Bachelor of Science in Computer Science - Batch of 2026

It is a very friendly and encouraging environment.
Tips: My college experience so far has been up to the mark. I have gained a lot of exposure and expertise in my field as well. The environment and people are very helpful and considerate so you don't have much to worry about. Take your time and don't feel the pressure to commit to things you initially thought you'd want long term.

Unique, valuable with lots of college activities and events.
Tips: If you are not from an international board then you will need to understand certain significant aspects of academics such as how to write academic reports, avoid plagiarism, and how citations work. These would take a minute to grasp. Other than that, dedicate your first year to campus clubs and activities and explore different events.
