Learning beyond the classroom. The infrastructure and facilities are good.
Placements: I can state with confidence that the BBA in media and communication program is genuinely having a transformation for me. With packages ranging between 3.5 LPA and 9 LPA, the average is 5.5 LPA for my batch. 80-90 percent of our batch was placed. While many of my peers were selected in reputed companies like Viacom, Disney, and NDTV. A Media Planner, social media, and public relations job was offered. I really thank you for giving such industry exposure and for giving such practical knowledge.
Infrastructure: Whistling Wood International offers top-notch faculty members. The labs and media labs have all that is needed for a learning experience, and classrooms are clean and equipped with wi-fi, a projector, and audiovisual aids. The library is an ideal place for me. Medical services are also available in college. The hostel and canteen are also good. The campus provides a balanced and enjoyable experience by promoting cultural fests and sports.
Faculty: The WLL faculty members are well qualified, encouraging, and infuse useful industry exposure into classrooms. They follow a practical and interactive approach to teaching. The curriculum is designed well and is industry-focused, encompassing media, marketing, business, and communication skills that actually prepare students for upcoming challenges. The semester exam is achievable if you remain consistent with your studies. The majority of students perform well in the semester exam.

Amazing infrastructure, experienced faculty members, and more than enough opportunities.
Placements: There's a full guarantee of placements as students generally get recruited at the same places where they do internships. Internships are offered in big fashion brands and designers like Manish Malhotra, Anita Dongre, etc. Students get to work closely with these designers.
Infrastructure: Facilities are amazing with every hi-tech upto date software and equipment. We have a big library with almost every book and every movie/series you need on cassette tapes. There are Wi-Fi facilities and big equipped classrooms for each department. There's more than one eatery on campus, which gives a lot of food options.
Faculty: Faculty members are amazing with a very good industrial experience. The jury which is exam season is based on creativity and confidence in your design. Faculty trains us for real-world perfection, work, and handling rejection. Exam season is stressful but creativity is at its peak with fabulous design on display.

I liked the hostel as it is clean, well equipped, and very affordable.
Placements: In last semester, students were eligible for campus placements, a lot of NGOs visited the campus, and a few companies visited the campus, the most famous one being ICICI Bank and SBI. Earlier, the UN also used to come, but since COVID, they have not come. Nearly all the students who wish to get a job were placed. The highest package this year was at 9 LPA in Masters course.
Infrastructure: NRYF was our annual fest, and it was very good, lot of books were accessible, and a lot of classrooms had teaching boards and projectors. Sports need to be focused on more. A lot of clubs were there in college. Just ask in the academic section, they take your signature and you were done. It was very tough to rent outside the college as the college was far from town, so I tried getting a hostel, as everyone stays in a hostel only. It was affordable with just 30k per year.
Faculty: Faculty to student Ratio is quite good, as I can say that for every 30 students, there were 4 faculty members, or 1 faculty member for every 6 to 7 students. The faculty was very friendly and approachable. I personally liked Shridhar sir and Deepak Abnave sir, they can be the best faculty we have.

Alumni Network is amazing. It is widely spread and very strong in the industry.
Placements: WWI has a Placement Cell that keeps a track of opportunities for students. There was a mandatory internship that students needed to complete after the completion of sem 4 before sem 5 commenced. Students can also get internships during the winter break during semester 5. There were various live projects that students can work on depending on their interests and experience during the academic year. Final Placement opportunities are posted to students during sem 6, where students need to list themselves and let the cell know about their interests and priorities.
Infrastructure: Library was well equipped and efficient. There were projectors in almost every classroom. There were various clubs on the campus, from the chess club to the animal club, etc. Sports activities were there, but only within the limited land area of the campus. There was a peer support group with trained peer supporters.
Faculty: Faculty was very approachable and friendly. They guide you through projects and courses. They were always available for students and found the best opportunities for them. They were all people who work in the industry or have worked with a huge network. This makes them incredible. Teaching methods were mostly practical and on the ground. Some projects challenge your brain in affiliated courses. They have exams at the end of the semester. There are also electives available.

The best part of the course was its esteemed and renowned faculty members.
Placements: From the 6th semester, all students are eligible for campus placements. There were almost 30+ companies that came to make offers, and I do not recall the names, but almost 34 LPA is the highest package they offer, and some lucky students also got 80 LPA package. Almost 80% students get placed.
Infrastructure: TISS Mumbai, being a government funded college, has a decent infrastructure, but still it can be improved, especially the library and research related funding. Hostels were good. There was no proper sports ground, but there was a facility for indoor games and a gym. Classrooms were very good.
Faculty: I do not have the idea about the faculty student ratio, but the relationship between students and faculty was very strong. The faculty was always ready for students. I do not know the name, but there was one faculty. I do not like it because they want only students who know about that field, but if you do not teach the new students how they know about that field, and all faculty members were slightly biased towards CSAI students decisions.

There is a lot of gratitude in my college.
Placements: In career prospects, they are arranging broadened offers in various zones. Companies like Snapdeal, HCL, BCG, and others are the top recruiters in providing placements with maximum packages. The starting package offered is 14.5 LPA, which may exceed up to 32.5 LPA.
Infrastructure: College has certain terms and conditions required for a happy college time. So 60% of students mostly prefer to stay in hostels rather than being day scholars. Administration of the college is under the tight control of the college in charge, so nothing is moved out without their authorization.
Faculty: Faculty members are extremely excellent in simplifying students' responsibilities, and guides needed for reference during studies are completely prepared by them. Teachers help out filling forms required for availabling scholarships and other benefits.
