The college campus is very beautiful, and the hostels are also good.

Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are very good, with 24-hour electricity and running water. There are also water coolers for cold water in the summers, and a fan and light are provided inside each room for students. The bathrooms and corridors are cleaned regularly with disinfectants, so there is no bad odor. The rooms are also well-maintained.

The college is full of diversity with people coming from different states.

Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are the best. It has a mini football ground, a badminton court, a gym, and a volleyball and basketball court. It also has a table tennis room, foosball, snooker, and carrom board. The hostel seats are limited to around 200+ students. Regarding the mess, it’s not that good to be frank.

Computer labs are very highly expensive.

Infrastructure: Triple-sharing rooms with and without AC are available, 12 rooms per floor, providing a study table, an almirah, and all the basic things. Laundry is available and gives clothes after 3 days, house cleaning service has been topped for inside the room, no cleaning in the room until further notice, which is not good at all. Multiple complaints have been made to the concerned authorities, but still, it's been over a month now, and there's been no improvement at all.

Infrastructure: Buildings are of old architecture and no modern amenities are available. The buildings are weak and seepage is bad. Toilets are not up to the mark with no water most of the time. Classrooms are not in good condition. On rainy days, we suffer leakage from the terrace. Hostel experience is below average with the same problems. Food quality is bad, but the rooms are big enough.

It's very affordable even for students who are financially weak.

Infrastructure: Hostel was cheaper than any other colleges, and it had a separate hostel for boys and girls. But the hostel was not too good, it was normal, and it provided normal facilities. Canteen was good. It provided better meals, like homemade food according to routine or a menu. You had to register for the hostel in advance, and then they would allocate the hostel and room. Hostel fee was Rs. 12,000 and Rs. 18,000 for the mess. If you wanted better facilities, then you would choose PG.

Management, I love the way the college manages certain things.

Infrastructure: There exist certain social welfare clubs such as NCC, NSS, Anthony Youth Club, and many more. These clubs do not stand just for the betterment of the college itself, however, it has impacted the whole town of Shillong. Centers such as hospitals, orphanages, etc. They are being provided with necessities such as food, clothing, and many more. Moreover, things such as blood donation are being done.

Infrastructure: Rooms were located in a housing society in Khelgaon temporary, and I don't see any near future when they will shift. Facilities were decent to good. The rooms were spacious enough and had single beds. Everyone who was a student got a hostel so no need for registration and other stuff.

Amazing faculty members with strong industry experience.

Infrastructure: Hostel of my institute was located in the residential block of Khelgaon which was located on the outskirts of the city. The housing arrangement consisted of 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom shared flats. There was single room occupancy for every student with an attached washroom and balcony. Believe me, the view from the balcony was breathtaking. Each block had its own mess and canteen.

There is no widespread information suggesting NEHU has stopped offering most B.Sc courses like Botany and Zoology. It's best to check the official NEHU website's the latest prospectus or contact their admissions department directly for the most accurate information on current course availability.
