The college gives you one of the best faculties, staff, and infrastructure. I believe that the students who graduate from this college will never walk without jobs. The college contains one of the best villages, Andarahalli.

#Dislike

If the majority is not interested in the project, they can take it as a subject.

I availed a caste scholarship for good scholarships which they promised to adjust in my semester fees yearly, but nothing of that sort was done. The accounts department of the college just ignored my complaint, not even addressing me properly.

I would say the hostel fees are really high in terms of the facilities provided.

So far, we have not received any bad comments and have not encountered any difficulties from the management.
