Through my Eyes

Dislikes

Excessive examinations conducted very frequently.
The day batch does not have consecutive classes and so multiple gaps in between stretch the day. It overall becomes very exhausting.

Fees and Financial Aid:

The fees per semester needs to be paid in 2 installments. The first installment of first semester is to be paid at the time of admission and is about 66800 rupees and the second installment is 35100 rupees. Every month exceeding the last date of fee payment induces a 300 rupee fine. This payment includes everything like admission, library, exams, etc. Certain scolarships are also available. There will probably not be a significant increment of fees in recent years.

THE SHADES OF SXC

The fee structure is a bit high. The total cost of this 3-year graduation degree was approximately 370000. We were not given any institutional scholarship. There is no scope for getting on-campus jobs for this course. However, we have an Entrepreneurship Development Cell run by our college where we can go and share our start-up ideas and thereby get funded to fulfil our dreams.

The course syllabus is based on CBCS curriculum. This is indeed helpful for students. It allows students to read what they find interesting other than their honours subject. This increases their broadness of mind.
