Remarks

College is good. But the people need to change. They need to be more open minded. college needs to appoint more professional staff that talk politely.

Entrance Preview

There was no entrance exams for Bachelors. I had filled a Centralized form and in that I had been given an option of allotment for this college. It was awesome college. Nice experience. Expert Professors. Open minded. Well cultured. Gives opportunity to students even if they have less marks. The make diamonds out of coal, unlike other big colleges that just polish a diamond.

Course Curriculum Overview

2.5

The course is basically set by Pune University. Its a good course. Covers up mainly all elements. It covers electronics, mathematics, main basic programming languages also it covers almost all database related concepts like views,triggers, procedures, cursors etc.

Internships Opportunities

No I am unaware of any of such internships. I am just completing the 100 characters that are necessary.

Placement Experience

1.5

Placements were difficult during my time as already it was economic depression. all IT companies were shedding staff. Few companies did come like Tech Mahindra, TCS etc. But I was not selected as my marks of 10th and 12th did not fulfil the criteria.

College Events

We had Fete. We also went for trips. We celebrated diwali by traditional day. We celebrated eid by holidays. we celebrated events like talent expo where we mad projects and theories and we showcased them.We also made mockups of our ideas and showcased in exhibition. we had dance events. we had college level cricket matches.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is very good. I wouldn't say cheap but affordable as compared to others. There were options of fees payment on quarterly installment basis. They were strict regarding money matters. They have expelled students who were unable to pay. They did not provide much scholarships to average students like me.

Fees and Financial Aid

No I dont know of any scholarships. I am just writing to complete the forceful 100 characters. Few more left.

Campus Life

2.5

There were more guys than girls. I am not sure about any parties as there were none during my time. Muslim culture. No guys were allowed to talk to guys. Usually guys would harass girls as they belonged from such don type families. They did not participate in politics and our principal was removed from college as he had been seen supporting some political party.

Hostel Facilities

0.5

The hostel was big. Cleanliness was not given much emphasis. The mess was not there. We had joined another mess. College did not provide any mess facility. Due to some students being from slum areas and belonging to outlaws families there was trouble of safety to life. Every other day there was a fight.

External Expense: Rs.4000 - Rs.7000

Alumni/Alumna

I am personally not in touch of any alumni. But yes few of them are seen sometimes. Feels good. All are successful and leading happy lives.

Exam Structure

Exams were chilled out. Many a times we were given the open book tests. this was to make sure that we knew what part was in which chapter and so on the day of exams we could actually know what is left to be studied and what is already completed. It was smart.

Admission

I had filled a Centralized form and in that I had been given an option of allotment for this college. Then I approached the college. They had a seminar in which they guided as to which option to be taken based on percentage and interests. As per their guidance I opted for Bachelor of Computer Science.

Faculty

3.5

The course is basically set by Pune University. Its a good course. Covers up mainly all elements. It covers electronics, mathematics, main basoc programming languages also it covers all the necessary database related concepts like views,procedures,cursors,triggers and also has good faculty with knowledge for data structures using C and also good faculty for C. Best teachers I remember are Atiya ma'am for maths.

Likes

The staff and faculty members are very supportive and good in nature.
Friendly student environment. Never heard of any ragging incident taken place.
They conduct Events, workshops, and different activities regularly and neatly.

Dislikes

Canteen food is limited and quality is average
Limited Campus placement opportunities and less industry experience
Lab equipment and resources needs to be improved,

Placement Experience:

Campus placement are limited in the college. A few companies visit during the final year, and students usually becomes eligible fromo the last semester. The packages offered are generally modest, mostly for entry-level roles. Only a small percentage of students get placed thorugh campus drives, while many prefer to apply off-campus for better opportunities. The college provides basic placement support such as info about job openings and guidance, but students need to build their own skills and prepare independently. After completing the degree, students prefer to pursue higher studied, professional courses, or entry-level IT jobs.

The campus itself is huge and beautiful tbh.
The Events or Fest Days like it was crazy like ganesh utsav, Holi , Etc etc.
The exam envoirment was strict but only if we had exams at foundation college otherwise it was not that good if we have exams in same department

Dislikes

The faculty. like they dont even know the subject core or anything from the subject
Food and canteen services. i had worst experinces about the food quality from sandip university.
Campus was Huge but not safe. sometimes hyena comes sometimes cheetah sneak in our campus. at night it looks like haunted college tbh.

