    Actual Intention of the SOA University.
    Placements: Placements occur in our college. Almost 70% of students get their desired job with a satisfactory salary. The highest package is around 20 LPA, the average is around 6 to 7 LPA, and the lowest is around 5 LPA. An internship system is also available in our university.
    Infrastructure: The course is mostly related to the real world and application-based. Facilities provided are neither top-notch nor poor. The buildings are not old and are strong, so they do not break down easily. Labs have sufficient computers, and free Wi-Fi is available for all students. The hostel is good and has enough space to live in. The mess and canteen food is acceptable. The university also provides medical facilities.
    Faculty: Teachers are highly skilled and talented but also very down to earth. The teaching methods are not complicated, and anyone can learn from them. The course curriculum is engaging and keeps you busy most of the time. The semester exams are not very difficult but are quite tricky. They help develop your brain for upcoming challenges.
    Other: I chose this because I am not an extraordinary person not a very weak student. I was clear that I cannot pursue higher studies in any big course. I was sure that agriculture is my sure shot. The best thing about the agriculture branch is that it takes you to the land. This helps you understand how to manage land and irrigation.

    The reality of the inside life of SOA University.
    Placements: We have a placement system here, but I do not know how the placement system works here. Most students like to place from the outside campus because of the expectation for a higher salary. There is no data about the highest or lowest package offered in my course. All I know is that students are satisfied with what they get.
    Infrastructure: The academic buildings and the hostel buildings are huge and wide. All the students studying over there can fit in and sit comfortably wherever they want. I do not know anything much about the hostel because I am a day scholar, but my hostel friends say that the hostel is big, and the food quality is acceptable. There are many indoor games to play.
    Faculty: The curriculum that we study here is very relevant to the practical world. As for my branch, it is quite practical to know from the texts that we read here. The curriculum over here makes the students ready to implement in the practical and real world, also. The semester exams are not too difficult, but it is tricky and test your ultimate mind, and they help you to be smarter.
    Other: Do not keep the hopes very high. The campus life here depends on the perspective of the student. Just be in reality, and it will be better for you. The college does have a huge library here, and many useful books and journals are available, that is very much required for all graduates. Many sports events occur here. Cricket, football, badminton, volleyball, basketball, kabaddi, and kho-kho are the most popular sports that are held during each sports event. Each branch conducts a fresher party for its newly arriving juniors.

    Faculty: Teachers are extremely helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. We experienced quality teaching during the 4-year course. The theory from classroom teaching and the practical experience gained during the field visits are all helpful to the students.

    College has good infrastructure and a crowd. Placements are low. Hostel food is average.
    Placements: Placement in our college is pretty low. Average salary package offered is 6 LPA. Companies that come for placements are generally seed and fertilizer companies. Only 20-30% of the students get placed. There is an internship programme in the 4th year.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure of the college is pretty good. Buildings are well-structured and there are plenty of facilities here. Most of the classrooms have AC. We have a huge library containing useful books for our course. There is a cafeteria in the college. Hostel infrastructure is good, but the hostel food is not average.
    Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable, and they have good teaching skills. Most of the teachers are OUAT graduates. HoDs of different departments are OUAT retired professors. Senior teachers are non-friendly, but the young teachers are very helpful and friendly. Semester exams are quite easy, one can ace them with only a week of preparation. Passing percentage is 40%.
    Other: I chose this course because I have an interest in agriculture, and it has various opportunities in future. Best thing about the course is that it is very interesting. I hope the placements were better. Throughout the year, we have multiple fests going on. Fests are the best part of our college life. surroundings of the campus are clean and aesthetic.

    I am dissatisfied and very sad with this course.
    Placements: 80% of students get placed in our course. The average package offered is 2 LPA. Teaching is the only scope here. We can also apply for civil services and banking, but most students opt for an M.Sc or MBA and then a PhD. Hardly any campus placements are there.
    Infrastructure: Food was 4 out of 10, and very limited facilities are given. College infrastructure is fine, but many classrooms don’t have a proper fan, making it really unbearable to attend classes. Further, only 40% of teachers are friendly, the rest are very strict.
    Faculty: Teachers are very qualified, but the course curriculum is not relevant. We attend exams after every 1 month, and we complete a 6-month course in 4-5 months mostly. Further, no study trips are conducted. The assigned semester exams are normal. Further, only 40% of teachers are friendly, and the rest are very strict.
    Other: My father recommended me, so I pursued this course, but there is no such best thing here. I wish they could use a practical way of making students understand it. Events are not organised here.

    The college doesn't provide placements.
    Placements: The college doesn't provide placements for the Integrated M.Sc. Biotechnology course. It’s just a degree from NIT, even value for money. They charge very high fees for this course, but still can't provide placements. So, I would not recommend this college to anyone. If you go to Inter, as Campus 1 of SOA University, it is okay, there are placements for all courses, but for Campus 2, I would not recommend anyone to take admission, as there are no placements.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good, but not the best. Also, the environment is not good.
    Faculty: All teachers are good.
