The college timing is a major plus point, as you get lots of time to explore and study beyond.

Placements: I'm not much sure about placements as I'm in first year. But I heard that the Deanery of Training and Placement works well. When you opt for a B.A. English, teaching is not the only way you can choose. There are various other jobs like content writing, communication, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is nice, but Wi-Fi doesn't work in most places. The library is a peaceful place, but lacks a book collection. The quality of food in the hostel is good, but as it repeats regularly, you'll get fed up soon because of the same taste. We have two canteens and one cafeteria. The cafeteria is good for breakfast and lunch, whereas the canteen is the best choice for snacks.

Faculty: The aided staff are qualified and knowledgeable. Semester exams are not that difficult if you study well, but sometimes you'll be confused about the marks. There are chances that you won't be satisfied with your marks even though you felt like you wrote well.

Other: I chose this course to become a professor of English. It is better if the NET and SET coaching are given starting from the first year itself, as it would be useful. Earlier events were nice, but as the principal changed, the college became strict in cultural events like dance. Cinema songs are not at all allowed.

A good college, but now it is strict compared to before.

Placements: Our college has a good placement opportunity but most students fail to use them. Top companies like Amazon, Veranda, and many other companies have recruited students from our college who have the ability to communicate in English. Many companies recruit students for content writing. Many students even completed NET and SET during their academic years.

Infrastructure: We have smart classes with projectors, we have a language lab for language training, calligraphy classes, life skills classes with physical training, and NMEC courses for extra learning. The college hostel is good and the food is not very good but non-vegetarian food is very tasty. They have different blocks for different departments, chapel is there on the campus. Gym facility is available on the college campus, there are two playgrounds, and hostel students are allowed to use playgrounds during their free time. Wi-Fi facilities are available in college

Faculty: Our faculty members are so excellent in their language and teaching, experienced teachers who engage us except some. Course curriculum is better even by learning our curriculum many students completed their competitive exams. There are no MCQS but there are other paragraph questions in exam.

Other: College management is good and many cultural and other programs are conducted. Prayer life is better in this college. Christian can shine in this college through prayers Hindus are also given importance.
