My dream came true.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not so good; it is a very old college. The library facility in our college, which is common to all classrooms, is not so good. It is old, but the teaching is the best. The campus is all green. I think if you love greenery, then it is the best college to attend.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, classrooms, and the library are all good, and the facilities provided by the college might be different for all courses. I am a day scholar student, so I have no idea about the hostel, but the hostel looks like it gives good facilities for students. There is lunch, and dinner might be good, but not every day.

Real insight from a Georgian.

Infrastructure: We had Wi-Fi in both the hostel and campus. Labs and classrooms were very spacious, with classrooms that could accommodate 250 students. The hostel was top-notch, with double-sharing rooms, and every student had a separate almirah and study table. Every room had an attached balcony. The mess was awesome, offering sumptuous meals like dosa, idli, and dahi bade.
