Placements procedure is good as a lot of students get placed only 5-7 percentage of students are not placed because of their inefficiency or may be company does not find them as a good fit. Proactive students easily get placed.
College infrastructure, placements and goodwill in the market justify the expensive fees of the college but students expect something in return like good placements if we are not getting placed then what's the value of paying such big amount.
Many events happen in the campus like Trishna for MBA people and TRITHI for BBA folks these two are annual events that happen on large scale for 2-3 days and also various small events happen day to day.
