The college is overall okay, but not worth the fees.

Infrastructure: Girls’ hostel is outside the college, which is a drawback. For boys, it is inside the campus. Also, many students have suffered from food poisoning in the hostel. The hostel is very strict, and many students find it difficult to adjust. The food quality is below average.

Placements are good, but campus placements are decreasing in the coming years.

Placements: Out of 100, only 25% to 50% of students get placed. The highest package is 10 LPA, and the lowest is 2 LPA. When I come to the college, they say TCS and other big companies recruit, but now I see that startups are being recruited instead. Only about 25% of students get placed in a year, while others go for higher studies due to a lack of placements. The top roles in the course are very few, and activities in college life are also limited compared to other colleges.

Some faculty members are egoistic, while some are very well behaved.

Placements: In my college, around 7% of students from my course get placements. The lowest package is zero rupees if a scholarship is earned by the student. The highest is around 5 LPA. The top recruiting companies are some local companies.

College is good enough but not worth the money and needs improvement in arts.

Placements: Placements in our course are average. They are not as high as claimed. However, the college mentions that almost 30–40 percent of students get good IT or core roles. Most offers come from mass recruiters or lesser-known companies. Many roles are support-based. Students usually arrange internships on their own.

It is a value-for-money college with great placements and great college life.

Placements: Most students are placed in the previous batch with good placements. The highest package is 6 LPA from Deloitte. Top recruiting companies include auditing firms such as Deloitte and EY, and banking companies like Federal Bank. Most students get internships, as the certificate holds great value. Top roles include auditing, accounting, and banking.

The college is amazing, and students are very fun to mingle with.

Placements: Above 60 percent of students are placed. The highest package is around 12 LPA, with an average of 8–9 LPA for B.Com. Companies like Deloitte and EY come for placements. More than 70 percent of students get internships. The college assists with placements and provides internships for almost all students in my department. I do not have prior knowledge about other departments.
