I'm definitely satisfied.

Infrastructure: The whole college is wrapped in greenery. There are three different buildings based on the course. A neat and clean library with great quality of food in the canteen, long routes to roam, and have fun with friends during break. We have grounds for sports and even a huge seminar hall.

College is okay for students who live near the college.

Infrastructure: The college did not have much impressive infrastructure. The college premises were not very big, they were very small. The campus was small, not very big like other colleges. The college was spread over an area of 1-2 acres of land. There was a canteen there, but it was always closed.

My experience at KC as an upcoming sophomore.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available, but not in every lab. Labs aren’t extraordinary, but they do the needful, so it's okay. The library is cool, on the other hand, with plenty of books, and has AC. Classrooms are not bad either. Again, nothing special, but they do have ACs. There is no hostel, and the canteen is good, although slightly expensive.

My experience as a 1st year BBA at Hinduja with collaboration with IIDE.

Infrastructure: We have all indoor facilities, but no campus besides the building. They don't offer any hostel facility, and as a hostel student myself, it's hard to live nearby, as it's a very expensive area. They should provide a hostel. The indoor facilities are amazing. The library, labs, classrooms, and Wi-Fi are all top-notch. The canteen will be open soon, too.

It has great faculty and good infrastructure. Placements are not good. Overall, it is average.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are old but functional. Benches are small and a little worn out. Labs have Wi-Fi, but they are a little inconsistent sometimes. The library is one of the best I have seen. It has all books required in engineering, and books that are not available in their library, we can borrow those books from the New Panel Pillai too (if they have them). The canteen is great as they have expanded the seating area. The food is hygienic, and honestly tastes good. Overall, it is great.

Infrastructure: HR College recently underwent renovation. All classrooms are equipped with whiteboards, smart boards, and ACs that mostly operate at students' discretion. Seats are comfortable, and rooms are spacious with several windows overlooking surroundings.

Overall, the average college is better in subject of standards.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is one of the worst qualities of this college. There are random pillars in classrooms that completely block the whiteboards. The toilets are always dirty. The corridors always seem dull and dark and it feels like it could be a set for a horror movie. The new floor they built is pretty decent.
