Remarks

I really love the environment and the people of this place. The faculties from different universities as well as from this university were so kind and all the events and activities I took part in were amazing.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course structure is well organised as compared to any other regular college. The criteria was the same and the subject taught were also somehow similar to the MBA program offered in a regular college. Although the classes were held occasionally still the subjects were easy and simple.

Placement Experience

Yes, we too were given an opportunity to sit for the placement and still the placement portal is active as the college promotes the students whether pursuing distance learning or regular scholar the placement cell was open for all the students. And many of my classmates got into good organizations like HCL, ICICI prudential, etc earning a handsome salary.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The MBA fee in distance learning is quite less as compared to the regular one the total cost I invested was someway to be around Rs 24,925/-. And the best part was even though my medium of studying was distance but still the facilities and all the perks enjoyed by the regular students were given to us too.

Campus Life

4.5

The students learning from distance education also could avail in certain types of extracurricular activities and also were allowed to access the library and other important elements of the college. Even though we were encouraged to take part in various sports and cultural events.

Admission

As I was working but I wanted to pursue my studies further, therefore without interrupting my daily schedule of working I applied here in MBA course. Before that I qualified my CAT exam and Hence, through the merit list it was confirmed that I was finally a part of MBA program .

Faculty

The professors were good and polite and most of the time they were guest lecturers from different university. Their teaching was well structured as well as friendly in this way we were always able to comprehend their lectures easily even though the classes were not held regularly.

Let your Light Shine

Likes

The most liked things in my college is the college atmosphere which takes us to a heavenly feel. The environment is very silent when we visit in morning time when the students are in class.
The next thing I like the most is the professors in the college. Each and everyone is a friendly teachers where they not only help us in subjects and class related things but also guide us in our future career plans.
I like the way they treat the students in the college. They'll provide more liberty to the students but that doesn't affect them because the students too will be in their limits of liberty. So this is a good habit developed by the college.

Dislikes

There is nothing particular that I don't like. Sometimes I feel that they'll conduct some events where there might not chances to the deserving students.
There is some students gang where they take care of everything in the college by themselves without giving chances to deserving students.

Placement Experience:

From the final year which means 5th and 6th semester for undergraduate students and 3rd and 4th semester for Post graduate students, it is eligible for them to attend the campus placements. In my MBA, we'll be eligible for next semester to attend the placements. But for undergraduate students, they might have got chances now to attend the placements. The companies visited for us when I was in Undergraduate in the same Loyola College are Deloitte, Accenture, Standard Chartered, Goldman Sachs, RR Donneley, Bank of America, Sutherland, Infosys, Cognizant, TCS, Equinty, Turing, and many more small companies also came. The overall placed students numbers were almost more than 300 among the final year students alone in the college which is a great achievement. The highest package offered for us is ?700000 from Goldman Sachs and the average package we received is ?300000 which is from all the small companies. The percentage of placed students in our college is almost 85% from our batch alone. So we hope that in this batch there might be more than 90%. The reason for 85% in our batch is most of the students has moved for higher studies. My plan after getting degree is to get a senior most position in any of the big company and grow in my career.

My admission was on a merit basis. College prepares a merit list on the basis of past academic record, specifically the graduation marks. Shortlisted students are invited for the counseling process, which more or less includes the document verification process.
