Hi aspirant





Thanks for asking your query



Here are review of the college





Its a private autonomous university, meaning they can play with your life if you mess around. Many students are being given a year back due to attendance shortage in two subjects.

Faculty maybe great but again the crowd isnt that encouraging in terms of studies . Very few students are interested in research aspects or doing something of value. And the rules are as such that you cant actively take part in competitions and seminars outside on your interest during college time even if you do you will lose attendance so fests/seminars/paper presentation can only be done within 25% attendance because you have to maintain 75% attendance at any cost else youll get a year back or you might have to repeat the semester.

Rules are pretty strict youll feel like a school kid and its so annoying it ruins the whole vibe of being a university student. Rules like no loitering around, no siting at the canteen during class hours, No sports during free hours, Always wear ID card, Wear only formals during weekdays (if you wear jeans you are sent back home), If caught using mobile inside class Rs.1000 fine. Plus they have securities who think they are CRPF jawans doing duty and force you to follow all these rules.

The canteen food is overpriced and not at all worth it, worst part you cant leave the campus once you enter until 4 pm so you cant have good food. Not to mention Hostel is the worst in terms of food and rules. You cant enter the hostel after 7 pm. No music after 10 pm , Food is bad.

Youre in the middle of no where, the university is situated in a village, the nearest decent food outlet is at least 68 kms away. It pretty tough for the students to have a comfortable student life in the university.

Despite stating all these issues to the management they never try to make it better for the students because they are a new and growing university and they do not want a bad reputation.

Education wise if you can follow all these rules with a straight mind and tolerate all of it, and if you are genuinely interested you can really study well because there are few faculty who are amazing,pretty friendly, young and they understand all our problems and help us out personally and in class.

But as mentioned above the rules just kill the whole vibe and you get pretty frustrated and depressed after joining , sometimes the crowd isnt what you expected either so it takes a long time to get adjusted.

Dont get enthusiastic seeing the infrastructure, because thats the only good thing there. More like a very good looking mind prison.

A lot of emphasis is given to numbers maintaining 75% attendance, maintaining CGPA above 5, but nothing towards quality and research.

Hi,

Rules like compulsory 75% attendance, no mobile in class rooms, no sitting in cafe during class hours, descent dress code, not to roam unnecessary inside campus are quite good, welcomed and required for the student's academic performance. Why these points are considered negative about the university?
Opinion should be given in terms of facilities, teaching methods, faculty and safety of the students.
