It has garden, sports space, dancing space, gym, hostel, mess, etc. Really nice.

Infrastructure: Food is great, veg food has many varieties you get a lot of space to sit and there are several canteens to eat so no problem if public is there. And it really great because there are many options to eat inside of the college. They apply GST kn students which they should not because we are students why taking from us .

I study in Somaiya and we have the best of renowned and dedicated faculty. The whole curriculum is designed to provide flexibility to students to choose among interdisciplinary subjects as per one’s personal interests and choices. The campus provides an awesome range of facilities and infrastructure for sports and fitness, on par with the best in the world, a meagre fee as the institute is government run.

Overall, it is a good college to study in.

Infrastructure: The library is good here. There is quite a number of books in the library for a variety of subjects ranging right from school textbooks to compendiums. There are books on the teaching of commerce, mathematics, science, psychology, sociology, history, geography and English language. There are also Hindi translated versions of some important books. There is a water cooler facility, and the toilets are decent enough. There are printers, but students are not allowed to use them. Our classroom is a m...

Somaiya, the dream of every student.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the Somaiya campus is highly developed. The Somaiya is occupied in around 60 acres. The whole campus has free Wi-Fi for the student. In SK Somaiya classrooms are good, but in SJ Somaiya, the classrooms are very dull and so facilitate. There is a separate department for sports in Somaiya. And many events organized every year. There are 4-5 canteens in the campus. The food and staff are very delicious and good quality. I haven't face any infrastructure related issues until no...
