    Overall, it's average. If you're looking to enjoy your college life, this college is not for you.
    Placements: Very few students have been placed. Specifically, only 5 out of 50. The highest package offered is up to 8 LPA, and the lowest is 2.5 LPA, with Accenture and Samsung being the primary companies that came for placement. There were very few companies that visited for placements, and many students didn't get placed, which resulted in a loss for those who paid placement fees, and the placement portals also had trouble.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average, though it is now being upgraded. Overall, the quality of the college is average. If you are taking a course here, you will need to put in your own efforts and spend more money for various things, as proper information is not passed to students, and there are no extra activities.
    Faculty: Staff are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, though some have an attitude. They collect money for all events but lack proper management, with not a single trip planned; it's entirely up to your own interest. The difficulty level is not too high, with a pass percentage of 55 out of 100.
    Other: In this campus, the fest, crowd, connectivity, and other activities are extremely limited due to very low numbers of students.
