Infrastructure: The hostel facility is really great, but the negative point is that the point system for deciding the hostel criteria they have extra 5 points for seniority, i.e., 1st year students are behind the seniors, so it's really hard to get a hostel as a 1st year student.

Nice faculty, good syllabus, and beautiful campus as well.

Infrastructure: Very beautiful, soothing, green, and peaceful campus, anyone would really love to be here. Talking about technical things, I'd say it has everything a good educational institute would need, reasonable canteens, non-vegetarian and vegetarian food both being available in hostel mess and canteen, big libraries, and each faculty has its own library too.

College is good historically.

Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi available at your college but its strength is not good, and the classrooms are average. Some classes have AC and some do not. Hostel is difficult to get you can only get it with a source and hostel seats are very limited, so it is more likely that you won't be allotted a hostel.

The college has a good infrastructure and facilities, but the placement is now declining.

Infrastructure: The university is good, but the facilities of engineering are not so good. The main canteen is not functioning. The first year is a total waste of time; only academic studies are done in the first year. The probability of getting a hostel is negligible. You need to have a strong source to get hostel accommodation.

It is the best college in terms of ROI.

Infrastructure: Jamia offers a vibe we won't find elsewhere, but the infrastructure is a mixed bag. For VLSI, labs are functional but feel outdated. We will often find ourselves wishing for new kits. Hostels are a survival with trial-cracked walls and vintage fans, though the brotherhood makes it bearable.

Jamia Millia Islamia is overall a very good college according to a very High ROI.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of Jamia Millia Islamia is very old because the buildings were made in the 90s which makes them look very old. The hostel facilities are not good because everyone gets a hostel. The classroom is very well-maintained. The sports facilities are also good.

Absolutely satisfied with faculty and teaching environment here.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good but needs to be improved because the courses are increasing and are now almost double what they were before. It was made for 5 branches but now it has several specialisation branches but the infrastructure remains the same so it's obvious that there will be some problems.

Overall, my college is the best, very affordable in Delhi NCR, and the placements are also good.

Infrastructure: All the facilities are here. Mind-blowing hostels are like apartments, and every facility is there. Unfortunately, there are very limited seats in the hostel. They charge a 200 fee for hostel registration. After this, they conduct an interview, and according to the interview and points based on the distance of the college to your home, and 12 percent of your percentage above 75, you will get 20 points. There are criteria for points.

It's a beautiful campus and a well-reputed university, and the teaching staff is great.

Infrastructure: The hostel accommodation began by December, while I secured a seat in August itself. So it got a little difficult for me. The room is nice, spacious with a 3 seater, food was okay, we used to get veg and non-veg both. The quality was not great but decent. Seats are very much limited, this is one issue. The hostel is 1.5 km away from the college. Hostel fee is INR 48,000 per year. They need improvement in terms of class infrastructure, smart boards and projects are needed.
