Absolutely satisfied with the curriculum, education, faculty, and overall experience.

Placements: 50% of students got their placement from English Literature as teachers, telecallers, and lecturers. Others are continuing their Ph.D. Rs. 20,000 is the highest package. If you passed NET, you can get up to 60,000/-. But the others only get 10,000 as a salary. Deloitte, Kendriya schools, and other local schools are major recruiters. Internship is mandatory, so all of us go to internships in digital marketing, journalism, and teaching fields. Content writers are the current roles that pay in lakhs.

Infrastructure: Mobile phones are restricted in our college, so the free Wi-Fi is not very helpful. Still, we can access the library books and labs with the ID scanner at any working time. Our hostel consists of 700 students, where we actually get good quality food and provisions of medical facilities, often once a week. Sports players are highly encouraged, and even normal students are appreciated for playing.

Faculty: Teachers are very friendly in our department. The sister and other president heads are a bit more strict and can't even handle the stress sometimes. They never failed to teach with their experience and expertise. Our curriculum is based on the government syllabus and is relevant to the course. Although semester exams are tricky, we've been trained to tackle them by the internal exam difficulties. We plan according to how difficult the internal exams are; the pass percentage is 40%.

Other: I chose the arts because they preach life and reality. We know the history of England, which helps us understand the impact it created in India, like other colonized countries. More language-based teaching would be a plus if added. Our department, especially, conducts lots of competitions, both inter- and intra-level, and all are encouraged and motivated to participate. Scholarships also reach the right people. We don't have enough time to connect or socialize, which lacks some real-life skills.

Average placements, supportive faculty members, and balanced campus life.

Placements: Around 60% of students are successfully placed in the college. Mostly the banking placement is high. The highest package is 12 LPA, the lowest is 3 LPA, and the average is 6.5 LPA. 70% of students received internships in several companies. Making students fairly industry-ready.

Infrastructure: Our college has smart classrooms, Wi-Fi access, and a central library with digital resources. Hostel facilities are decent, with clean rooms, 24X7 water, and good security. The mess and canteen food is average but hygienic, offering both veg and non-veg options. We also have medical support, sports grounds, and indoor games facilities for overall students' wellness.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is good. The curriculum is relevant, and includes practical exposure, making students fairly industry-ready. Semester exams are moderately difficult, focusing on both theory and application. The overall pass percentage is around 90-95%, showing supportive evaluation and guidance.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in practical learning, career opportunities, and industry exposure. The best things are updated syllabus, supportive faculty members, and strong placement assistance. I wish there were more hands-on training, industry tie-ups, and research opportunities in the course. Campus has vibrant fests, good connectivity, scholarships, extracurricular activities, and a friendly crowd that make students' life enjoyable.

Absolutely dissatisfied with the placement in 2025.

Placements: There are no placements at all after COVID-19 but our college will conduct government placement opportunities. The average package has to be 2-3 LPA. Roles offered in our course were mostly startup company developed. In the previous year, 10% of students took an internship program.

Infrastructure: We had a decent lab with 40 working systems. Labs are connected with the Wi-i. The hostel facility is not available for boys. They have to stay in the government hostel. The canteen is a pretty choice with a limited amount of snacks. Sports is pretty decent in our college. We recently won some trophies too. Every year they conduct sports day.

Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is really good. The course curriculum makes students industry-ready at some basic point. The semester exam in our college is pretty difficult with a pass mark of 27 out of 75. and for the lab practical exam, you have to take 27 out of 60 in the external lab.

Other: I had an interest in the CS course that's why I am choosing this course. The thing to improve in our course is to add some more advanced topics. In our college, there are some scholarship functions too.

Good staff, and they teach very well.

Placements: Good placement. Everyone must join Yadava College for a good future. Many courses are available. Fees are very budget-friendly. A large percentage of students joined new companies from this college. Companies conduct high-level campus interviews for students who got internships.

Decent academic, needs placement improvement, but the food is average.

Placements: Our batch has a 78% placement rate, with the highest package reaching 5 LPA and the average being 3 LPA. Recruiters included IT firms like TCS and Infosys, and analytics companies offering roles like data analyst and business intelligence associate, mathematics teaching professor, and teachers.

Infrastructure: Classroom infrastructure is good, and the Wi-Fi is excellent. The facilities in our college are good, with average food but good quality. The canteen always has food and snacks available. Healthy food and medical facilities are always available in our college; anyone with a problem immediately has access to the medical room, first aid facility, and doctor.

Faculty: The mathematical faculty members are highly qualified and have created a strong learning environment. The curriculum was well structured, with a solid theoretical foundation and preparation for competitive examinations. This batch maintained a strong academic record. The department participated in seminars and intercollegiate competitions.

Other: I chose math because I like it very much, so I selected this course. I think learning capacity improves every student.

Really affordable price but not having value for education.

Placements: Nearly 30% of students were placed per year. Packages range from the lowest 12k to up to 60k. Top recruiters include TCS, Infosys, Dmart, TMB, SBI, Maruti Suzuki, etc. Up to 3% of students are placed in top companies, and the rest in mid companies. Top roles include management head, clerk, employee, office manager, etc.

Infrastructure: My B.Com Department has a lot of faculty and some discomforts. Facilities include a depth library, free Wi-Fi, computer lab, spacious classrooms, cooling water, and normal water supply. Discomforts include the electric fans that make students sweat. Sometimes bad smells affect students. The food quality of the hostel is average but eatable. The canteen food has no much more menu, and with only one canteen for the whole college, it creates huge queues and discomfort. Medical facilities are good, and sports events are conducted regularly.

Faculty: The teaching qualities are well, good, and caring. There are many well-experienced teachers in my department. I am in my 2nd year but still haven't gone for an industrial visit. The pass mark was 40 in semester exams, and the questions were tougher, making students fail and struggle with arrears.

Other: I chose the course only for the lower fees compared to other courses because I have no money to study better courses. Providing industrial visits may help improve knowledge in a practical environment. Many events are conducted, about 20-25 per year. The crowd of the college is huge, nearly 4k to 5k students in a single campus. They do not provide scholarships but help to avail scholarships from the government.
