My review of this college.
Placements: Placement Opportunities were good after completing the course. A student can easily get placement in Mass media, new media, and internet communication, the print, broadcast, and digital media, TV/Radio, media services, and publishing houses. The companies that visited for recruitment were the best in their respective domains (Ad Agencies, PR firms, Corporates, Production Houses, Publishers, Channel, Research Firms). The average package offered was around 4 LPA. The college does have a placement cell for both jobs and internships sometimes we have to find jobs on our own. As a trainee, I didn't earn much in the internship but learned.
Infrastructure: The college has three hostels which accommodate almost 100 students. Both single and sharing rooms are available. The rooms are spacious and well-ventilated with all basic requirements.
Faculty: The faculty was really helpful and with vast experience. All the teachers used to provide personal attention and clarify each and every doubt that the students had, and the faculty is also very talented and professional. The faculty is also nice, and there is a lot of exposure for children to learn and make themselves better. The exam structure is fine. They have exams every semester. There are 4 semesters in 2 years. The exams are not so difficult. But it can get more practical and not so theory-based because, at the end, practical matters.

Review of Indian Institute of Mass Communication, New Delhi.
Placements: There are a lot of options for doing our desired jobs in various companies like Blue Lotus Communications, Nielsen India, Interconnect News and ITV Network in multiple positions. The packages are so appreciative, which would start from 3.4 LPA.
Faculty: Teachers are so optimistic and highly graded with good experience. Their teaching quality really means their experience of teaching. They are too strict and sometimes behave impolitely. I am okay with the teaching quality of them, but not with their other activities.
Other: The college sets some motto and principles in maintaining the college with good fame. So they will not allow the students to participate in any extracurricular activities often. If they allows us to do something it's only under the proper guidance of teachers.

My review of this college.
Placements: The placements were good. Students were eligible for placements after their second semester. The highest package offered to a student was 36 LPA, and the average was 7 LPA. Almost 50%–70% of students got placed. Companies like ALT Balaji, BBC, Wavemaker, Social Kinnet, Lowe Lintas, Eggfirst, FCB-ULKA, FruitBowl, TBWA, Hindustan Times, Epic, Ogilvy & Mather, Contiloe Entertainment, Vessel Vision, and Optimystix. I planned to do CPA after my degree as I looked forward to getting a good-paying and reputed job.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities were awesome and most of the time remained clean. The food was fine. Food also depended on the contractor. There were some rules and regulations to be followed, which were to ensure girls' security. The area in which the college was located was safe.
Faculty: Our faculty was exceptional, comprising learned, enthusiastic, and dedicated individuals who excelled in teaching and mentoring. Approachable, available, and cooperative. They provided expert guidance and support to ensure student success. The curriculum of the course was really effective in the sense that it covered many diverse areas that fell under the umbrella of journalism. Although our curriculum included major assignments like producing TV documentaries and radio documentaries, we were not given good guidance to complete the process. Mostly, we had to figure out everything from script writing to video editing on our own. I like the exam structure and the way they took assignments on time. The assignments were very creative and gave a practical experience of the subject. I learned a lot from the college curriculum. Every subject was very well planned and taught to students.
