Admission: The teachers at this college are super nice and really helpful. They always support us students. There are plenty of teachers, and they're all awesome. The exams are pretty straightforward with two class tests before the main ones. If you struggle with the tests, they offer extra help to make sure you pass.
Placement: The placement department in our college is really great. They helped us get ready for internships and kept us informed about job opportunities. They also provided training and connected us with tech communities. This made it easier to find jobs outside of campus through their network. It's a big help for students who didn't get placed directly through the college.
Campus: There were lots of fun activities to do both inside and outside, like chess, carrom, badminton, cricket, volleyball, and more. Plus, there were tons of books and resources available for us students like encyclopedias, reference articles, black books, and newspapers. It was awesome!

Admission: The teachers here are super helpful, seriously. They're always there to support you. Having great teachers is key to succeeding in college. With their guidance, students can achieve anything.
Placement: The college has a student placement rate of 70%, which is great. The fees range from 1.5 Lacs to the highest possible amount, which is a bit expensive. Unfortunately, the college doesn't provide any internships. They mainly focus on getting money by inviting students from other institutions to conduct seminars. It would be nice if they offered more diverse roles for students.
Campus: The Wi-Fi and computer labs at my college are good. The canteen is nice too. I'm in the IT department, so I can only speak for that. I'm not sure about the facilities in other departments. My friend mentioned that they might be decent, but I can't say for sure.

Admission: The teachers here are really great they focus more on practical stuff which is cool. But sometimes there are too many assignments and write-ups. It would be nice if they cut down on those a bit. They believe in learning Chemistry on our own rather than spoon-feeding us, which is fair. Our university follows DHBSU curriculum, so all our academic activities are based on that. The exams are pretty tough though, with questions straight out of reference books.
Placement: Placement opportunities vary depending on your course. For our stream, the college sets up placements. Big companies like IKS Health, Cipla, and Dr. Reddy hire students. Salaries can be anywhere from 20 to 35k Rs, depending on the role. Many students focus on competitive exams to land good jobs. During summer and winter breaks, lots of companies offer internships with decent pay, but some are unpaid.
Campus: The college has great facilities like a gym, air-conditioned classrooms, and well-equipped labs with all the tools and chemicals we need. The library is big, but it can get noisy sometimes. The hostel is super secure with CCTV cameras everywhere and a strict warden. We just have to fill out a slip when we check in or out. They also provide first aid kits and fire alarms for safety.

Admission: The teachers at this college are really helpful, and they teach well too. There's a mix of new and experienced faculty members. The experienced ones have taught at different colleges and they're great at teaching. The new teachers actually got their MS degrees from this college.
Placement: I really liked how the college helped students get jobs in different companies, both in India and abroad. The highest package was in 2015, while the lowest was in 2012. On average, students get around 3.5 lakhs per year. It's cool to see that a lot of students end up working at TCS after graduating.
Campus: The college buildings look really old both inside and outside. The classrooms are spacious, but some rooms don't have fans that work. Unfortunately, there's no canteen on campus. On the bright side, the library is huge and great for studying. Plus, the college has Wi-Fi, which is a big plus for students.

Admission: The teachers are super knowledgeable and always ready to help out with any questions, no matter how small. The classes are perfect for anyone into accounting, tax, or auditing. You'll go through 6 semesters, and getting in is a breeze.
Placement: I'm studying B.Com at this college. They have great placements in companies like Deloitte, TCS, and more. Lots of students get internships and jobs through the Sydenham placement cell. You can get roles in accounting, taxation, auditing, and other areas.
Campus: The college has awesome facilities like libraries, labs, air-conditioned classrooms, canteens, stationery shops, and a gym. They also organize sports competitions and events like brouhaha and jalosh.

Admission: The teachers at Sydenham College really know their stuff. They teach us practical stuff along with theories. We get hands-on experience in real situations which is cool. The exams are tough, but we get our grades in our diary app. It's a good way to learn.
Placement: I'm really impressed with the placement opportunities at this college. Companies like Deloitte, KPMG, Tata Consultancy, SnuckWorks, Trident, Godrej, and JLL are offering great packages. The average salary is around 3 lakhs but can go up to 9 lakhs. Last year, JLL and Neilson offered 5 lakh packages, while Godrej offered 7 lakhs. It's exciting to see such good options for students here.
Campus: The college has a library, an online room, and they just got Wi-Fi, but it's not working perfectly yet. There's a canteen with lots of food choices, and JS Hall is a hit with Sydenham College students. Plus, they've got a sports committee and other student groups too.

Reviewed On 18 Aug, 2025
Admission: The teachers here aren't great. They don't know much about what they're teaching. The teaching is just okay, and the course plan is not good. There's no head of the department, so no one listens to your problems with how things are run. Taking this course won't help you get a job in bioinformatics.
Placement: I studied bioinformatics at this college. There are no placements available for our batch. The course started in 2022, but the college doesn't have laptops or the software we need. We struggle to find classrooms for our classes because the department doesn't have proper facilities. No companies hire students from this course, and we don't get any internships through the college. If you want an internship, you have to look for workshops or training programs outside of college.
Campus: The classrooms don't have computers or good internet, even though they charge for computer classes. They're not clean or well-kept. Plus, there's no canteen on campus.

Admission: The faculty here is really nice. They're all so supportive and well-educated. The professors are cool, but you gotta reach out to them if you wanna learn. They won't chase you down to teach you stuff.
Placement: I spent 3 years at this college, and there's no placement support here. No students from the 3 batches I've been in got any job offers. It's a bummer.
Campus: The college was built during British rule and it seems like it hasn't been updated since then. It feels more like a museum than a college. There are 3 really big floors, so big that you'd need a lift to move between them. Sadly, the lift in the college doesn't work.

Admission: I really like the college's faculty. They're super helpful and the course curriculum is awesome. It not only helps us learn but also gets us ready for the real world. It's a really good place overall.
Placement: Lots of big companies come to our college for placements, like Times of India, PwC, KPMG, Deloitte, State Bank of India, and Trident. About half of the students usually get placement offers. The college also offers internships, and we can intern with companies like TCS. It's a great opportunity to get real-world experience before graduating.
Campus: The college has lots of nice classrooms that are air-conditioned and well-lit with fans. They also have a cool auditorium, library, and gym. But there's no hostel, so you gotta find your own place to stay.

Admission: The teachers at the college aren't the best, but most of them are really helpful. They also focus on extracurricular activities, which is great for students to develop in different areas. The exams at the college are not too hard, they're just at a moderate level.
Placement: I heard that almost half of the students got jobs. Every January, we have about 30 companies coming to our college. Some big ones like KPMG and SBI TRIDENT come too. The average salary for those who get hired is around 3.5 LPA. Sydenham College is famous for its placements.
Campus: The college buildings are not great. There's just one old building that gives off a spooky vibe. We have a small Gymkhana with carrom, chess, and table tennis. The library is quiet and perfect for studying long hours.
