    The happiest environment to study.
    Placements: We did not require any help from the placement team for finding out internships because it was a busy city with enormous opportunities, and looking for candidates to work with them. Yet, colleges find a lot of impressive companies with the best package results like average package above 5 LPA to 8 LPA only.
    Infrastructure: It was a private institution that was established more than 50 years ago, still looks like a new one with frequent renovations carried out. Our college offered post-graduate and undergraduate courses in various specialisations like humanities, arts, and science.
    Faculty: Professors were highly exposed to the industrial sectors which should be useful for the students to grow and connect with industrial people and their updated technologies. Professors were the incharge of academic results, so they evaluated the papers more liberally to make them on the safe side.

    Overall, the experience is above average. Don't let advertisements fool us.
    Placements: We have around 55 students in our batch, and 42 students are placed with off-campus offers. In-campus placements are not that good, as very few students get internship opportunities. Most of the companies that offered internships are small to mid-level start-ups, with an average package of 4 LPA.
    Infrastructure: Labs are good, and the infrastructure is above average. It needs improvement in the overall infrastructure and quality of life inside the campus. It needs some more exposure to special interest groups like music and dance groups. Overall, the campus is above average.
    Faculty: Faculty members are good but need some improvement in the course structure. There is a need for some updates in the course subjects and to add some new technologies to enhance students' overall, performance in industry-based skills and learning. Overall, the course is above average.

    It is a top college with infrastructure, job placements, and students pursuing the MCA program.
    Placements: 90% of students successfully secured placements. Recruiters arrive to provide internship opportunities. Prominent recruiting companies include Wipro, IBM, and several others. Based on my observations, our college has a commendable placement record. The main roles offered are data analyst, software developer, etc. The training is specifically focused on software development, whether in commercial applications or systems.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is excellent. Living in the college hostel provides access to truly outstanding facilities. Wi-Fi, water, and classrooms equipped with projectors are available. Additionally, smart classrooms with smart boards and other amenities are offered. Rooms are very comfortable. Our library contains around 60,000 books. A well-maintained hostel building is situated on the college campus.
    Faculty: Teachers give their all to teach us everything. Staff members here are well-educated and friendly, which helps them elevate their teaching standards and assist students in grasping materials. They also promote education through cultural and social activities. If we have any questions or uncertainties, they are more than happy to help without any hassle.

    I suggest students never get admission based on photos and good placements, as it might be false.
    Placements: There is the worst placement scenario in the Presidency College because only 7 companies visited the community. Out of 270 students from the MCA course, 14 students got placed in 2025. It is better not to join Presidency College, Bangalore. The highest package offered is 7.5 LPA, and the average package offered for the MCA course is 6.4 LPA.
    Infrastructure: The campus is too small and the crowd is very high as there is no space for sitting alone. I don't know about hostels, but the food is average with no taste. Labs can accommodate 30 students in one lab, so they divide students into two batches.
    Faculty: If students get admission to the MCA in Presidency College, the semester starts late. They started in November, but they conducted exams on time. In around 1 month, they will take an exam. The MCA course is very underrated because BCA students study much more advanced material than MCA students.
    Other: If students have already taken admission, then they have to pay Rs. 50,000 in cash. They do not accept UPI or bank transfers. It might be a donation, but it is included in our fee structure.
