My college is normal, not that good.
Placements: Likely 70% minimum, there are many courses and internships. They give internships, and there are small companies, and at the same time. They say they have a low effect to get it properly if you need that course, if you think that you can get it.
Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi, but a lab is there, and the classroom is normal, not that good. The library is better. There are so many books, and AC is also available. You can study quietly without any disturbance, and the canteen is normal, not that good. Sports are available, like football, cricket, and volleyball.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful for students, and they have so much knowledge of studies, and the teaching quality is very good for me. If I don't understand, they help me to get it, and they are very friendly to students, talking politely. Overall, all the teachers are good.

Satisfied because of faculty and good placements. Overall, it is good but not the best, obviously.
Placements: 50% of students get placed honestly. The lowest package is 1.8 LPA and the highest is 13 LPA. Top recruiters are Infosys, Deloitte, and TCS. Almost everyone does free internships, but very few get paid ones. All roles for every branch are offered, including CS, IT, EXTC, AIDS, Mechanical, and a new branch called Designing, which is trending and getting a good response.
Infrastructure: All facilities are provided which should be present in an ideal college. The quality of the hostel is average and decent. The hostel is not worth the money. The food is not worth the money at all, as the hostel mess costs nearly lakhs but the food quality is poor.
Faculty: Few teachers are not that good, but faculty is mostly qualified, with many holding Ph.D. degrees. The curriculum is relevant and makes students industry-ready if they put in effort. Obviously, we cannot solely depend on teachers. We must study ourselves as well.
Other: It is one of the better colleges in Navi Mumbai compared to other colleges. .

A good college with decent placements.
Placements: In our college, specifically in my course, around 70–80% of students are placed. The highest package is 8 LPA, and the lowest is around 2.8 LPA. Top recruiters include TCS, Infosys, Wipro, and Capgemini. Roles offered are Software Developer, Analyst, and Power BI.
Infrastructure: We have ACs in our labs and projectors in all our classes. The library is fully air-conditioned and has more than 3,000 books. We also have an Apple lab. I live in the hostel, which is on campus. We have two or three sharing rooms, and it is cleaned every alternate day.
Faculty: We have well-experienced teachers who are very helpful. Our semester exams are moderate, and anyone who concentrates in class can easily pass. All the subjects taught are helpful during placements and interviews. We have two unit tests every semester of 20 marks each, and from the second year onwards, we have mini projects.
Other: I chose Computer Engineering because it is in demand in today’s market, and I am keen to learn. We also have cultural fests, inter-college fests, and technical fests.

Minority students with good cooperative connections are adjusted. Keep this college as the last prio
Placements: I am in my final year of graduation. My seniors are jobless in the very trending branch of Artificial Intelligence and Data Science. We are getting a job internship related to sales, a totally different field. There are hardly any good company that comes for interviews and campus placement. They do not support students in finding internship or a job you need to search on your own. In this, only one seminar is held for internship and 2 years job agreement with a very low salary. The highest package is 8LPA and the lowest is so low, 15 to 25k per month, as per my knowledge in past three years.
Infrastructure: No hostel facility, and nearby location is a posh area. You need to live with friends and rent a house, or alone in a PG paying guest. Library books related to the entrance exam is low, and Wi-Fi speed is slow, which affects our practical session. Classroom and infrastructure are okay, manageable, not too good or too bad.
Faculty: Last semester, for the experiments we were absent, we needed to pay a 100 rupee fine, and they were even giving treats in the final year internal exam. No viva was conducted without a fine. No job. Old syllabus does not focus on practical learning. Many of my friends and I lack practical experience or knowledge. Teachers are cooperative and helpful, but some are not qualified. I think so, after M.Tech, they start their teaching journey. Few teachers are only B.Tech. Some do not even know how to teach. Students are cheating and copying in the semester exam. The college is affiliated with Mumbai University.
Other: Events are limited, and because of fewer participants, many events are cancelled. I chose the course because it was trending at that time, and it is currently. Artificial Intelligence and Data Science is my branch. I thought Rizvi College was a brand, but now its not a brand like in the past. I took admission here. Teaching, infrastructure, hygiene in washrooms, and space canteen timing, moving towards the practical side, not theory, is the area of improvement. Crowd is a mess, and the majority of cheap minority students make up more than 90%. They do not have any class. The worst college life. No entertainment.

Decent college, good enough faculty members, good infrastructure.
Placements: I am a student of Rizvi College of Engineering. I am pursuing my bachelors in the domain of AI & this, and I would like to share my honest review about my college. Placements in our course are fairly good, around 70% to 80% got placed in good companies. The highest package our college student got is about 10-12 LPA in Indian Rupees, while the lowest package is 3 LPA. The average package is 4-6 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my college is quite decent. We have one library which is quite good. The only thing which I personally don’t like is we have only one canteen for 4 different colleges, like the college infrastructure is divided into 4 colleges: Rizvi College of Law, Rizvi College of Architecture, Rizvi College of Hotel Management, and Rizvi College of Engineering. So all the students have to share only one canteen. I have heard that we have one more canteen in our college, maybe for law or hotel management students, but all students come to that canteen.
Faculty: The faculty members in my college are quite supportive, because of the change in syllabus by Mumbai University, new subjects are added in our semester exams, so right now my college is suffering a little bit. But overall, faculty members are good and well educated. The only thing you have to remember before joining a college is that you are not a small kid for whom teachers start teaching with ABCD, you already have an awareness of some basic concepts which you have learned earlier.
Other: When I had to choose one course between CS and AIDS, I chose AIDS. I had enough percentile to get admission in CS, but I really want to learn AI. But till now, we have not been introduced to AI at all. Right now, I am in 2nd Year, 3rd semester. I have the next semester syllabus also, but there is no presence of AI at all there.

A good college you should consider for admission.
Placements: The recent placement drives started a bit stagnant, but later took a good turn. Now that many companies have already approached for jobs and internships, it has been easier for students to get in, though CGPA is a critical criterion, but your skills matter too.
Infrastructure: It's less of the infrastructure, like the labs and all are good sometimes, there is an issue with the internet, but most of the time it works well. The campus is nothing other than just a building with a small lounge on the ground where people barely fit. The seminar halls are good.
Faculty: The curriculum provided by my college is quite old-fashioned, focusing more on theory than on practical knowledge, so it's difficult for the students to manage skills and CGPA at the same time. I don't understand the curriculum much, but I guess we have to do.
Other: Good batchmates, and fests happen often, so it's good.
