Admission:

I applied and got into amritha , rajagiri,St Teresas but non of these colleges had what my college had. Students have the freedom to express who they are in our campus and we are free to express how we feel about things and we are important to them . The peacefulness and atmosphere you get in cms, you would never get it anywhere else I can assure you that . Cms accepts all kinds of students regardless of their age , cast , and gender. The college is well reputed and the allotment starts sooner than all the other colleges. We have around five allotments and it's extremely hard to get into our college.
