A college with good exposure but careless management that seems strict yet is not serious.

Placements: 40% were recruited, as many chose their family business. The average package was 3.5 LPA. There were no specific companies. Some were startups, while some were banks. 100% got internships. There were diverse roles in management. Mostly, executive roles were offered in marketing and operations.

Infrastructure: There were good facilities with air-conditioned classrooms along with smart boards. An office for the department was available. The canteen and hostel food were decent but not always good. A wide range of sports facilities was also available. The library had a lot of great books to discover.

Faculty: They were knowledgeable. Some were good teachers, while some were not. Some were highly experienced and took good care, while some did not. The course was relevant. Not everyone could pass easily. They had to retake exams. The pass percentage was 70%. Some papers were tough.

Good facilities and contacts.

Placements: At least 30-35 percent of students got placed and the package is pretty good like 3 LPA-7 LPA. Infosys is the top recruiting company and all students get internships in media companies. The college has a good name in public so even if we don't get placed in college we'll get a good job outside.

Infrastructure: Facilities like Wi-Fi, hi-tech max studio, green and blue screens studio, and FM are available. Studio, animation labs, and hostel facilities are good. The food is good and the college canteen is also good with online ordering. There are more than 3 grounds to practice and have peaceful places to rest.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. Teaching and the handling of students are good and it makes the students industry-ready. 35 percent is the pass percentage and semesters are pretty easy. Many industry-related people take guest lecturers so that was very helpful to get some outside exposure.

Other: I love media and cinema so I chose this course.

It offers a good college life with decent placements for commerce.

Placements: Around 55-60 percent of students from the commerce batch got placed through the college. The highest package I heard ranges from 5-6 LPA, and the average package ranges from 3-4 LPA. The lowest package ranges from 2-2.5 LPA. Mostly, audit firms, banks, and companies like TCS, Cognizant, and Accenture visit the college for placements. Half of the students got internships. Common roles offered are audit assistant, finance trainee, and business operations roles.

Infrastructure: Our classrooms are decent and have basic facilities. Wi-Fi is available, but it becomes slow during peak hours. The library is helpful for us and has good study space. The hostel is safe. The mess food is average, and the canteen gives a better variety. Sports and medical facilities are also available.

Faculty: Most teachers are helpful and explain topics clearly. But a few are strict with attendance and deadlines. The course curriculum is good and covers core topics, but we need extra courses or internships for better exposure in the industry. Exams are moderate in difficulty. The pass percentage is good if we keep up.

Other: I chose commerce at Loyola because Loyola has a good reputation. The best parts are the crown and campus life. The atmosphere is good. I should provide fast Wi-Fi facility and more placement drives focused on the core subject. Overall, the course gives decent exposure.
