Remarks

Name, Diversity and placement. Moreover, the best college in accordance to the score I had. The location drives a lot of good opportunities and gives more companies a viable choice to come to the college and hire placements. Diversity is one of those things that allows more inclusivity and broadening of the horizon

Course Curriculum Overview

We aren't provided enough industrial information. Moreover, we do not have a proper access to the book facilities. The faculties are good but it would have been better if we were in college. Moreover, the exposure is sometimes damped because of online classes and peer to peer learning is missing as well.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 1500000 per year

Placement Experience

3.5

We had a fair deal of companies visiting in the college campus as of now which included GEP, NESTLE, HSBC, JP MORGAN, MORGAN STANLEY and had a decent profiles for us.

College Events

We just had one event as of now, which was All Izz Well conducted online wherein we had lots of fun enjoying and becoming a part of a beautiful event that inculcates so much values and brings all the new people in the college together to work and make their class win.

Fees and Financial Aid

There isn't any scholarship that I got from my college. Apart from that, the loan I availed was from Canara Bank outside, it was also not availed by the college.

Campus Life

I have never visited to the college campus so can't comment about that. Although, the pictures and videos that I am aware of, it is quite big and has amazing infrastructure with lots of amenities and greenery. However, the hostel could have been better.

Hostel Facilities

I have opted for the hostel. It has 3 beds in each room with an attached washroom. I have not gone to college in person. All that I know is from the videos that I have seen and from what I read. Although, I find the space to be very less and it'll be quite difficult to live in there.

Hostel Fee: INR 163550 per year

Proud to be a part of claras college

Likes

The faculty members are highly qualified, approachable, and always willing to help with academic or research projects.
The campus infrastructure is excellent, featuring modern labs, a well-stocked library, and great sports facilities.
Placement opportunities are robust, with many top-tier companies visiting the campus for recruitment every year.

Dislikes

The hostel mess food lacks variety and quality, which is a frequent concern among resident students.
The placement department needs improvement as more core internship and job opportunities could be provided for undergraduate finance and BMS students
There is a lack of student-accessible Wi-Fi facilities across the campus premises, which makes online research difficult during college hours.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose the BMS (Bachelor of Management Studies) course primarily due to its highly comprehensive coverage of core business aspects specially human resources. The curriculum is well-structured to offer a deep understanding of corporate administration and strategic management, which strongly influenced my decision to enroll. Regarding the examination structure, semester exams are conducted systematically every six months, with internal assessments, assignments, and class presentations spread across the term. The timing is generally manageable, and the difficulty level ranges from moderate to high, effectively testing a student's analytical thinking and problem-solving capabilities rather than just memory recall.

Some departments here were really great like ETC and Mechanical with a unique culture going on
AIML and AIDS being new branches here are still doing their job very well for the students

Dislikes

The Students section not really tends to help ,as i saw many financially weak students facing the problem of 1 time payment fees and their request for part payments option is always rejected
Infrastructure is decent but in summer season the water coolers are just useless there ,no cooler will give you cold water

Course Curriculum Overview:

Some courses were to the point like IOT was well designed and DSA too with java programming side by side ,still as i said AIML is new branch and needs much enhancements ,the areas where they can improve was always practicals and labs those were always taken casual as i remember

I did apply for just one more college for safety as I was very sure of getting admission in KJ. I had heard a lot about KJ's HM so dreamt of it. I availed Gujarati quota for admission. Admission was a step-by-step process wherein we had to fill online forms and wait for merit lists to get displayed. After that, we were called to the institution for admission once we were selected. We required to have 7 plus pointers in Graduation for getting admission. There was an orientation program held by the institute for us....Read More

The selection criterion includes cut-off cleared scores of CAT/ XAT/ CMAT/ NMAT/ GMAT, a GD-PI round, past academic records and work experience if any. For CAT and XAT, the cut-off is usually 80-85%ile; for GMAT, the cut-off is 550-600 and for CMAT it is 85-90%ile. The group discussion is case-based. Outstanding achievements has 8% of weightage in the election process. The pros of the institute include its infrastructure, inclusive classrooms, case-based pedagogy and rich alumni base.
