Mithibai College is the most happening College!

Infrastructure: Mithibai College hardly has any infrastructure, as it's just a building campus and some floors are used by other colleges. There are three colleges in one building and the major part of it is our college. Parking space is also very limited, but our canteen and auditorium are exceptional.

I am satisfied with the college I have.

Infrastructure: The college has maintained good Wi-Fi. There are computer labs and also well-conditioned classrooms. The food in the canteen is great, but maybe there can be a good upgrade for our college. Otherwise, it's great. They should add a girls' gym too. Otherwise, it's great.

I genuinely hate this college.

Infrastructure: Building looks good from outside, but it's not that great inside. There is no college auditorium. It's been there in an under-construction form for more than a year. There is no canteen or mess facility provided by this college. Only Olympic-targeted sports are available in this college.

Infrastructure: Only the library has Wi-Fi. Classrooms are big enough and are fully air-conditioned. The library lacks basic facilities. The fans don't work properly. The seats aren't cushioned. Computer labs are pretty good, with high-spec computers and fully air-conditioned rooms.
