Remarks
Professors attitude isn't that amazing. Talking just about the extc faculty. It and CMPN faculty just seems lethargic, which the students feel is an easy going attitude. Atleast the extc profs ensure you are prepared right from start, and won't spring surprises on you towards the end of the semester when you should be studying
Course Curriculum Overview
They encourage you to participate in competitions, both tech and non tech. Course structure followed is given by MU. 2 internal exams, 1 practical exam, and 1 final exam is mandated. In addition to this, they might hve extra tests, mock practical exams and surprise tests
Placement Experience
No internships provided. They provided an opportunity for a paid internship once. Paid here means, you have to pay for it. It's as good as a training session. Placement is fairly good enough if you have average or above scores.
College Events
Prayas is a technical event particularly for freshers. Mosaic is a fun yet technical event for everyone. Annual functions are held which have themes. People can participate in dancing, singing, managing, organising etc.
Fee Structure And Facilities
Fee is approximately similar to other colleges. Was nearly 1L per year during my curriculum. It was increasing every year. In my final year they had introduced AC classes for one floor, and fee for them was pretty high, even though the ACs weren't being used
Fees and Financial Aid
Catholic quota is available. I suppose their fee is quite lower compared to others. Only came across a scholarship provided by Maharashtra government. Some people I knew applied for it. Loans can be taken by any bank for the institute
Campus Life
Gender ratio is approximately 40 females to 60 males. Parties are organised for annual functions like dj night, prom, farewell, freshers party etc. No partiality towards race, religion, gender, sexual orientation etc. You do well if you behave well and study enough to pass. Professors might not respect you if you are unwilling to even try
Hostel Facilities
No hostel facilities. There is a hostel available in the college opposite to SFIT though. It is a part of Francis colleges. St Francis Institute of management and research. Other buildings nearby give rooms on rent too if you don't prefer hostel. The hostel doesn't provide food
Alumni/Alumna
Seniors are really helpful. They're how you understand how to pass the system. They encourage you to participate in extra curricular activities too. They have an active Alumni network and organize frequent events. Pep talks are arranged for the students by Alumni too
Admission
Applied thourough merit list after giving JEE mains. Can apply via CET too. My preference was electronics, college didn't really matter to me. SFIT is average for extc. Maybe even below average. Course is good enough as it follows Mumbai University. Its not new technology, but basics are covered atleast. Extc professors are nice, but strict too. Too many assignments given
Faculty
Professors are well versed only with their ppts. Very few profs know something beyond it. You are expected to study the details by yourself. What they teach in lectures usually won't be there for exams. Best way to prepare for exams is to study past papers
