It is an average college in terms of faculty, students, fees, and placements.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is overall good for the college and hostel. But it has all old buildings and old structures. There is a long distance between all the departments and the main block. It is a bit difficult to find exam rooms allotted for series and semester exams. The labs, classrooms, library, etc., are good, and Wi-Fi is also available. The hostel is also nice. There are mainly 5 hostels. There are 2 hostels separately for first-year boys outside the campus, and other-year boys have 2 hostels...

A great college if you would wanna be better.

Infrastructure: The hostel is pretty comfortable, and water is also abundant. The library is very aesthetic and gives us an entirely warm feeling. Then come the classrooms, which are really spacious, they can accommodate about 60 students at once, and the labs are very cool.

Helpful campus for students from Iritty.

Infrastructure: The college was absolutely suitable for students from Iritty and nearby tribal areas, as during monsoon and climate changes it's difficult for students to go to Kannur to study further. Iritty had good frequent bus connectivity, and most students studying here were first graduates. Hostel facilities are not available, so suggest looking for nearby PG/rooms within 2 to 3 kms.
