Don't take admission here if you want better college life. If you want a degree, then go for it.
Placements: 10% of students are placed. The lowest salary package offered is 1.5 LPA, and the highest salary package offered is 4 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Infosys and TCS. 20% of students got internships from our college. Internships provided by the college are of no use and not that much worthy. Instead of going with college internship, you can find a better one externally.
Infrastructure: Labs and library are top-notch, except there's always a network issue in the college. No Wi-Fi is provided. Medical facilities are average. Sports and games facilities are good. Mess and canteen food are below average. No non-veg is allowed inside the college, not even in the mess.
Faculty: Teachers are not that helpful, except few. The curriculum doesn't make students industry-ready. Exams are quite average. Semester exams can be quite tough as the papers are made by the university. So you need to study well for semester exams. More than 50% faculty members don't know the subject they are teaching.
Other: I chose this course just to have a professional degree. There should be more focus on practical work, except theoretical. Event and extracurricular activities are held once in a year.

I experienced the best at this college.
Placements: I am pursuing BCA and around 95% of students from my batch got placed in their dream company with a 2 LPA to 5 LPA package offered. The best companies come for placement like Wipro, Infosys, TCL, etc. They offered the best roles in IT sector and in my course, 100% of students got internships.
Infrastructure: I am using campus Wi-Fi regularly and I haven't faced any issues yet, and the library is so silent for study and fully air-conditioned. The hostel is good, but I face some issues in the hostel mess. The size of the hostel rooms is so good, and they provide all the equipment for sports.
Faculty: There are highly qualified teachers who give us proper guidance and help us make projects. College makes exam papers moderate, so that any student can score better. They provide regular classes to students, and at the end of our degree, they give us full guidance on how to get placed.
Other: I want to become a software engineer, so I chose this course and this college, which is offering me this course with the best faculty, and the director sir, helps me to receive my full scholarship.
