SCMC Pune Reviews & Ratings 2026 – Authentic Student Feedback

Admission: I really liked the mass communication course at SCMC. It covers everything we need to know, and the teachers are great. Some might have trouble explaining stuff, but most of them are good. They use powerpoint and videos to teach, which is cool. We also have to do internships after each semester for industry experience.

Placement: The placements are pretty good for advertising and PR students. Google even recruited some of us from our batch. But for journalism and audio-visual communication folks, the placements aren't as great. Some students did manage to get placed with Times of India and The Hindu, but they had to find those opportunities themselves.

Campus: SCMC has awesome facilities! The classrooms have projectors and PA systems. The screening rooms have amazing surround sound. They've got top-notch equipment and software in the photography studio, sound studio, shooting floor, and editing suite. Plus, the canteen serves good food and the hostel rooms are really nice.

Admission: The teachers were qualified, but not very helpful. There were too many students for the number of faculty members. They didn't give much support, and the college felt strict like an army school. The director wasn't very helpful for students who were struggling. They even gave detention for missing classes as a punishment.

Placement: The placements were okay for everyone, but a lot of students chose to go for further studies instead. There weren't many choices for placements, only a few companies came for hiring. In media, starting pay isn't great, but as you gain more experience, your salary goes up.

Campus: The labs and classrooms are pretty good, but the library space is lacking. The college isn't very big for the number of students. The area doesn't have many facilities. There's only one elevator to get to the college floor. There were around 150 students split into three batches.

Admission: The classes at our college are top-notch. We learn AdWords from industry pros, do creative stuff like visual communication, and study subjects like world history, math, literature, and corporate etiquette. On top of that, we also get to dive into journalism, editing, film, photography, public relations, and copywriting. It's a really enriching experience, but I won't lie - it can get pretty tiring sometimes.

Placement: The college has awesome placement opportunities. We got a lot of industry experience from our internships, so we already had good connections. Companies like Redifussion and Rickshaw advertising agency were interested in us. Even Google came to campus to recruit students. It was a great chance to kickstart our careers!

Campus: The campus is a bit small with just two floors, but they've got everything we need for film classes. There are cool video rooms, labs with DSLR cameras, Mac computers for editing, and cozy classrooms with great sound. Maybe another elevator would be nice, but the daily race for a spot in the lift is kind of fun in its own way.

Admission: The teachers here are really helpful and know their stuff. They teach well and give us practical assignments. You gotta maintain a decent CGPA to move on to the next year. Exams aren't too hard if you attend classes regularly. Since this is a media college, you gotta be good at writing. But don't worry if you're not, they offer a course to help you learn. Overall, it's pretty easy to do well if you put in the effort.

Placement: I'm part of the first batch of the B.A. in mass media course from 2024-2028 at this college. Before, they offered B.A. and BBA in media as one course, but now they split it. The highest package offered so far is 10 LPA. The college started offering this course from this year, and it's been great so far!

Campus: The Wi-Fi here is awesome it's fast and works everywhere on campus and in the hostel. The library has a bunch of books on different stuff like movies, directors, economics, and fiction. Hostel food is pretty good, we get four meals a day. And there are cool games like pool, carrom, chess, badminton, basketball, and table tennis to keep us entertained.

Admission: The pass rate is about 40%. Exams aren't too hard. They focus on real-world skills, so if you understand the material, you can do well. It's a chance to show what you've learned during the semester.

Placement: I love studying Journalism because it opens up doors to roles like Journalist, Editor, and Copywriter. Our college has great ties with companies like The Glitch, NDTV, Times Now, Filtercopy, Zomato, SportsTiger, and Indigo. They offer lots of internships, which is awesome because it helps us gain real-world experience. The connections with these companies are really strong, so we get good opportunities for placements.

Admission: We had a mix of teachers from the college and outside experts who shared their experiences with us on campus. They used projectors and case studies for teaching. Sometimes, they showed us videos about certain topics. We had a lot of subjects, but I'm happy we did because it makes working in the industry easier now. Thanks to learning about different subjects, I feel more prepared.

Placement: I think the college could improve in getting companies for on-campus placements. It was great that Google came for our batch, but not all batches had that chance. To get internships, we had to meet a specific requirement. If you did, you could get an internship.
