The college is really good, and I really like it, but the population is too high.

Infrastructure: Labs are really good, world-class labs. Classrooms are very good but had no AC. It had a 3-floor library with almost all kinds of books. Hostel was good, with different kinds of mess, sports room, badminton court, gym, common area, etc., with AC rooms. Medical facilities were also good, as it is combined with Apollo.

This is best in Chennai, Tamil Nadu.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college was good for the students and faculty. This University offers many facilities, such as all-time Wi-Fi for the staff and students. The classrooms were fully air-conditioned. The hostels of this University were also very big and provided good quality food in the mess hall. At the hostel, there were many games organized every year.

The food is difficult to habituate for people from the Telugu state.

Infrastructure: Every hostel will have separate Wi-Fi systems. Students will be allowed to change their mess option each month. Dhobi service will be provided three times a month. Only labs will have air conditioning. Normal classrooms do not have air conditioning. Not all the facilities are good here.

Amazing social life with amazing faculty and average placements.

Infrastructure: The course and infrastructure with classrooms and labs are top-notch, but with hostels, it's not the same thing. Hostel rooms are very crammed and less spacious. Mainly with hostel food, a lot of students get sick very frequently, and the washrooms don't have proper functioning most of the time around campus.

This is my insight about the college. I would definitely recommend people joining here.

Infrastructure: We have the best campus. It's 192 acres of land. We have gym, swimming pool, canteens, bank, supermarket, etc. Library here is the best. We have a wide range of books from academics to comics to magazines. During exam times, the library is open until 12:00 AM or even 2:00 AM. All the canteens are well maintained except few. You can see monkeys using the same cup as they give you for drinking water or anything for that matter. Talking about extracurricular, we have 2 grounds, cricket pitch, baske...

Faculty members, classes, library, hostel, mess food, ambulance services, and everything are good.

Infrastructure: Hostels are pretty good. Generally, if we see in many other colleges, hostels are not that good but the prices are high but here the hostel is pretty decent. They provide both north and south Indian dishes. Free Wi-Fi, night canteen, and a small smart are also there. We have a health block and ambulance services are also available. We have a sports club and there are teams for different games and sports so you can join them. Labs, classrooms, and library are pretty good.

Our college is good, and placement you will get just by maintaining your CGPA.

Infrastructure: Hostel infrastructure is not very good. Because of common bathrooms, many girls suffer from UTIs, and even the rooms are too small. I'm paying around Rs. 70,000 for the room alone, that too a non-AC room, and it's too small, and you won't get a flat and bed, it's mostly bunk beds, which are comfortable.

Decent college to consider.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is of good quality with up-to-date computers and air-conditioned labs. Quality of food is highly dependent on personal taste since some like it and some don't, but it is decent for the most part. Big grounds are here for sports, and there are ample opportunities for playing games in daily life, and even in college events. However, one major limitation is the very strict in-time rules followed on campus by 6:00 PM and within hostel by 9:00 PM (for boys), while it is 8:00 PM (for gi...

Review of Vellore Institute of Technology - Chennai Campus.

Infrastructure: The course is industry-relevant, and the hostel is well maintained. For the boys' hostel, there are 4 hostel blocks: A, C, D1, and D2. In these hostels, there are 3 types of rooms available, which are 2-bed, 4-bed, and finally six-bed rooms. There are also four types of mess: veg, non-veg, special, and food park. As of now food park is only for boys and girls have only the first three meal options

VIT may be the last option, but it can be the first option among private universities.

Infrastructure: Hostel rooms are good, but the rules are not so good. The labs are average, and the infrastructure is good, I'll say, like a library, basketball court, etc. The mess is decent, the food is eatable, unlike other hostel messes. We have a health care centre which, honestly, no one likes, it is not very useful.

Very satisfied with all the things the college has been doing.

Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi will be cut off after 12:00 AM. Infrastructure of the older blocks is not so good but the newer blocks are upto the mark. The library is active upto 12:00 AM. Food is kind of good here. The availability of food is also pretty long on timings, so we can make time flexible for food.
