During my time in the presidency, I had a lot of fun in college with my friends.
Placements: During my pass-out, the placements were happening, but there was no guarantee that you would be placed. If you had a back or anything, they didn't even consider your existence, and they just said that you were not eligible. In this way, I didn't like the placement department.
Infrastructure: The hostel is quite good, but better than other hostels I have seen. However, the infrastructure could be better because the college campus is too small for the students, with around 3000 to 4000 students. Attending courses would be very helpful in your life, and they have extracurricular activities that will boost you.
Faculty: Being honest, faculty members are very good assets of the college who support the students in every way they can, and the faculty's explanation is awesome. Coming to exams, as it is an autonomous college, it provides value for your degree.
Other: I would like to say that if you are looking for a budget-friendly, good environment, and experienced faculty, I would suggest joining the college.

It is one of the best colleges in Bangalore in terms of studies.
Placements: In our college, the placement rate of BCA is 95%, and almost all students get offers from various companies. The highest package offered in BCA is 14 LPA. The average package is 4.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Amazon, Deloitte, Accenture, TCS, Wipro, SAP, etc. The college puts pressure on 3rd year for the internship. We have a special subject about internships in which we have to submit our overall analysis of our work and experience. Roles offered are many as BCA is a technical course so we can get many job roles.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college, labs, and classrooms are fully well-furnished. Our college has 10 computer labs and 2 libraries with Wi-Fi support. Classrooms are fully ventilated. The hostel is average but the quality of food is good. Sports facilities are awesome.
Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and they especially focus on our learning. The course curriculum of the BCA course is best and updated in the AI era. The college offers now specialisation in AI, ML, and data analytics. They make moderate papers. If we study, we will easily pass exams.
Other: I chose BCA because I am from a commerce background. I like coding so I got an opportunity that BCA is open for all commerce, PCB, PCMB, and arts, which anybody can do. The course curriculum should be upgraded. The Presidency College does not have campus life. The college infrastructure (building) is very small. If students want campus life then they should not come to this college. If students want to focus on their studies and want placements then this college is for them. It is one of the best colleges in Bangalore in terms of studies.

I suggest students never get admission based on photos and good placements, as it might be false.
Placements: There is the worst placement scenario in the Presidency College because only 7 companies visited the community. Out of 270 students from the MCA course, 14 students got placed in 2025. It is better not to join Presidency College, Bangalore. The highest package offered is 7.5 LPA, and the average package offered for the MCA course is 6.4 LPA.
Infrastructure: The campus is too small and the crowd is very high as there is no space for sitting alone. I don't know about hostels, but the food is average with no taste. Labs can accommodate 30 students in one lab, so they divide students into two batches.
Faculty: If students get admission to the MCA in Presidency College, the semester starts late. They started in November, but they conducted exams on time. In around 1 month, they will take an exam. The MCA course is very underrated because BCA students study much more advanced material than MCA students.
Other: If students have already taken admission, then they have to pay Rs. 50,000 in cash. They do not accept UPI or bank transfers. It might be a donation, but it is included in our fee structure.

The best college from my experience in Bangalore.
Placements: I did my internship at PSU. I didn't get any stipend, but the learning was immense. I got a gist of how an organization functions and what it takes to market its products in rural and urban areas. The placement department provided opportunities and news about various companies to students through email. Interested students could proceed with the information provided by mail. The top companies that visited the campus for placements were Wipro, TCS, Birla, KPMG, Amazon, Airtel, Jio, SAP, etc. The roles offered were sales manager, data analyst, HR, etc. The percentage of students who got placed was 70%–80%.
Infrastructure: The hostel staff was very kind and cooperative. The food provided was excellent and hygienic, with both non-veg and veg options. The hostel as per facilities, was worth the expenses. I was very satisfied with the hostel facilities and chose to be in the hostel instead of choosing a PG nearby.
Faculty: In every college, there were a few ultimate faculty and some average. In my college, almost all faculty members were Ph.D. holders and had ultimate experience in teaching, except a few. We had fun in college with our studies. In the ERP class, we got a chance to improve our skills like presentations, and they taught us how to crack interviews. There were 4 semesters, and each semester had exams at the end. The exam structure was 70 marks for written and 30 marks for college internals. The course had multiple subjects like international business, marketing, human resources, business ethics, and business analytics, with an option for specialization in the second year. I opted for specialization in marketing, and teachers had highly professional knowledge in providing different case studies.
