Absolutely satisfied with the college curriculum, facilities, and interior.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi at Pillai College is not good, and students face difficulties in such cases. It is advisable to use our own internet for academic use. The library is huge, and all the required resources are available, but there is a lot of noise there, and it is almost impossible to concentrate.

Infrastructure: Classrooms were straight out of colonial India. Pracheen, as we call it in Hindi. They had a library, and they made us pay for it, but they didn't have any books other than the courses offered in college.
