The Honest Review - [VESIT], Mumbai

It was quite simple, I was assigned through the CAP process. I applied for many colleges with good Placements or government, but I got a college which is good when it comes to Reputation as well as Placements. The marks cutoff when I applied was 137 in MHTCET and for All India level, 102 in JEE-Mains. The further process was done via CAP counseling.

I was not sure, what to choose, so I chose the best among the option, faculty-student ratio might be 1:30. The qualification of the faculty was quite high like some were IIT professors, some were IIT Alumni, but teaching is an art and it is not taught in IIT, I'm quite sure now. The Exams are quite tough, but engineers figure out everything last night before the exam, so, crackable.

The college faculty provide different companies with referral Internships to us, also the college committee and cell also offer a good amount of Internships, with no stipends obviously. A company like Litebird, Darkhorse, Scogo network provides Internships.

From 6th SEM, you are eligible for college Placements, but no such awareness is spread, so the one who is focused throughout is the one who gets through. The average package is around 6 LPA. The highest that I have seen is Quicksell i.e 18 LPA, and the lowest is yet to come. In the comps department, almost 100% of people are placed, except the ones who plan to study ahead. If I don't get placements, unfortunately, I'll apply for off-campus drives, and I think I have the caliber to break into one.

I haven't seen any fee hike in my semesters. Although the college comes under Mumbai university, you can apply for some state scholarships. I applied for EBC, and it benefitted me with a waiver of half my tuition fees. I also provide some Internal scholarships on the basis of merit reference to your financial background.

There are many fests, but I'll be honest, the scale of participation is so low, that except the committee members no one knows when the event happened. Sports and Dance events are quite engaging and are most loved in the college. Classrooms are well equipped with AC, just for the FE's and that too for Comps department. There is nothing like extracurricular activities in my college.

I was to rent a PG, as college is only available for any 2 years of complete engineering and thereafter, find your own way, but this Pandemic happened and we all came home. The registration for the hostel is to be done 1 month before shifting, as there is quite a big waiting list in the end. Yes, it is kind of affordable as we save our time and travel cost as the mess is attached to the hostel.
