campus has a basic but functional setup. Classrooms are average—some well-maintained, others a bit outdated. Labs are usable but lack advanced equipment for hands-on learning. Library has decent resources but limited seating and digital access. Sports and recreation facilities exist but are minimal. Overall, infrastructure supports studies adequately but leaves room for improvement.
The academic environment here is a mixed bag. Professors are knowledgeable but teaching styles vary widely—some are inspiring, others just go through slides. The curriculum covers basics well but lacks real-world application and innovation. Assignments and exams feel routine rather than challenging. Overall, you learn the essentials, but expect to push yourself if you want deeper understanding.
Placements here feel like a lottery might get lucky, but most of us end up hunting on our own. Few companies visit, and packages are modest. The training sessions are often repeating old content. Networking opportunities are limited, so real exposure depends on your personal efforts. Not ideal if placements are your priority.bad placements
Honestly, paying this much feels more like an investment in patience than education. The fees don’t match the facilities, learning resources, or placement opportunities. You end up spending extra on basics they should provide. Could be okay if budget is tight, but don’t expect a return that feels worth it.
The campus buzzes with occasional energy, but events feel sparse and repetitive. Cafeteria chatter and small clubs bring life, yet social activities often lack organization. Friendships form naturally, but nightlife and hangout spots are limited. It’s decent for those who enjoy quiet, self-driven college life, though excitement is modest.
Not all classrooms are covered by Wi-Fi, so sometimes it feels like going to school, but the library is well-maintained, and it's quiet to study there. Hostel facilities are good – the rooms are fine, but the quality of food in the mess can be better. Nevertheless, the medical facility is good, and there is a proper sports complex for students.
The teaching method is student-teacher interaction, which eases a lot in learning the basics of management subjects. The syllabus is work-based and thus, it is very effective in preparing the students for the industry. Examination is not very easy, and the passing grade is 33. The attendance policy is very strict (75% mandatory).
Almost 70 percent of the students in our batch were able to get job offers through on–campus recruitment drives. The highest salary package was a bit more than ₹40 LPA, the average package was approximately ₹6–7 LPA, and the lowest package was reported to be around ₹3–4 LPA. The exact profiles and performances of the students determined these figures.
The MBA block is also well-maintained with large-sized classrooms, seminar halls, and projectors. There is a central library with a good collection of management books, journals, and e-resources. Wi-Fi connectivity is available throughout the campus, and computer labs are adequately equipped for analytics and research work.
The classes are interactive, and concepts are taught in a simple to understand manner. Exams are slightly challenging, but if you regularly attend classes, they become very easy. The overall pass percentage is very high, and students achieve actual confidence for their profession.
Even average academics students get good opportunities. The top package of our batch went beyond ₹12 LPA, and the average package is still around ₹5–6 LPA. Large companies such as Deloitte, KPMG, HDFC Life, ICICI Prudential, Axis Bank, and Tech Mahindra visit frequently for placement. Many students receive jobs like management trainee, business analyst, and relationship manager.
The college campus is so big and management students have their own separate block. We have a common library for all students. The campus has everything like air conditioned classes, good library, canteen, hostels and sports ground.
The professors are all experience in their field as they are people with 10 plus year experience in corporate and even we have guest faculties which are industrial leaders. The course is now as per NEP which is latest.
The upes have good corporate connection due to well established alumni base. Our average CTC is around 12 lakh per annum which is quite good. But in summer internship, students find it difficult to get good sip from campus.
We have the first class Infrastucture in the City. Our college building is well updated and equipped with all the facilities inside the Campus. We have air conditioned classrooms with projectors, fully resources Library, Labs and grounds.
The mba course is designed with Market scenerio. The professors are from top Corporate sectors and industry experts. Apart from the classrooms lectures we have Filed visits and industry visites in every term to gain practical knowledge as well.
Our placement drive is one of the best in Uttarakhand. Companies from various sector came for recruitment and offer different roles. Most of the student secured placements from the college. But finding summer internship is hard in the college.
All of the college Infrastructures are well maintained. The classrooms are equiped with Projectors and AC. Library is full of resources, Societies have their own offices, The Garden is well maintained with greenery.
We have the top class faculty of India who are industry experts, They help us a lot apart from the course curriculum like Case competitions helps, research paper help. We have Industry visit in all semesters as well to see the Market.
We have a strong Alumni base so we got Companies from diverse fields for the Campus Placements, The highest CTC is more than 30 lakh but the average is somewhat between 10 to 12 lakh per annum and some students dont get placements so they go for off campus.
