Absolutely talented students.
Placements: I am part of the first batch enrolled under the new system offering two separate B.A. and BBA degrees, both have different subjects, fee structures, and students cannot mix majors/minors across them. We are also pursuing an integrated Bachelors + honours degree. We can leave if we want to leave after getting a bachelors.
Infrastructure: The campus has good Wi-Fi connectivity. Some classrooms are air conditioned, while others are not. The library is well stocked with useful books. Hostels are good, offering four meals a day in the mess with both vegetarian and non vegetarian options. However, washing machines are not provided in hostels, so students need to manage laundry on their own.
Faculty: College offers the best curriculum with a perfect mix of theory and practical learning. The faculty is experienced and supportive. Admission is through the Symbiosis Entrance Test (SET), and the academic exposure is truly enriching and holistic. Semesters are not that difficult if you study regularly.

Learn by exploring new things and real-life practices.
Placements: This (2024-2028) is the first batch of this course. B.A. in mass media is a different course. This college has been providing since this year. Still, the course before these 2 different courses B.A. and BBA in media came to our college. It provides the same major minor courses but now it is separated into 2 different courses. The highest package till now is 10 LPA.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available 24X7 with perfect speed all over the campus and hostel. Library has different types of books. You can find books on many movies and famous directors, mass communications books, economics related, and also fictional books. Hostel has facilities like 4 times meals. Food is better than in other hostels. We have games like pool, carrom, chess, badminton, basketball, and table tennis.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. Teaching quality is also good. It gives practical knowledge and assignments to do. You need a CGPA to pass the year. Exams are not tough. If students study in class and make it regularly, it's easy to pass with good grades. But as it is a media college, you should know how to write. If you don't know how to do this, course also provides a subject to study how to write.

Really good placements and facilities inside college.
Placements: Journalist , Editor and Copywriter are the top roles offered in this course. Some of the top recruiting companies that offer placements to our college are The Glitch, NDTV, Times Now, Filtercopy, Zomato, SportsTiger and Indigo. A lot of internship opportunities are given to students as the relationship with the company are amazing.
Infrastructure: There were a lot of sports facilities in our college. A big ground along with other indoor facilities like TT board and a badminton court. Quality of food in mess and canteen was top-notch along with a lot of variety. Lot of food varieties from which one can choose.
Faculty: Pass percentage is around 40%. Examinations aren't that difficult. They are quite practical oriented and one can score well if they have a good understanding of the course and the subjects. Examinations are a good opportunity for people to reflect their learnings in the semester.
Other: There are a lot of fests. Rush, ITS, Madhya and Vaividhya allow people to showcase their talent and other skills.

I am satisfied with the faculty. It has good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: I am currently studying in this course, so I don't know much about the placements. Job roles depend on what specialisation a student takes up. For example, I will take an audio-visual production role in the next year. In this field roles like cinematographer, editor, director, scriptwriter, etc., are offered to the students. You could also work at media firms if you are not interested in working for the film industry. The previous year, more than half of the seniors got placed in companies like Deloitte.
Infrastructure: Facilities available in our college are good. Although, sometimes we do feel the need for more equipment. The college provides everything for students. Facilities like classrooms, library, labs and Wi-Fi are really good. The quality of the hostel is good as well. Food served is good, but not very great. Medical facilities are good.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are really helpful. They are qualified and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality, in my opinion, is good. I think this is a subjective question as everyone will naturally have different opinions on teachers. Some of the subjects taught are irrelevant.
Other: I have chosen this course because I always wanted to do film making, and this is a great choice as it helped me to become sure of my decision. It also exposed me to other interesting subjects. Practical application of the subjects is one of the best things in our college.

It is a great place for academics, but the infrastructure is average.
Placements: Almost 90% of our batch got placed. The highest salary package of 5.25 LPA and the average salary package of 3 LPA and the lowest salary package of 1.5 LPA are offered. Google, Leo Burnett, TBWA and Grey Advertising were some of the top companies which recruit students from our college. Advertising executive and associate content strategist were the top roles offered. Almost 100% of the students got internships in top advertising firms like MullenLowe Lintas, Ogilvy, etc.
Infrastructure: There are state of the art computer labs, top-notch audio-video materials, fully equipped library and specialised training centres for different courses. The mess and the canteen serve different cuisines of food. There are gym facility, sports facilities and 24x7 medical facilities.
Faculty: The teaching quality of the teachers was above average, although there were many guest lectures for different specialisations, which really help with learning. The course curriculum was very well structured with well-timed internships, which prepare students well for the industry.
