Admission: The teachers at our college were super helpful. They knew their stuff and had post graduate degrees. Their teaching was top-notch. The course covered everything we needed to know, both theory and practical stuff. It really prepared us for the industry.

Placement: In our course, about 40% of us got jobs. The highest salary was 3.6 LPA, lowest was 2.4 LPA, and average was 3 LPA. Top companies hiring were Elante mall Chandigarh, Tommy Hilfiger, and Superfine Garments. Most of us got internships at Superfine Garments, Mala International, and Export House. We were offered roles as junior merchant assistants.

Campus: The campus had everything we needed - Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, a good library, and tasty food at the mess and canteen. We also had access to medical facilities, sports, and games. Basically, everything a student could ask for was right there on campus.

Admission: The faculty here are really helpful and friendly. They're always there to guide you, although their teaching style might not be the best. But hey, you can still ask for their advice when you need it. The teachers in all courses are great and really supportive. Plus, everyone is super polite to students.

Placement: The placement rate for B.Tech CSE isn't great. Only a few companies come for placements, and the packages they offer aren't that good. If you're thinking of joining this university, be ready to handle your placements or internships on your own. The management courses have better placement opportunities.

Campus: The university's infrastructure is really good. They have everything you need like Wi-Fi all over, labs, library, and even medical facilities. Plus, there's a cafeteria on campus and the hostel always has mess available. The hostels also have Wi-Fi. And there's a diverse mix of students on campus, so you'll meet people from all over the world. It's pretty cool!

Admission: The teachers here are okay. I'm not sure about the teachers in other courses. When I started, our course had a few issues. The teachers are young and full of energy. The course material is useful and prepares us well for the industry. I had to do some training as part of the course.

Placement: Around 30% of students landed jobs after graduation. The highest pay was 5 LPA, while the lowest was 3 LPA. Companies like Tommy Hilfiger and local businesses hired from our college. Almost all students did internships. Some got roles in SEO and SEM. Our MBA in digital marketing was unique to this university back then.

Campus: I really like the setup of our college. The classrooms, libraries, and buildings are all good. The facilities are awesome too. They even have a nurse on hand for medical help. The canteen is top-notch as well. It's cool because there are people from all over the world studying here. So, you get to meet lots of different folks from different countries.

Admission: The teachers here are pretty nice and know their stuff, but the way they teach could be better. The course content doesn't really match what we need in the real world. When it comes to exams, it kinda depends on your relationship with the teachers. If they're not feeling you, the exams can be tough. And the passing rate is around 35%.

Placement: Finding a job after college is tough here. Only about a third of students end up with a job. The highest salary offered was around 12 Lakhs per year, the lowest was around 3 Lakhs, and most students get around 6-7 Lakhs. Companies like Oceana Teach, Net Solutions, and Forte Web Solutions hire a lot from here. Many students also get internships at Eligo and Teach Bharat AI. The most common job students get is in web development.

Campus: The infrastructure is okay. The labs have old PCs, but the Wi-Fi is good inside. Outside, the Wi-Fi is not so great. The library has lots of books. Classrooms are fine, and hostels have everything you need. The canteen is big, but the food quality changes. There's a gym and sports gear for everyone.

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful and really know their stuff. They teach this course really well compared to others. They organize cool activities related to our studies. The semester exam is not too hard, so it's easy to pass. You only need to get 33 percent to pass. This course helps you get creative and learn a lot about investigating stuff like fingerprints and toxicology.

Placement: I was disappointed because there weren't any job placements after graduation. But they did offer internships for practical experience. Around 90% of students in the Bachelor of Forensic Science program get internships. In my course, we learn about different roles like forensic analyst, expert, and fingerprint analyst.

Campus: The department has good infrastructure and facilities compared to others. They have free Wi-Fi, labs, and a library. The classrooms have a beautiful view of Shimla. The hostel is nice too, with free Wi-Fi and hot water in winter. The food in the mess and canteen is good. The mess costs about 4,500 per month. The college organizes sports like volleyball, basketball, and badminton competitions every year on campus.

