Absolutely dissatisfied because of the college infrastructure and staff behavior.
Placements: Placements are for commerce students only, and the jobs are mainly in the sales field. The top roles offered are from a sales background. Overall, placements for science students have not started yet, according to the teachers. So, if you are looking for a college with good placement facilities, then this definitely isn't your place.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are spacious. Labs are also spacious, but labs are not well-maintained, especially the Chemistry lab. The canteen is always closed. Overall, infrastructure is below average. It needs renovation. Walls are shabby. Toilets are not cleaned properly.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable. Some teachers are not helpful. Teaching quality is good. But some teachers are not reliable. The course curriculum is relevant. Semester exams are manageable, not too tough, and not too easy. The staff's behavior is beyond tolerance, especially the non-teaching staff, who are not helpful at all.

The college is above average.
Placements: The placement cell often comes to the college. Mostly, 35–40% of students get internships from our course. The top offers are mostly for fresher employees. The number of passing-out students is high. So it becomes tough to get placements easily, as there is a lot of competition.
Infrastructure: Half of the monitors in labs do not work. The canteen is good, but if we do not buy food there, they do not allowed to sit in the canteen. There is no hostel, and sports are usually played in college only during sports days, mostly for 3–4 days.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and always support students in their subjects. The course curriculum is relevant and helps students become industry-ready. The exams are quite difficult, but teachers complete the syllabus. So the passing rate is around 80%, and most students pass.
Other: This course offers high-paying salaries.

If you are into just studies or want a normal life you can go for it. The infrastructure is trash.
Placements: I am still studying, but I guess many companies come, so it is good. I am currently doing psychology. Recently we experienced the job fair and it was tightly secured. The list of companies is also good. If you have a good resume, you can definitely get the job.
Infrastructure: I do not live in the hostel. I have not heard of the college having any personal hostel. You have to either live in a PG or any hostel nearby. There is one near the college YWCA. I have seen Bhavan's students living in it but I guess the experience is not so good.
Faculty: The papers are good but one of the staff members shouts a lot and it's irritating. They should have the CCTV camera in rooms which are actually working. Students are copying so easily. Other than that, teachers are good and there is nothing much to complain about. Just study well for the exams rather than cheating.
Other: Events are not that good. It happens in the ground and gets so dusty all around that you really won't be able to breathe.

One of the best college in Ghatkopar for Mass Media.
Placements: Almost 50% of students were placed in the respective industries. The average package was around 2.40 LPA. There were on-campus placement drives from TCS and various companies. Around 30–40% of students got internships in top media houses. The top roles offered were Anchor, Editor, Content Creator, and Advertising Manager.
Infrastructure: Our Mass Media department was on the top floor. The whole classroom was equipped with projectors, and each class had air conditioners. Wi-Fi was decent, and classrooms were big and well-ventilated. The mess and canteen were okay. Food outside the college gate was very good. Sports in our college are among the best, helping students gain extra marks.
Faculty: Teachers were exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable. They were well qualified, and their teaching was top-notch. They guided students like family. The overall experience made studying in this college worthwhile. The curriculum was relevant at that time. Students were trained to become industry-ready. The pass percentage was around 65%, as many students got ATKT in their semesters, so it was quite difficult for some students.
Other: I chose Mass Media as it was the best option available at that time. The media industry is one of the most futuristic and growing industries in our country. It gives me the freedom to pursue my passion as a creative person. In this course, more practical hands-on experience with the latest industry equipment should be provided. Fests were amazing, but I couldn’t attend them as I used to live far from campus.

The fee charged is not satisfactory and still there are many things to work out.
Placements: Since I have just completed my first year of college I am not well-versed in the placement cell of the college. I have heard that the college offers good placements in top companies and top roles. The lowest package I heard is 5 LPA-6 LPA and the highest I heard is 8 LPA-9 LPA.
Infrastructure: There is a classroom available for our course and two libraries, one for formal study purposes and another open access where you can also find course-related textbooks, other helpful books, and past papers. Wi-Fi is only available for computer labs and the computer labs can be accessed by students who can't afford computers at home. They can use it for study purposes. There is a canteen but with very limited options and a small number of options for Jain people. Sports and games are good.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, qualified, knowledgeable and very initiative in terms of making us ready for the industry. The quality of teaching is satisfactory but till now I have not found the course to be relevant to my course in banking and insurance. Some very random subjects have been taught which were not helpful in our course. Further in the second and third year the course may be more relevant and informative. The semester exams are not difficult and can be cracked easily with the help of past papers. The pass percentage is now measured in credit.
Other: I chose this college and course because this course is helpful as I will be working in the insurance industry and also the college is much better in management compared to my previous college i.e., K. J. Somaiya College of Arts and Commerce. The events and fests are okay not too good. The campus crowd is also okay. There are a lot of options for extracurricular activities which is a bonus point.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available include a library of 5000 books a reading hall, a park, a sitting area, water filters on each floor along with washroom facilities on most of the floors, and an auditorium where most of the cultural events are held. There is a dedicated separate ladies' common room. A major setback is that there is no canteen on the campus. However there are a lot of food stalls facing the college campus on the other side of the road.
Faculty: The teachers professionally mentor me who are really helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is mid considering the attendance of the students in every lecture. The course curriculum is relevant to an extent but it is certainly not enough to make the students industry-ready as it covers only the technical and theoretical aspects rather than focusing on practical and engaged learning. This semester exams for most of the subjects are really easy except accounts which range from the moderate to difficult level.