Course Curriculum Overview:

like i was sure that i want a course that will give me experince about AIML with subjects like 3D design + Coding + Envoirmental studeis and all. and the course from the sandip actually have all these subjects in a single course thats why i choose this course. curriculam was good it was updated on time. the course helps me to land a internship with goverment cause i learn the basics of AI from this course. the ares of improvements should be the faculty members like they are horrible sometimes they dont even make the notes for the subjects they ask students to make notes and shared with other students. even one of the faculty member shared a playlist form youtube for a specific subject and ask us to take notes from it and prepare for exam not a single leccture he takes at that time. the frequency of the exam is also not that good cause the want us to prepare for the final semster exam which is of 6 months in just 3 months with all the paper works , projects , assignments etc etc.

There is no ragging of any kind in the college. Due to the large number of security forces, bodyguards, and bouncers, there is complete security and privacy in the college.So girls don't have any fear in college, everything is safe.
The faculty speaks in unison with everyone. If someone does not understand in English, they are also explained in their mother tongue, so that no child faces any inconvenience while learning.
In college, not only education but also a lot of attention is paid to culture. Which is very necessary for current students and I have also participated in many new cultural activities.

Dislikes

The college follows the time rule but sometimes there is no understanding about a child or his late arrival. He is stopped at the gate, no matter how far you have come.That there is no one available at the gate to understand the person concerned
The college is completely technical and only blackboards are used during lectures and no projectors of any kind are used. Projectors are used only during presentations and that too at very minimal times.
The highest fee in the college is for MBA and smart classrooms are provided only to them, which is tantamount to partiality to the rest of the students.This makes those people realize that the faculty is poor.

Placement Experience:

After taking admission in the college, the placement drive is started for the student immediately from the second semester. All the information about which is sent to the class wise group and if the student is eligible, you can apply immediately after seeing your experience. The experience is very beautiful. You learn new things. You also understand how the interview round is conducted and what the eligibility is. Most of the companies that come to the college include renowned companies like Microsoft, Infosys, TCS, Deollite, etc., which hire students. The biggest package of Rs 7 crore per NM has been given so far from Sandeep University in the entire Nashik district.Which is a matter of great pride. Sandeep University is the only college where the largest job fair seminar in Maharashtra is attended. In which students from all over Maharashtra come and give live interviews to companies that have come to the college, give their region and announce hiring on the spot.Therefore, this college provides the greatest opportunity for students to meet all the renowned companies under one roof in one place. During the interview, the student's critical thinking skills and his/her inclination are shown rather than CGP and marks to determine whether he/she is eligible or not. In my experience, the college provides such strong education that at least four students are placed in companies every week. I am currently completing my graduation and will be starting my career immediately after that.

I like the infrastructure of the college, the campus area, the availability of canteen services. Everything is great from student perspective. It also has a seperate study room and a library which can be very helpful to many students.
The staff is pretty supportive but can be a handful at times. Other than that it's understandable. The security services are good and it's very much good overall
Many activities are commenced by the college and there's a variety of different stuff like cultural activites, nss clubs, NCC club. Etc They also have many events and seminars that can help students in many ways. Sports events are there too.

Dislikes

At times, the faculty fails at providing support to students and end up adding pressure usually during exam times
The college has uniforms with not enough variety of colours and at times it gets confusing to many people while looking for students from a specific department.

Placement Experience:

Not sure but I've heard a bit that students are eligible for campus placement since the 5th or 6th semester. If one has enough skills, then they'll be able to get a job of a huge package even while being a fresher. The college offers placements but you'll only get placed if you prove yourself to be better than everyone else in the room.

My First impression at VU

Likes

All clear paperwork for admission, no hassle of domicile or and other extra documents and direct admission.
Options to choose between subjects as they are not gonna force any thing on you and you could select subjects from different streams also as like I've selected business etiquette from commerce faculty.
The library is well furnished and equipped. In my free time I just sit there and complete my assignment or read some magazines.

Dislikes

Some classrooms lack finishing and somewhere the paint is peeling of.
Some of the guards are arrogant, some in parking lot and in buliding entry gate.

Placement Experience:

I think 5th sem is where students start getting placements or internships. I don't know much about the placements as it's my first year and my colleges started just a month ago. My plans aren't straight forward as I come from a business background I can't predict what would I be doing but I want to have a career in operating system development .

The Campus Story : the lands of horror.

Likes

They give non-typical college feel where you don’t have to think about anyone as a stranger and can talk openly but within some limits and moderation.
Their courses are out of the norm which are fundamentally created around sports and can make a career in that specific field.

Dislikes

Their management is just the same as any other college as normal procedures just take too much time.
Strict rules to be followed by the university guidelines.
Not to expect any good events to be hosted by them

Placement Experience:

My college gives campus placement placement opportunities typically after 4th semester, which is the 2nd half of the 2nd year. As my college has a partnership with IBM so the standards of campus placement go right up as the placement depends on the curriculum performance of the student so can't really say much for this. If saying as a stalemate, getting a placement is basically confirmed if the student maintains his/her CGPA of 6-7, which shows the consistent of the student in their field.
