Entrance Preview

I cleared NATA with a 16th rank in karnataka state CET for architecture. All india rank of manipal is pretty high also. I heard manipal is a nice place to party.

Internships Opportunities

No it does not, internships are to be secured by application of students, stipend very low like 0 to 10k month max. Internship experience is very diverse.

Placement Experience

1.5

Placement and jobs in architecture are saturating in all the mega cities due to too much inflow, market situations, etc. But in the rural underdeveloped areas have good scope for legacy but comes at the cost of lower standards of living and comfort, causing very few who practice after graduation.

Campus Life

Gender ratio is rarely decent due to effective means of marketing for all free from gender bias. diversity is the same case. Sports facility is commendable but again comes at a prise if your willing to pay.

Exam Structure

Exams, tests and assignments are always pouring in, leaving no time for social activity or hobbies. Highly hectic and stressful course, waiting to be done with it and take my shot at life as it comes, because struggling like this and to not be job secured is standing on thin ice.

Academic Curriculum- they constantly upgrade the subjects which needs to be taught
Labs - very well equipped labs for all branches.
You can choose to drop a lab and do it in winter break or summer break

Dislikes

very less holidays only 3rd saturday is holiday and they dont give holidays for jayantis and all
Auto drivers near the college. this is pure daylight robbery

Placement Experience:

From your 7th semester you become eligible to get placed and it is mandatory to get internship before you get placed which the college helps you to get and around 400-500 companies visit, and a good amount of offers are made by them. The average package stands somewhere around 11LPA -12LPA and the highest goes to 50LPA-60LPA and the median stands around 9-10LPA.

Review by first bencher who enjoyed life with back benchers

Likes

The Well maintained Infrastructure of around 20 acres
The support for non academic activities like sports and cultural
Supportive nature of few faculties for tech competitions both for participating as well as for organising

Dislikes

There is no much needed coordination among faculties
The student teacher bonds are not good for all faculties
Some over helmed rules regarding discipline and cleanliness

Placement Experience:

Well in case of placements it's not upto the mark because, As it's a Government college for companies there will be a zero promotion. One more thing is there is no separate funds to accommodate the officials came to the college for placements And the college is not working with 100% efficiency towards placements of students

My review to you.!

Placement Experience:

From 6th semester we will become eligible for campus placements. Very few companies will visit for chemical engineering those are aslo not core. Highest package offered for a chemical engineering is 600000 I guess this aslo a long back. But dont take a hope on placements here in chemical weapons. Do mainly focus on Gate exam. Get good score go for mtech or apply for good core jobs for interview.

Pretty decent college

Some other colleges I applied to are NIFT, MIT Pune and Soft Pune. My admission was confirmed for all three however after speaking to alumni from all 4, I decided that MSAP was the best fit for me. I chose this college over NIFT as NIFT was offering me admission for b.des textile design and I was not interested in perusing that course. The admission process for MSAP consists of an entrance exam, portfolio and statement of purpose and personal interview....Read More

I applied to other colleges in kerala. Cat,trivandrum and avani,calicut. Both were much more amazing than MSAP comparing the infrastructure,college aesthetics,architecture vibes and as a malayali,maybe the right spot. But not widely ranged,connected nor the placements matched up to my likes. We have to meet the NATA criteria and have good marks in board. Nothing much...Read More

To be eligible for this course you have to clear the NATA Exam. Application forms, application fees, and application fees can be checked on the official site of Msap. There should be an improvement in the admission process for now students have to just pass the NATA exam but there should be a particular cut-off, like government colleges do. Students have to at least score 50 percent marks to get into college. application form, fees, and dates can be seen on the official site of the college....Read More
