Admission: The teachers here are really experienced and super helpful. The guest lecturers they bring in are some of the best in Pune. The ratio of students to teachers is pretty good, with about 40 students for every 2 teachers in theory classes and 40 students for every 4 teachers in practical classes. But we don't get a lot of exposure to the industry, so we have to focus on developing ourselves.

Placement: In architecture, the college doesn't arrange placements, but the professors help by recommending good firms. They also guide you on internships and how to apply. Once you graduate, you're on your own to find a job.

Campus: The college has everything you need for your course. The campus is big with an auditorium. The classrooms and other areas are good. The canteen serves tasty food. The classrooms can fit about 60 students and have all the necessary facilities like projector screens, mics, and speakers.

Admission: We've got a bunch of professors at our college  maybe around 80100 of them. They're mostly Ph.D. holders in different fields. We've got a mix of experienced and younger faculty, which keeps things fresh in our architecture classes. All the lectures are about architecture stuff, and the teachers who specialize in certain subjects have Masters degrees too. They always push us to think in new and better ways.

Placement: Placements aren't offered at our college since our field doesn't do that. Instead, they organized orientations to help us with interviews and professional skills. The college doesn't provide internship opportunities, so we have to find our own if we want to do one.

Campus: I live in the college hostel. The rooms are tiny and the food isn't great. There aren't many seats available in the hostel, and they're mostly taken by senior girls. But there are plenty of other private hostels or PGs in the area that are way better. Most girls opt for private hostels instead.

Around 35% of students pass, but the curriculum prepares us well for the industry. We learn a lot of practical stuff here.

Admission: I studied at BNCA for 5 years for my B.Arch degree. After that, I did a 2-year post-grad course in M.Arch. At BNCA, they offer different M.Arch courses like landscape architecture, environmental architecture, and digital architecture. They keep us informed about what's new in the architecture world.

Placement: The teachers here are really good at helping us find internships. They share a bunch of great architects with us. The college doesn't organize placements for architecture students, but the professors will recommend some cool firms to apply to. Once we finish our studies, it's up to us to find a job.

Campus: The teachers at our college really know their stuff and have tons of experience. They make sure we get to see things in action when we need to. The college buildings are awesome, and the teachers are top-notch. We've got everything we need here, like a library, seminar hall, labs, and nice cool classrooms. And hey, the girls can stay in the hostel if they want. Oh, and there's a canteen on campus too.

Admission: The teachers here are super friendly and really know their stuff. They've got tons of experience and always make sure we understand everything. The course follows the university's syllabus, so it's right on track. The semester exams aren't too tough either, and they're set by the university.

Placement: In the architecture course here, placements aren't guaranteed like in other programs. Your portfolio is key to landing a job. This college really helps you build your portfolio. After graduation, you can work as an architect, take on projects, or even work for a practicing architect.

Campus: The college has awesome facilities for students like labs, library, classrooms, and playground. We can join fun activities like art, dance, social work, and sports. There are cool competitions like NASA to take part in. The hostel serves good food and there's a nice canteen. Plus, we have medical help and sports options. It's great!

Admission: The teachers and classes are great here, and college life is fun. It's a good place to grow as a person. You'll notice a difference from when you start to when you finish. I feel more confident and independent now.

Placement: This college is all about architecture. They offer advice and connections, but there's no official placement support. I don't think architecture colleges really do placements anyway. Besides that, it's definitely worth the tuition. I had an awesome college experience here.

Campus: The campus used to be meh, but since they moved everything around, it's way better now. The cafeteria, chill spots, auditorium, and outdoor areas have all improved a ton. It's a cool, laid-back place with lots of fun stuff going on all the time.

Admission: The teachers here are amazing, some of the best around. We've got famous architects coming in as visiting faculty too. The teaching is mostly hands-on, which is great. They organize a lot of workshops and guest lectures to give us a lot of exposure. We get to learn from top architects from all over the world. They even take us on tours to study foreign architecture. Each class has around 40 students, and the faculty-student ratio for design lectures is 1:10.

Placement: After you graduate from the Architecture program, you'll need to look for your own job since there aren't any placements provided. But don't worry, the faculty members are super helpful when it comes to finding internships. They'll give you a list of good architects and support you throughout the whole internship process.

Campus: The college has awesome facilities for students like digital labs, robotics, and Armtec. They also have Wi-Fi, CCTV, and cool classrooms with good furniture. The canteen food is really good too. The hostel is not on campus but pretty close by.

Admission: The teachers here are all post grads and pros. A lot of them even went to this college. They teach us well. The course is tough and can be stressful. The teachers get strict, but it's for our benefit in the end.

Placement: At BNCA, the teachers are super helpful in preparing us for internships. They guide us on making a strong CV to land an internship at a company we like. The focus here isn't on placements like other architecture colleges. The system is all about setting us up for success in getting internships on our own terms.

Campus: There are plenty of girls' hostels around the area, divided into different lanes like lane no.1 and lane no.2. The college hostel is a bit small. As an architecture student, having a room with enough space is important, but there are other hostels nearby that can provide that.
