good and helpful and there is no ragging in the campus. Overall everyone is nice and helpful and you will find people sharing common interests and take part in those activities.

It depends on what branch you want to get admitted to. Also maybe you are asking for cutoff ranks rather than marks. For CSE the general cutoff in 2022 was around 3k rank and for Civil the cutoff was 57k. Now this is the highest and the lowest to get into this college and the trends will follow similar this year too. All the best for counselling and hope you get your desired college and branch.

In each branch, there are 60 students. Only in ECE and CSE there are 180 students in each. Several students will leave college after 1st year due to partial drop so more or less this is the strength. Boys to girl's ratio is obviously high what else can be expected from an engineering college.
