According to my notes, the lowest package was about 3 LPA, and the highest package was about 15 LPA. Compared to others, the placements were generally superior. There was a high placement policy at this college. Numerous businesses came to hire. Our course resulted in internships for 75% of students.
    Infrastructure: Students at our college had access to dorms. Hostel provides large, well-furnished rooms with laundry. It had internet access in a cozy and tidy setting. They focused on providing students with wholesome and freshly prepared meals. The committed staff of instructors upheld order and guided students while they stayed at the hostel.

    Review of St. Aloysius College, Thrissur.
    Placements: I am expecting much better guidance in placements and looking for some other better companies for partnering with the college. The packages are not so highly enough, while considering the college campus is the only way to start our career. Even the highest package would be below 8 LPA.
    Infrastructure: All classrooms have continuous power connectivity, and they are spacious and fully ventilated with air. The main objective of the college is to reach good standards with a lot of recognition. So, only eligible students are allowed admission into the college.
    Faculty: There should be a particular staff member assigned for every subject. They should not ask teachers to handle any of the subjects. Teachers gives more importance to the grading systems of the students rather than the placement percentage.
