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 lakh...

Don't join in the NMS Sermathai Vasan College for Women.

Placements: They provide placement in this college but it is a worthless waste of our time. The placement package is very low like Rs 10,000 per month. Mostly the companies from Madurai will come for recurring. Mostly the students didn't join the company because of the low package.
