Remarks
The only negative remark about IGIT is the transportation to the college. It is situated in Dhenkanal and bank of Bramhani river. You have to reach Talcher station for going out. Which is nearly 16 kms from the college. There is no near by hospital for student emergency. In positive college introduced Ambulance facilities for students. There are many Dhabbas for foodies and two 3 star hotels in Talcher. You must call Autos for going out.

Fee Structure And Facilities
According to me the fee structure is very low for the standard. The college infrastructure is very good. Its just 34k. For hostel accommodation the yearly cost is 36k. So the total cost is 70k. The hostel will repay you if some amount is left. Hostel returned me 5k in 1st years. 4k in 2nd years. The hostel is hygienic. You will be provided with Washing machine and free Wifi. There is a Tv room. And there's a basketball and Badminton court in every hostel( except 1st years). The hostel food is very tasty, the only reason i love my hostel. The menu is made by students secretary. 7 days 7 different dishes. 6 times chicken items. In 3rd year only 2 students are to accommodate in one room. In 4th year you will get your one.
Fees and Financial Aid
Loan facilities are being provided by College SBI branch. And Scholarship like Prerana(60k) and a 10k scholarship are available for students with family yearly income less than 6 lakhs. They scholarship amount will be credited to your account before the commencement of next year's curriculum.

Alumni/Alumna
There's a Welcome function conducted by every branch seniors for junior students. The juniors also give farewells to the Seniors. And as i am currently in final year i have no proper knowledge about Alumni programs. But a Student from IGIT alumni got a better rank in Civil service examination 2019 and selected for IAS.
Admission
As IGIT is a Government Engineering college. Thus you need to give JEE main entrance exam. For a good branch your rank must be 1 lakh to 2.5 lakhs( for general category) and upto 6 lakhs (for SC-ST). I had a rank 1.28lakh and got a seat in Electrical Engg. The date for admission was 01-09-2016. I attended the orientation program and the next day i was instructed to fill a form for Hostel accommodation. For 1st year boys(if rank is below 2 lakhs) there's a hostel name "Akash Bhawan". Otherwise you have to stay outside college boundary. There are 3 houses for accommodation of students with score below 2 lakhs. For all girls there's a hostel, "Rohini Bhawan".The deposition of fees was through DD in 2016. But now you can deposit the amount by internet banking. Now I went to Akash Bhawan. A list of students was made by the hostel Superintendent according to the Jee main score. Every room can accommodate minimum 4 boys. For girl's it's 6 per room. After filling the form i need wait for the keys. Once I got keys the whole procedure ended.
