Read this before you come to EFLU.
Placements: There is a really strict curriculum regarding placements in EFLU. You have to be really diligent with the professors of your course and nearly 60 percent of the students are fortunate enough to get decent job placements set by our college. As far as I can tell, the salary packages are good.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are really good. The library is awesome having tonnes of books available. It is really fascinating to have such a large library in your own college. I personally don’t find the labs that interesting but they are good. The Wi-Fi is not good and is really slow.
Faculty: The curriculum and the faculty is really decent here, it’s neither too good nor too bad. They are just there to help you sort out your stuff and nothing more than that. They won’t help you in any other way no matter what it is. Never rely on the faculty members here.
Other: The course is decent. The campus life is good enough and the festivities are really good here.

It's a good University of you only plan to focus on studying .
Placements: Multiple companies come, and almost everyone who enrolled for it got placed. Companies like Amazon and many others came for campus placement. Internships are a must in your 2nd year, as you get accredited points based on them. The highest package was about 8-9 LPA. The average package is 3-4 LPA in this University.
Infrastructure: There are 4 buildings where classes are held, and every class has a projector. There is also a library and a reading room, which are open 24x7 for students. The canteen, health centre, Apollo shop, and grocery shop are all available on campus. The hostel facility is provided to people coming from other states, and the fees for hostel rooms are around 250-300 per month. The mess fee is different and depends on how many days you eat in the mess. The average mess fee is around 3k.
Faculty: There is one native teacher for all their respective departments. The teachers are all qualified and have real-world experience in their departments. The semester exams are conducted twice, with 3 internal exams before the mid-term and 3 internal exams before the end-semester exam. You have to pass 2 internals to be eligible to give the end-semester examination and have the admit card issued.
Other: I chose this university as it is a central government university because it has foreign language departments. We don't only learn about the languages but also about the culture and the people.

Our college has good infrastructure.
Placements: The placement cell is not much good. Many companies visit our college to recruit students. They won't offer satisfactory salary packages. If you are planning to learn a foreign language, you don't need to be much worried about placements.

It has a small but a beautiful campus and all the students and teachers are of a friendly nature.
Placements: Mostly all students got placed in every course. But many students decide to do M.A. The average package is INR 4LPA. The top most companies come like Amazon. This university has its own placement cell. It has a small but a beautiful campus and a very peaceful environment.
Infrastructure: There are two buildings for foreign language course. An old one and a new one. There are two hostels for men and three for women. Basheer hostel is for men. There is a mess in our hostel and mess fees ranges between INR 3000 to 3500. There is a canteen and for sports there is a newly open sports complex. There is a health center also but the service is not so good.
Faculty: All the teachers are Ph.D. holders. They are very helpful and knowledgeable. There will be three internal exams from which the best two would be considered and then last sem exam. The ratio of internal exams and end sem exams is 40 and 60 and the exams are difficult.

A great place for learning, not such a great place for making friends.
Placements: Since the course is relatively new and the first batch of students is yet to pass out. But the professors and administration are working towards providing them with the best possible placements. Keeping in mind the recent visit of an official from the KCC the chances look hopeful.
Infrastructure: The college has great infrastructure and a library that provides for not only English language learners but also foreign language learners. It has a vast collection of books for language learners ranging from beginner to highly advanced levels. The hostel facility is really good in terms of not only maintenance but also hygiene.
Faculty: The course is well designed to help students easily learn the language. Not only do the professors maintain a steady pace, they make sure to give each student individual attention and take care to make sure all have learnt and understood the topic before moving on. The curriculum not only keeps in mind students who will appear for language proficiency tests but also those who plan on entering the corporate world.
Other: Every campus will have good and bad people. I have not been the most fortunate in making friends here but I hope other people have a better campus life then I do.