Admission: The teachers at our college really know their stuff and are super friendly. They go the extra mile to help us understand everything and make learning fun. The head of the department is always there when we need help with anything personal. It's a great place to study!

Placement: Our college is really well-organized and they keep things in check. I'm in the Fashion Designing batch and a lot of my classmates have landed jobs in places like Ludhiana, Mohali, and Chandigarh. The pay isn't super high, but it's decent around Rs. 15,000 to 45,000 per month.

Campus: The university is really well-organized. They have cameras everywhere to make sure everyone behaves well. The Wi-Fi is good and free for all students. The library is always clean and well-maintained. They're great for international students too, top-notch in education!

Admission: The course material is helpful. Computer science professors aren't great, but the others are better. Some computer science professors are qualified, but they struggle with teaching.

Placement: The placement cell on campus isn't very helpful. Our seniors had to find jobs on their own. Because our university is new, top companies don't come here for placements. It's tough for us to get internships because not everyone excels in their studies.

Campus: The Wi-Fi sucks in the hostel and around campus, but everything else is pretty good. The classrooms are big and nice. Students love sports, but the field is small because we're on a hill. There are some other problems, but they're working on fixing things.

Admission: The CSE department here isn't great. The HOD doesn't even have a PhD, and most of the teachers aren't qualified to be assistant professors. Their teaching skills are bad because they lack knowledge. Also, there's a lot of drama between the faculty, with the department split into two groups - those with the HOD and those against.

Placement: No companies came for placements, not even for computer science students. But one company did come from Chandigarh. They hired students, but for the first six months of training, there was no pay. After that, they offered a salary of Rs. 10,000 per month.

Campus: The Wi-Fi here is so slow, it's like using a 2G network. The labs have some useless systems, and most classrooms don't even have projectors. We don't have a playground, so there's not much for outdoor sports. The library isn't great either. The only sports option we have is a volleyball court. And don't get me started on the food in the college mess it's terrible.

Admission: The professors for all the different classes are really knowledgeable and have worked in the field. Some of them even come from other countries and bring fresh ideas to the table. It's great because they help us see what we can achieve in the future.

Placement: Andhra Pradesh Goal Shimla University is a great place to study. It's been around for 6 years and sits in the beautiful Shimla Hills. The campus is awesome and the teachers are really good. Plus, they have connections with lots of companies for job placements in different areas. It's the top university in the North!

Campus: The college has a great setup. The campus has Wi-Fi everywhere and the classrooms are updated with projectors. The labs are also well-equipped with internet access and everything we need for our studies. It's a good place for learning.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful, but sometimes they struggle to explain things clearly, especially when I ask about basic ideas compared to what's in the course. Most of them have a Masters degree, but they tend to focus more on following the syllabus rather than helping us develop skills and knowledge. When I took some government exams, I realized that there were topics I hadn't learned here, but my friend at a different college had covered them. Despite that, I've still found everything they've taught me useful so far.

Placement: The job placements are okay, but it's hard to find a job that matches our skills. The salary and job roles don't really fit what we're looking for. On average, companies offer around 10k as salary. We mostly see telecom and BPO companies coming for recruitment. When it comes to internships, we usually have to find them ourselves without getting paid or any help.

Campus: The college has Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, libraries, gym, and medical facilities. But some things could be better, like the lab equipment having errors, not many classes having projectors, and Wi-Fi not reaching everywhere. Plus, there aren't enough books for students. The medical facilities are good though, with first aid, a doctor, and a nurse always available. I really like the hostel here. It has its own bathroom with water all the time. But the food in the mess isn't great for the price we pay. There are two tuck-shops and a stationery shop on campus for snacks. I wish they had a barber shop and a place for hobbies too.