Campus is well equipped with modern classrooms libraries, and good study places. There are provisions for e-learning but finance labs or trading floors are not available. Infrastructure is very good but finance technology access is nillll
The course is theory-based, with a focus on accounting, taxation, and business law. There are no case studiespractical applications, or financial modeling. Students need to find industry-specific information through finance boot camps and online courses
Career opportunities are mostly in entry-level accounting, taxation, and auditing. Not much exposure to investment banking, equity research, or fintech careers. Candidates who need well-paying finance roles need CFA, CPA, or investment training
The fee structure is in the higher range for the exposure earned. ROI may not be satisfactory if students do only classroom studies. Suitable for students who want to pursue MCom, MBA or government exams post-BCom
Decent student interaction, clubs, and networking activities. Finance students have to search for external competitions,l cFA societies, or fintech workshops for enhanced industry exposure. Cultural events and fests are well-managed
The college has two buildings .The btech campus is good .ours isn't that good.There is need of improvement so that we will also feel good.The college has recently added domino's in the college which is good.
I am pursuing bba degree and the domain is digital business. Few of the faculty are very good and few are bad. Placement is not that good in our course.I have heard from few the seniors in our course that the Placement is not that good.
The placement is good in mba degree not in our course .As per heard from the senior the placement is not that good.Many of the senior told me about this and I'm worried too.But let's see what will be the outcome.
It is not values for money as we have 13 lakh for bba course.Although the library is good for studying .But if we will consider values for money for ours it is not upto the mark.Few of the faculty are good few are not.
We saw the btech campus and came here .Our campus is not good .So that the campus life is also not that good.It has been 2 year we haven't done anything as such exciting. If any event also happens it happens in btech campus.
Yes, it has almost all the necessary infrastructure, facilities and Equipment but no smart boards and are not well maintained. Living spaces are clean and food hygienic. The furniture is not well maintained.
Academically for MBA finance, it is average. As they don't have enough faculties, the course is not designed according to real-life business prospects I.e they teach theoretically, do not teach us linking to real-life business case studies and do not take us to the labs made for the finance students. They do not make us job-ready.
In MBA Finance, the top 10% of students are placed, but that too in companies that have no existence or startups. Only 2 other good companies came for MBA Finance students, Infosys and Deloitte. However, the profile was not core finance; it was either sales or technology-based with a package of approximately 7-8 lakhs ctc. No core domain companies are coming to the campus. MBA Oil and gas got the highest package offered which is 25 lakhs. Some of the faculties are supportive.
No value for money as on placement you won't be getting even a return on investment in 1 year. Academics and benefits are also not value for money. They will promise you to give Coursera, a minor course, and Design your degree but won't provide one in the entire 2 years. They will say that the license is expired. We are paying for all this but won't be getting all the things. The cost of MBA Finance per year is Rs. 8-9 Lakh Approximately.
The location is scenic but in the middle of the forest, so all the facilities are not available, outside the campus is not safe at night due to the forest area. The campus can handle emergencies. Faculties and students are supportive.
If you are a localite, wants to enjoy college life amidst the mountains then it would be a perfect match but academically it won't.
Infrastructure is amazing. Each and every facility is provided. Classrooms are well managed and designed. Campus is so cool. Al the classrooms have smart board, laboratories are there, library is quite huge where you can find every book you want. Hostel is top notch, rooms are quite big and spacious
I am. Studying BBA (Business digital Marketing) The quality of teaching is quite good. Professors are knowledgeable and experienced, and they make efforts to explain concepts clearly. However, Some subjects require additional self-study, but overall, the faculty is supportive and encourages analytical thinking.Yes, the curriculum is well-structured, with theory and practical aspects accurately handled and very well managed.

Hello
If you are interested in Developmental and Labour Studies for CUET PG, you do not have to choose the Life Science subject. CUET PG has a separate paper for this course. The subject you need to select is Development and Labour Studies itself. It falls under the Humanities section and has its own exam paper.
So your preparation and exam will be based only on this subject, not on Life Sciences. This makes the exam easier because you only study topics related to society, work, labour rights, and development. Choosing the correct subject paper will increase your chances of getting admission in the PG course you want.
Hello Sarthak,
Yes, you can update your category during the UPTEC/UPCET (UPTAC) counselling, but only if you have a valid OBC (NCL) certificate of Uttar Pradesh .
The category you filled in JEE Main does not affect your UPTAC counselling.
UPTAC uses the category mentioned during counselling , not the JEE form.
If you belong to OBC (NCL) category in Uttar Pradesh and you have a valid UP-state OBC certificate , then you can choose OBC while registering for UPTAC counselling.
Your OBC certificate must be issued by UP authorities and must be valid for the current admission year .
So yes, you can select OBC in UPTAC counselling even if you selected General in JEE Main, as long as you have the proper certificate.
If your certificate is not ready, get it issued as soon as possible because you will need to upload it during counselling.
Hope it helps !
Hey there,
The number on the Aadhar card remains the same even after the update, so you can use your old Aadhar card for now. It won't cause any problem. The information you will provide will be verified through the UIDAI online. If the Aadhar has been updated, it will be shown online, but to get it physically, it can take time.
Hope it helps!!!
