Remarks

The campus is really great. If you are a hosteller, believe me it's gonna be the best time of your life. In casebof negative remarks. I think the authorities are way too much religious. Can't blame them because catholic churchnis running the college. Also in some rare situations ego clash between teachers and students were not deakt in a nice way.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Back in the days, we used to follow MG university curriculum. But now they have their own curriculum. Exams will be conducted by the college authorities. There will both internal and external valuation.

Placement Experience

Placements arebreally great. Companies like EY, TCS, MRF chosebthis college as their recruitment hub.The college authorities also helps us in preparing for the placement drive. I think our college provide interships. Unfortunately I don't know much about that.

College Events

This is a live campus. They celebrate onam, christmas, arts day, union day, college day.During onam and christmas we conduct certain competitions. Back in the days arts and sports day celebrations were lit.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Feasible free structure ( For aided courses).For an aided under graduate course the fee will be 3000/year.In case of a PG it'll be 4000/semester. But in case of self financing courses it'll be around 20000/semester

Fees and Financial Aid

There are many scholarship programs offered by government. Otherbthan thatbcollege also helps students who are having financial issues. It's offered by Saint Berchmans college's vincent de paul society. They sponser many students every year.

Campus Life

The labs are really advanced. They've got even a polymer and a plasma lab there.The mictobiology/biotechnology labs are also exceptional. Their sports teams are exceptional. Especially the basketball team. They also support arts, especially drama.

Hostel Facilities

Those Hostels were the best part of my college life. They've got 6 boys hostels and a ladies hostel. The rental charges will be around 10000-12000 per year. And the mess charges will be around 4000-5000 rupees per month. The infrastructure is great. I can vouch for that, because I've been to other hostels, and their hostels were the best

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

They've got a great alumni group. It's really active. The alumni Network and senior stufentsbare really helpful. The alumni association also contribute great firbthe well being of the college.The college ia like 90 years old so it's got a huge and effective alumny association.

Admission

I got admission through CAP( centralized allotment process) which was based on the 12th grade result. After being shortlisted in the merit list tgere was an interview (a simple one ). After that I got admission

Faculty

They're all experienced and are very keen about academics. But I afraid most of them follow the conventional method of teaching. In some rare cases thebego clash between students and teachers were not dealt in a nice way. Apart from this they've got a great potential when it comes to faculties.

Academic excellence in a beautiful campus

Likes

Academic excellence is there. 90 % of students are merit based admission, those who have achieved 90 and above percentage in 12 th grade. So there is high passing percentage.
Cultural programs are regularly conducted. Don't feel stressed out by studies

Dislikes

Sports activities are not regularly conducted or encouraged
Chemistry lab is not clean, chemicals are not kept correctly

Course Curriculum Overview:

My favourite subject is biology. I have applied for zoology course but unfortunately there is no seats available at that time, so I chose Botany which is also my favourite. The curriculum is perfect and prepares for real world. More practical sessions are needed. Every 6 months there will be semester exam. Which is not that much tough.
