This college is good at placement.

Placements: The college gives good placement opportunities. Around 80% of students get a great job offer, while 62% of students get internship offers at various companies. The highest package goes to 55 LPA, the lowest package offered is 4 LPA, and the average package is 8 LPA. L&T is the top recruiter of my college. The college is known for this type of placement offer, so this course in my college has a high demand in the market.

Infrastructure: The college has a beautiful campus. To enter the college, you strictly need a college ID card. Small breaks are given after each class. Sport facilities are available where you can play after college. The hostel rooms are very clean, and each room is shared by 4 to 5 students. The mess food is moderate to good.

Faculty: The faculty members are well-experienced in their specialized field. The teaching qualities are excellent. All the faculty members make students industry-ready through their teaching skills.

BBA LL.B. (Hons.) - Batch of 2025

Offered by Crescent School of Law (B.S.Abdur Rahman University)

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

I'm satisfied with everything, including the environment, facilities, and faculty members.

Placements: Each student of the batch has passed with a good percentage, above 60%. All students are passed out. The fee per semester is Rs. 75,000. Many students are placed in Sutherland and Accenture, and some students got an internship at the High Court of Madras. Some students are practicing in a law firm, and some of them are doing their Master's, or trying to write government exams. The roles offered in this course include practicing as an advocate, running a law firm on their own, and working as a legal advisor for companies, including in the business sector.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi facilities are available 24/7 inside the campus, including in the library and computer labs. For medical students, research labs are also available. Classrooms have AC, and the hostels also have both AC and normal rooms with separate buildings for boys and girls inside the campus. A clinic is available 24/7 inside the campus within walking distance, and they provide an ambulance too. The food is also good in the hostel, and they conduct dance events and sports events for hotel students.

Faculty: The faculty members are well-trained and qualified, with double degrees. They handle and teach students with care and full responsibility, and they behave friendly with students. There is no pressure to study, and there are no difficulties in semester exams.

Other: I want to become an advocate that's why I chose this course. Our campus's inside environment is also very good, with a clean and green environment. It gives peace to study, and they always conduct events for students education improvement, conduct expose and campus interviews too.

Students can get a degree from here but can't get skills.

Placements: Some students get placed, but many students do not get placed. They said to fill out forms for placements but most of the companies in the forms are not coming to hire. Most of the interview results are not coming. If some students get selected, then offer letters are not given.

Infrastructure: The library is good enough. There is no Wi-Fi. Labs are average, and classrooms are average. It puts boards everywhere as fully it is Wi-Fi enabled campus but that's not true. The atmosphere is green and good. There is no food. Labs are available with AC. The hostel food and hostel atmosphere are good enough. There is no proper sports guidance.

Faculty: Faculty members are average. Most of the teachers do not know what they teach. Some professors are very strong in teaching and good enough. I would rate only 3 out of 5 stars for the faculty members, curriculum, and exams. Here, exams are on a proper time. To prepare for exams, they conduct CAT continuous assessment tests 2 times per semester, and it makes it easy to prepare for semester exams.

Other: It is located in the main area near KCBT's new Bus stand opposite Vandalur Zoo. A lot of bus services are available 24x7.

It provided average placements in 2025. It has a great and lush green campus.

Placements: I am from the 2021-2025 batch. There are 3 divisions of class for the computer science. It has 195 students overall. The average percentage of students who got placed is around 65%. The lowest package is 2 LPA and the highest package is 9 LPA. Companies like CTS, Cognizant, and Accenture hire students. Roles like trainee and HR are offered here.

Infrastructure: There are no complaints about the infrastructure and food. Classrooms and area are well-maintained. Labs are great, and Wi-Fi is good. We get non-veg food for 3 days a week, and there are no complaints. There is a daily cleaning. Restrooms and toilets are good.

Faculty: Teachers are really well-trained and they are friendly to students. Teachers helped students in many ways. In exams, papers are not tough if we have listened to the class. Many students can clear the paper without any problems.

Other: I chose this course because my parents told me to, but still, it is good. I got to choose this course, for the upcoming era as computers and AI is everywhere. There can be some improvements in courses and teach some things deep as many courses teach only boundaries. The college offers many events over the 4 years. Different branches have their own event both tech and non-tech-related events. Monthly, there are fests in hostels.
