Admission: The teachers make the courses easy to understand and take us on a 3-4 day visit to IT companies. The teaching is okay, but it's pretty old-school. Overall, we learn the basics well.
Placement: The arts and science courses don't have placements, but they have a job fair on campus every year. Around 20 companies show up. It's free for students at the college, but students from other colleges have to pay a small fee to attend.
Campus: The campus is nice and located in a semi-urban area. The classrooms are good, but the canteen needs some work. It would be great to have more food options, as the current selection is limited and not very tasty. Adding some mini canteens could help improve this.

Admission: The teachers here really know their stuff and are super helpful. They work hard to help you land a job at top companies. The curriculum is solid, setting you up for success in the job market.
Placement: In 2017, most students found jobs either on-campus or off-campus. The highest salary offered was around 12 lakhs per year, while the lowest was about 3 lakhs per year. Companies like TCS, Wipro, Accenture, and Nagarro hired students for roles like SDE and Data Analyst. Not many students got internships, but almost everyone landed a job during placements.
Campus: The Wi-Fi works great here, so no issues with internet connection. The labs are in good shape, classrooms are comfy, and the library has tons of books. You can find almost every sport on campus, and the canteen is awesome. Overall, the classrooms have nice seating too.

Admission: The teachers in our college only have M.Sc degrees, no Ph.Ds. They are just a few years older than us and don't teach well. They seem to be here just to kill time. Their notes and study materials are not clear, so we have to learn on our own. The quality of education here is really bad compared to other colleges.
Placement: The placement scene at our college is pretty bad. I've never seen any good placements happening for B.Sc agriculture students.
Campus: The college facilities are not great. The hostel is the worst I've seen. Water facilities are not good, and we only get hot water once. The food is terrible, even street food is better. The fees are high, but there are no auto services to go out. No labs or outdoor classes for agriculture. I don't recommend this college for B.Sc agriculture.

Admission: The best part about my college was definitely the teachers. They were really helpful, super smart, and knew their stuff. They taught well, but kinda used old-school methods. We had one teacher for every 69 students, with a good mix of male and female teachers. Every year, we got to go on a field trip to see how things work in real life.
Placement: The college claims to organize job fairs every year for the past three years, but only a few students actually land jobs. Some students attend interviews and get selected, but then never receive the offer letters. It seems like the placements are not as real as they claim. The job fair usually happens in the first week of February each year.
Campus: The college doesn't have Wi-Fi for students, but we do have good labs, tech support, enough classrooms, and a cool library. Medical facilities are lacking though. Sports events are great, and we even host Anna University matches. However, the hostel and canteen food aren't that good.

Admission: The teachers are really nice and know their stuff well. We go through 8 semesters here. We get weekends off on Saturday and Sunday. Classes start at 9:30 am, so make sure you're there for attendance. We finish at 4:30 pm, but as Mechanical Engineers, we need to get permission from our HOD before leaving.
Placement: Getting a job here was tough without campus interviews. We had to find placements off-campus. It was a struggle, especially for Mechanical Engineers. They only got around Rs8,000 salary. To improve your chances, focus on learning Design software in the 3rd year. It's up to you to land your dream job.
Campus: Our university has a big campus with a nice garden. It's in a good location and easy to get to. The classrooms are clean and we had fun playing there. The food isn't great, but there's a canteen. We have labs and Wi-Fi, which is cool. Just be careful if you're living on campus because there are snakes and monkeys around.

Admission: The teachers at this college really know their stuff. They explain things in a way that's easy to understand. They get us ready for the industry. Just gotta listen to what they say and follow their lead.
Placement: Our college offers roles like application development associate, technical trainee, and support engineer. Companies come here to recruit students based on what they need. The college prepares us really well for placements, so we feel confident going into interviews.
Campus: I really like this college because they offer top-notch education. The classrooms, labs, and library are all great. The hostel is comfortable and has everything you need. It's also conveniently located near transportation for easy travel. Overall, it's a great place to study.

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful. They explain things really well and make it easy to understand. It's nice how friendly everyone is students and staff get along great. The staff have real-world experience in different industries and companies. Plus, they give cool ideas for our final year project.
Placement: Lots of students land jobs at companies like TVS, Mahindra, Royal Enfield, and Yamaha. They come to hire students for good positions. Mechanical companies also visit and pay well.
Campus: The Wi-Fi here works all the time, which is great. They have labs for different courses that are well-maintained. We have playgrounds and sports events every year. The buildings are nice, and there's food in the canteen too.

Admission: The teachers here know their stuff, but they weren't very helpful. Some are great at teaching, while others struggle. A lot of students didn't do well in math. The course content isn't practical, and we didn't get to see much real-world stuff.
Placement: Our seniors got jobs in small companies, and my friend did too. Around 10% of students got placed. Companies like Amazon, TCS, and BPOs come for placements. Students get roles like network monitoring, software developer, HR, and customer care. Half of us got internships. The highest pay was Rs. 3000, the lowest was Rs. 2000, and the average was Rs. 1200. The highest job pay was Rs. 13,000, the lowest was Rs. 8000, and the average was Rs. 5000. The college helps with placements, but it depends on how well you do.
Campus: The college campus is really big with a couple of buildings that have four floors each. They have about 55 classrooms with two fans in each. Unfortunately, there's no Wi-Fi available, but they do have a big library. Medical facilities are not offered, and sports aren't really a big thing here. However, they do have a large computer lab which is great. The classrooms and labs are in good shape. The canteen serves food, but it's not good and can make you sick. They provide hostel accommodation for both boys and girls, and it's pretty spacious. Overall, I didn't have any problems with the college's infrastructure.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful. You gotta attend at least 65% of the classes or else you'll be fined Rs 5000.
Placement: I didn't see any placement help for undergrads here. But hey, most students find good jobs after getting their Master's degree.
Campus: The BCA department at PRIST University has great infrastructure and a good lab. The staff can be strict, but they're really helpful to students. The hostel is an option too. The food is free, but not that great. Each room in the hostel costs 25000 per semester and you'll be sharing with 2 other people.

Admission: The faculty here are not very qualified most of them are doing M.Tech here after B.Tech. But they are helpful and friendly. Their teaching methods are not great. They focus only on exam-related stuff and there are no fun activities. You have to go to all the classes. The student-teacher ratio is good, but I didn't get any real-world experience from the college or my classmates. The course content is not very useful.
Placement: The placement scene at my college is pretty bad. When our batch finishes, they bring in a few companies like Mindq (can't recall others) to offer jobs like tele caller or email support. It's not really worth it to do these jobs after getting an engineering degree.
Campus: The college has great facilities like high-speed Wi-Fi, air-conditioned labs, and a big library with lots of books. The MBA block even has a first aid facility. There are two groundsone for basketball and one for all activities. The food is awesome for South Indian folks, but others might find it hard to eat every day. The hostel is nice, but it's a 2 km walk to get to classes since there's no transport on campus. One downside is that after 8 pm, you can't buy anything because the stores close. The closest market is 5 km away, and I've had to deal with this issue a few times.
