It is good for students in government exams, but not for those who want to earn by skills in private

Placements: The placement rate is really poor at the University of Allahabad. The top recruiters are TCS and two other companies for us M.Com students. Only one girl was selected by the company in our batch after the online interview. The salary that was paid was around Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 30,000 in Gurgaon.

Honest and only facts, no bias.

Placements: The placement is very bad here because of mismanagement. You can't get a chance to know if companies are coming or what the process is nothing. I think not a single person got an internship from this University. If you are a topper and score 100 out of 100, then you get a chance to get a job.

Extremely happy with the faculty, facilities, and fests which are also affordable.

Placements: In terms of placement the college is not that good but they have many activities that would eventually improve your skills. The placement cell is not that good. If you are trying to take admission for college placement I suggest you not.

Review of Allahabad University.

Placements: 30-40% of students got placed in my course. Other students opt for higher studies and go for a master's. The lowest package offered is 1.5 LPA, and the highest package offered is 3 LPA. Many top recruiting companies hire students from this college. Top roles offered are assisting in a news channel. Majorly, students get internships here.

It has safe and supportive environment for girls.

Placements: Placements in my course are limited, and only some of the students got placed through campus drives, not everyone. Most offers are for entry-level roles in sales and marketing. The average package is around Rs 2.5 LPA, with the highest going up to about Rs 5 LPA, but in very rare cases. Very few well-known companies visited the campus, so many students preferred to look for off-campus opportunities or pursue higher studies like CA, ACCA, MBA, etc. Internship opportunities are available, but stud...
