The review of The New College.

Placements: I am studying in my second year now, so I didn't attend or get selected for placement, but my seniors who passed out last year were placed. Only a few students for example if 100 students are attending the placement, only 30 members got placed. All 100 students are well prepared but there are not enough companies to place them.

Infrastructure: There is a neat and good lab with enough software for programming and a projector in all classrooms, but in some classes the projectors are damaged, which should be fixed but they didn't care about that, and the computers in the lab are bugged. Now, about hostel, the warden is very strict, and the food is not that good but its quality is poor. There are good medical facilities. The college also gives importance to sports.

Faculty: The teachers are qualified and knowledgeable. They can make you understand every topic. We can't be sure that a B.Sc. course will make you industry-ready, but if you're interested, the faculty will help you. The semester exams are slightly tough but we can pass easily if we know the concept. The pass percentage is 35 percent.

Other: The course can teach you about programming but it is not enough to get a job in it or any other programming sector. They could improve by going more in-depth into programming. There are cultural events in this college but they will allow you to participate in codeathons and hackathons. There is a MEASI scholarship. Free meals for distant students and single-parent students. No events are conducted.

Satisfied with college overall, studies-wise, but extracurricular activities also matter.

Placements: Almost 90 percent of the students get placed in my course. I am not sure about the highest package at the moment, as I will get it next year. EY and Deloitte provide internship opportunities in the college group, but mainly students have to search for internships on their own. Roles include financial analyst, accountant, etc.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi isn't provided. A library is available. A sports ground is there, but no major sports event is conducted apart from once a year. Food is available, and the quality is good. I have never come across the medical facilities. Sports facilities are good, but they should conduct events regularly.

Faculty: The teaching quality is good. A few teachers guide me throughout the course and are really helpful and knowledgeable. It is relevant and makes students industry-ready. The pass percentage is about 70 percent. The exams are quite easy to crack and pass.

Other: I chose this course for better knowledge. I want to pursue my career in finance. Best thing about it is that a few faculty is really helpful. They guide me throughout the course. There should be more sports events. Cultural fests and events should be held regularly.

Madras University carries a legacy.

Placements: It's a Language and Literature course, so we don't get any placement from there. But the course demands a one-month internship for the students. It's also a part of our syllabus. So we get an opportunity to upgrade our skills and experience. It's really helpful for further studies.

Infrastructure: There is a huge collection of Malayalam books in the department library. They provide books for all interested students. Also, Madras University has a huge library and Wi-Fi book system. The hostel also provides a library study room and Wi-Fi.

Faculty: Faculty members of our campus are good. There are 4 semesters. Each semester carries two sessional exams and a main exam. It will ease our study load. We need 50% to pass every exam. The teaching quality is top-level. We can approach them anytime we need.
