It is an absolutely fantastic and historical college. It is one of the best colleges.
Placements: The package in the college starts from Rs. 25,000 per month, depending upon the course we have applied for. Internship students are on the top level as the college is a really famous one. Placements here are also good, especially in the science courses.
Infrastructure: The college is very historic and the building is very old yet strong one. Classrooms are comparatively very big with wooden and iron benches. The hostel facilities are also good but it is a little costly. The mess is also good and there are 3 canteens in the college.
Faculty: Faculty members at Fergusson College are fabulous. They are really very good, very humble, and supportive. The course curriculum is very relevant and makes studying a lot more interesting including various activities. Semester exams are not that tough, and one can easily pass if studied well.
Other: I chose this course out of interest. The best thing about the course is we get to learn a lot about personality development, communication skills, etc. The college organises a lot of extracurricular activities and events. Fests here are superb. Scholarships are provided by the college and given to the student on time, and there is no compromise. The campus is usually very clean and green.

In short, students passed out from Fergusson College are settled in various placed in the country. They are working in various fields, and also got settled in abroad doing reputed jobs.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is well known to everyone. With the British infrastructure still prevalent, the campus is very silent and serene to be.

There is also a stationary shop on the campus for photocopy and lamination work.
Faculty: Faculty members in our college are well known. A maximum of two teachers are assigned for each subject. The duration of undergraduate courses is three years.

Good college with a food reputation .
Placements: I haven't experienced he placements of the college because I am still in my second year of the college. But according to the reports I think that the college has a pretty average name in giving placements because it's an art college and not meant for placements .
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is somewhat good and above average. The building is antique and has smart ai tools like smart board wifif and also a big library. Overall it had all the requirements and the necessities that are required in any college .
Faculty: The teachers that is the faculty of the college is also something that many people don't know about. I feel that their is still a scope of improvement in the current curriculum of the course. But overall the teachers are helpful and also very knowledgeable .
Other: The college has a good name and reputation.

This college helps us to grow our personality.
Placements: As this course is only for three years, so for better placements, it requires us to study further. Placements are not conducted only after graduation. But they provide the opportunity to study further and get into other reputed colleges all over the nation.
Infrastructure: It is an old college, Classrooms and library are in very bad condition, but they are improving it. Benches are also very old. Washrooms are also old, and not maintained at all as no one cleans it time to time which is inconvenient.
Faculty: The course curriculum isn't static, and it keeps changing with the requirement of the time. Faculty members are understanding and helps the students. They really care about every student.

If you want the best career in the English language, then choose this college.
Placements: FC is the top college in Maharashtra, so getting placed is pretty easy. You don't need much academic percentage compared to other college students as the college reputation is good enough. However, the college provides high-class education because there are highly experienced teachers. They are probably better than anywhere else.
Infrastructure: Our college has a historical infrastructure. All the buildings look like an old fort and Wadas in Pune. There is a huge ground in our college. The library, labs, and everything provided here is amazing. There is a Wi-Fi facility in the library. First aid box is available everywhere in our college.
Faculty: You would never see the faculty members who are like the faculty of our college. They are highly educated, highly experienced and are awarded as the best teachers. The course curriculum is really useful in today's generation. Considering the present competition, learning English is a must. Our course is the best and college is also the best.
Other: Our college organises some events every year. At the end of December, all events are conducted, and we need to organise, and juniors are supposed to participate.

    Hello Souhitya, The college is one of the best in Pune and practically it does not make much difference whether your degree is normal or honours. How you performed during the course is what matters most. So do not worry.
