    Campus life which has good environment and placements.
    Placements: In my opinion, it is the best university for offering campus placements. From 6th semester we will get the campus placements and I have interview for 13 companies but I am selected in 4 companies, which are TCS, Cognizant, L&T Mindtree, and Tata Power. In our batch, the highest package was 34 LPA, and average package was 4.5 LPA. 80% of the students were placed during recession. I have joined in Tata Power. Some of my friends have joined in M.Tech in VLSI design.
    Infrastructure: The hostels are good and bad, like new buildings are good but older ones are bad. The hostel registration is a headache. The mess food is partially good. The fees range from 16000 to 28000 for the hostel rooms based on the room type, and this is a yearly fee. Strictly no AC. Mess fees range from 4000 to 5000 monthly. Strictly no Non-Veg. The locality for taking PG is Thanjavur or Vallam.
    Faculty: The curriculum is well designed and will be effective for higher studies and helpful for placements. Most papers are useful in the real world. The frequency of exams are the main trouble but there is good gap for studying during the semester exams. Class Size: 60 Course Fees: INR 80000 per year

    SASTRA University - An honest review.
    Placements: Placements here were top-notch, with 4th-semester students becoming eligible for campus placement offers. Companies that come to our campus included Goldman Sachs, Flipkart, Deloitte, Infosys, and many more. The average package was around 10 LPA, the highest package goes up to 42 LPA, and the lowest package was 2.5 LPA.
    Infrastructure: Hostels were great, especially the new ones. They had the best facilities, from the mess to AC, Wi-Fi, security, and cleanliness. The mess menu changed according to the students' collective decision, and the hostel council approved it. The food was 8/10. The registration process was provided in detail on the website, however, being physically present at the time of document submission was necessary. The space was enough to accommodate a lot of people, especially girls.
    Faculty: The course was beautifully built in such a way that it helped me to enhance and gain in-depth knowledge, even about a small concept. Faculty members were highly knowledgeable and patient enough to clear our doubts. I really enjoy the sessions. Exams here were held in a semester pattern, which was very difficult to pass, but if students attended the daily lectures, they could easily pass the exam. Class size was 57.

The average package is around 10-12 LPA, and the highest package goes up to 42 LPA. Around 90% of students get placement here.
    Infrastructure: Hostels are provided to all students if they want. For the first year, there are double accommodation rooms, and in the second year, there are single accommodation rooms. In the hostel, there are both AC and non-AC rooms, but the rent for the AC rooms is higher. Hostel rooms are big and very spacious for two students and have an attached bathroom, which is great. The cleaning staff comes to every room daily and cleans the room very neatly. The food cooked in the mess is very tasty and healthy, with options like North and South Indian food. A canteen is also there in the hostel building, which runs 24/7.
    Faculty: MBA is chosen because of its business aspect. The curriculum is designed to explore business and corporate effectiveness as much as possible. Faculty members are well-experienced, supportive, and good-natured. Their teaching skills are awesome; they make difficult concepts very easy. They use PPTs, and every class is equipped with smart boards. Examinations are a little difficult here. Class Size: 58 Course Feels: 157,000 per year.
