A good college option if you miss out on the top 3 colleges in Mumbai, great location.

Infrastructure: We, Self-financing Programme Students, have AC classrooms with Wi-Fi and smart LED screens for educational purposes instead of typical whiteboards. There is no hostel and canteen at the college, but there's a Nescafé in the parking lot of the college. There's a college turf a few metres away from the college and a garden area or outdoor gym on the college campus.

My college review of computer engineering.

Infrastructure: In my opinion, I loved the facilities and infrastructure at my college, but I think the Wi-Fi issue occurs sometimes. The labs are well-equipped, the classroom is okay, and the library is stocked with various types of engineering books for my department. I am not from the hostel, but my friends told me that the hostel food is good, which is awesome.

Satisfied with the teaching but not with the placement.

Infrastructure: The library is good, but no Wi-Fi is provided. I also found a couple in the library, which is disturbing. They should remove them from the library. The quality of food is good in the canteen, and the college also supports sports, in which I have taken part. Medical support is also provided by the college.

Good college, decent placement, good faculty, but the syllabus is outdated.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available in the lab and library. The classroom is okay and decent, but not that comfortable. As a day scholar, I don't know the hostel. The canteen is decent, and the turf is good, but they give free passes to play very few times. Turf without a pass is paid.

The college has value-for-money, and good infrastructure too.

Infrastructure: My college has one of the best infrastructures. Labs, classrooms and the library are too good, but they don't share their Wi-Fi passwords. This is one of the major problems, and another is that the washrooms are very congested. They are built in a very small area, and there are mirrors in the washrooms. The canteen facility is good, but it has limited items. The sports facility is excellent.
