The faculty is good, but students are not taken seriously.
Placements: I don't know much about the placements. But the B.Com course can give you an average starting salary of Rs. 20,000 for bachelor of commerce and bachelor of computer application.
Infrastructure: In essence, ASP College offers a well-rounded, contemporary campus infrastructure that fosters academic excellence, practical learning, physical well-being, and student welfare. All supported by advanced technology and a green ambience. The campus is good.
Faculty: Examinations are conducted in a semester pattern and are considered moderately challenging. The evaluation process is transparent, with a good balance of objective, descriptive, and application-based questions. Internal assessment, presentations, and assignments also contribute to the final grades, promoting continuous learning. Overall, the B.Com. program at ASP College is academically rigorous and professionally relevant. The teaching approach is student-friendly, and the college ensures students are prepared not just for exams but for future careers. This combination of dedicated faculty, industry-oriented curriculum, and structured assessment makes it a preferred choice for commerce aspirants in North Karnataka. Teachers are supportive.
Other: Overall, it's nice. It is far from the city, so traveling is a little headache.

The place where you build your character and career both with knowledge and skills.
Placements: Maybe 40% or 50% of students got placed for jobs. A minimum of 4 LPA- 5 LPA packages were offered in Wipro and Tata companies. Top roles offered for our course were HR or junior analyst. B.Sc. mathematics and computer science had good careers in companies and can earn more.
Infrastructure: Our college infrastructure was very nice with big classrooms and a number of benches and fans. Library was very good with a huge collection of books and newspapers. Labs were available in very good condition. PCs and Wi-Fi were available at any time in campus and labs. The canteen had a good pace and sports were encouraged well.
Faculty: Faculty members were very friendly and highly knowledgeable. They were ready to teach many of the times, not only syllabus but also other knowledge were given about life and career information. Semester exams were held very strictly and question paper would be difficult as well as moderate.
Other: I chose this course because I was interested in teaching and this college would be the best choice for graduation. I wish they made some arrangements of seats in campus garden.

My worst college life not good.
Placements: Our batch had 60 students, with the highest package offered being approximately 50,000 and the lowest around 15,000. While there weren't top-tier recruiting companies, some small firms conducted placements at our college. About 15% of students secured internships with small companies, and the top role offered was Business Development Executive.
Infrastructure: Anjuman BBA College offers decent facilities and infrastructure, including well-equipped classrooms, a library with a good collection of books, computer labs, and a campus with Wi-Fi connectivity. The college also has a seminar hall and basic sports facilities to support extracurricular activities. The hostel provides basic facilities like clean rooms, Wi-Fi, and 24/7 security. The mess and canteen offer a variety of meals, though the quality is average. Basic medical facilities and first aid are available, along with provisions for sports and games to promote physical activity.
Faculty: The teachers were helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, with a good understanding of their subjects. The teaching quality was satisfactory, focusing on practical learning and student engagement. The course curriculum is fairly relevant and includes essential subjects to build foundational knowledge. However, it could be more industry-focused, with added emphasis on practical skills and real-world applications to better prepare students for the workforce. The semester exams are moderately difficult, focusing on both theoretical and practical aspects. The pass percentage is relatively high, as students who attend classes regularly and prepare well generally perform successfully.
Other: I chose this course to build a strong foundation in business and management principles. The best aspects of the course are its practical approach, diverse subjects, and opportunities to develop leadership and problem-solving skills. I wish the course included more industry-oriented content, practical exposure through internships, and an updated curriculum to match current market trends. Improved placement opportunities would also be beneficial. The college hosts small-scale events and fests, with a moderate campus crowd. Connectivity to the campus is decent, with accessible transport options. The surroundings are calm but lack vibrant social spaces. Scholarships are limited, and extracurricular activities are minimal.

Fabulous college with good facilities, infrastructure, campus, placements, and many more.
Placements: Around 30% to 40% of students participated. The highest salary so far is 20 lakh, the lowest is 6 lakh, and the average salary is 10 lakh. Infosys is one of the companies involved. Almost all students secured internships with the companies they desired. I believe the highest position offered to a student is in HR.
Infrastructure: Our college's infrastructure is fabulous with a lot of facilities such as clean libraries, computer labs, etc. Everything is well maintained. We also have medical facilities and there are periods for games too and we also have so a big ground to play. The campus is so clean and big.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are well qualified and experienced. They know how to teach and also give important questions during exams and these questions are helpful which makes exams easy. Obviously, it's relevant because whatever they teach or plan their intentions is to make us confident and believe in ourselves and this college is best for it. No difficulty, u can pass easily as the staff teaches best. The passing percentage is 98%
Other: I chose this course because I have been interested in machine learning since childhood. I enjoyed working on computers and loved learning more about technology. The best part of our course is that we can learn about different programming languages and many other topics. Since this is a technical field, I believe that the number of theory subjects should be reduced. In our college, specifically in the BCA program, there are two major events: i. EVOGEN ii. MAGNUM. These are the two best events of our college and course. There are also numerous technical activities you can participate in, such as design competitions, gaming events, and more.

One of the best features is the air-conditioned lab, which is very pleasant to work in, and we also have brand-new computers with the latest features.

I don't like it. I would not recommend this college.
Placements: I'm still in my second year. Most of the recruiters are from small companies, with a few from large companies like Tata Consulting Services and Mahindra.
Infrastructure: The facilities at this college are not that good. The washrooms for male students are inadequate, and some classrooms don't have working projectors, so we have to switch classes to study. On the plus side, the library is huge, with over 30,000 books, and the canteen food is okay.
Faculty: The faculty at this college are very helpful. They are available during office hours to answer questions and address any concerns students may have. The course curriculum is relevant but challenging. Students must earn a passing grade in all courses with an overall average of more than 40%.
