Absolutely satisfied with my experience in MIC.
Placements: Around 70 to 80 percent of students who sit for placements get placed, while the rest usually opt for higher studies, family businesses, freelancing or start ups. The average package range between 4 to 6 LPA, with the highest packages going up to around 10 to 12 LPA in good years, especially for marketing, branding and corporate communication roles.
Infrastructure: Hostels are decent with regular cleaning, security and basic facilities. The mess food is average. Sometimes good, sometimes repetitive but there are many food options on and around campus. Medical facilities, sports grounds, gyms and student activity centers are easily accessible and well maintained.
Faculty: Exams are moderate in difficulty. If you attend classes, submit assignments and participate in projects, it is easy to pass and score well. The pass percentage is high, usually above 90 percent, but scoring very high requires consistent work and creativity. The faculty at MIC is knowledgeable and many teachers have industry experience in media, branding, journalism and marketing. Teaching is mostly practical, involving presentations, case studies, group projects and real world assignments rather than just theory. The curriculum is relevant for students who want to work in media, marketing, PR, corporate communication and branding.
Other: I chose MIC because it offers a rare mix of business, media, branding and communication rather than a purely theoretical BBA. The biggest strength of this course is how practical it is. Some subjects feel a bit repetitive, but overall the environment, peer group, Manipal campus life and networking opportunities make it worth it.

Kinda okay and kinda not okay.
Placements: Placements here are pretty average because there’s no support from the university. A few of our lecturers help with placements for some students, while the rest have to find jobs by themselves. The highest package that someone has received is around 9 LPA.
Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is average as well. Students get free Wi-Fi access, and there is a decent library. The classrooms are also decent, with projectors in every room. We have an HP lab and a Mac lab, but our department's sports facilities are quite weak.
Faculty: The teaching quality is great. We have some lecturers with industry experience, and they’re very approachable and friendly as well. You can even go on road trips with your lecturers. However, the curriculum isn’t very well designed; it’s average like that of any Indian college.

Review of Manipal Academy of Higher Education.
Placements: The alumni network of Manipal Institute is quite solid. We do get a bunch of internship and placement opportunities based on alumni recommendations, but one of the major recommendations is for IT sector companies like TCS, which offers internal communication internships and also gives a good stipend. At the end of the day, almost all students get placed primarily in IT, followed by FMCG and lastly, finance companies. Packages depend on the company; the highest is 10.4 LPA, the average package is 5.2 LPA and the lowest is 3.6 LPA. But getting a job in our core field is difficult.
Infrastructure: The institute is situated in a scenic location and is also close to a road, which is very useful. Classroom and hostel distance is greater; it is better to buy a bicycle for travel. There are many festivals organized in hostels; that's why day scholars can not enjoy that events. Our campus gives huge value to sports as it offers so many sports such as football, basketball cricket, etc. Our campus organizes tournaments every month, and we have a variety of clubs that help students study. Also, the college library has big digital boards, projectors, and classrooms with comfortable seating. Honestly, hostels are not affordable to middle-class students, but the food is tasty and hygienic.
Faculty: Our university is 7th in cleanliness and teaching. Teachers prove that they are very helpful; they have done research in subjects like media and literature. Teachers have in-depth knowledge about their subjects. The course structure is well planned, and they always make minor changes. All internal and external exams are done through the e-pad system so no one can cheat. Also, exams are so strict.
Other: Manipal is famous for events and activities; the crowd here includes students from all Indian states, and scholarships are based on merit and income.
