Completely satisfied with studies, but not about entertainment.

Infrastructure: It is a wonderful college when it comes to labs and a library with a very good infrastructure, and there will be 24/7 availability of Wi-Fi. When it comes to the hostel, we were triple sharing, so it will be somewhat uncomfortable. The quality of food will be good, and sports are compulsory on the campus.

One of the best decisions you can take.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available for first-year students, but it is not available or is poor. The bathrooms are clean, but we have to triple share a single room. Mess food is as expected. Nothing out of the ordinary is manageable, but since there are four messes in IIITH. There are options for everyone. Jains included.

Sports are mandatory for the first 4 semesters for all branches.
