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.

Experienced faculty, amazing facilities.
Placements: Almost 75-80% people are placed, with the highest of 9-10 LPA and an average of 4-5 LPA. Many media houses, like Frizzon, Viacom, Ogilvy, Zomato, and many more, visit for placements. Companies that come for internships also come with placement opportunities and PPO by the mid of the last semester of your academic year.
Infrastructure: The college campus is comparatively small, but the equipment provided is really good—studio floor, sound lab, photography lab, audiography room, recording room, green screen room, with professional cameras, mics, MAC OS PCs, everything! The hostel is great for living, with beautiful rooms, personal attached neat washrooms, and all facilities provided. The food is average in the mess and canteen. The hostel also has a pool table, TT table, basketball court, and a medical room facility as well.
Faculty: Teachers are pretty good and experienced, with many coming from the industry with personal experience, helping us learn to face real-life situations. Directors and screenwriters come to take guest lectures, and the teaching is amazing, giving a lot of reality checks about the field. The course curriculum is good and makes students industry-ready with a lot of prior experience through assignments. The college focuses more on internals than exams, which is actually good as the assignments are broader and give better learning and experience than exams.
Other: The course gave me a lot of experience through assignments on making short films, which is really helpful in the AV field and curriculum.

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.

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.

SCMC Life or say Army School.
Placements: Placements were for all the students but many student went for higher studies and other opted placement. They didn't gave much option to the students. Very limited companies were there in placement. In a media field a person doesn't get much stipend in beginning but later will experience salary increases on the basis of the experience.
Infrastructure: Good facilities of labs, classroom but not a good space of library. Infrastructure is small as compared to the strength of the students. Low facilities of the area. There were only one lift to reach to the college floor. And there were 150 students in three different batches.
Faculty: Teacher were qualified but not helpful. Faculty ratio was so less compared to the student. They were not supporting and the college was like an army school. Director is not much supporting for weak students. Detention as an deduction of attendance was given as punishment to students.

The students will teach you more than the faculty.
Placements: I didn't choose to sit for placement because of the rules it implies. I vividly remember that placement for batch 2016 was pretty decent since they got placed on the web as it was booming at that time. Even we have had incoming opportunities from the web, but it is difficult to get into films. It is more of a profession than a job. Though the placement is not that great, my seniors applied externally and are working in advertising, web, newspapers and some even in films.
Infrastructure: So we have two floors assigned to our college in a building that we share with Symbiosis Institute of Design. We do have editing suites with Macs, shooting rooms and audio equipment but they could have been taught better. We have a lot of screenings of good films and Planet Earth. In that respect, the first year is the best.
Faculty: The faculty is quite good in the first year. Especially the history teacher will make you feel that your fees had been put up to good use. The first year is foundation, which is the same for everybody. In the second year, we are divided into two groups like mass communication and communication management. In the third year, the mass communication is further divided between AV and journalism. The communication management is divided into advertising and public relations.
Other: We have a lecture and demonstration almost every month. Wherein we have classical dancers, musicians perform and interact with us. There is an event called Anukram, which has people from industry come in and guide us. There is a cultural event- Vaividhya and a literary event- Madhya.
