Remarks

Its up to you. The college is very strict for everything for timings, studies, discipline, everything.

Entrance Preview

I took NATA. its a test for taking admission in architecture college. I scored 93/200 which is a good score. I heard about this college as a good college that's why i opt the college. I got admission only on the basis of my test.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

Architecture course consists of various research project, construction projects, estimation costing, landscaping, climatology, structures, specifications, building construction and management and some practical studios. The course look very tough in starting but when your ambitions are high nothing is more tough than anything.

Internships Opportunities

No not at all. We have to find it by our-self. There are good firms like hafeez contractors, b. V. Doshi, raj reval. The stipend we get is around 10k-18k. Overall experience was mix of good and bad. Good thing is we enjoyed working in a architectural firm but the bad thing was its all different what we study in college because practical is far different than theory.

Placement Experience

0.5

No placement from the college. Its your wish you can do a job by searching yourself or you can open your own office if u feel you can manage it. If you get a job u can get around 3 lakh to 4.5 lakh according to your experience and your office. Internship was best experience.

College Events

3.5

Every year ARCHVENTURE happens where all colleges of Haryana come to participate. There were different activities quizzes competitions live concerts happens and you have to manage them. That's a difficult part but we are the rockers. They can be easy as well difficult. We get to host NASA in our college i forgot the year that was on a large scale. We worked hard for that. That was a memorable event that happened our college. Students from all over the country came even from Pakistan also. Hats off to us to arranged everything on time.

Fee Structure And Facilities

At our time the fee structure was feasible. You have to pay around 40,000 per semester. But now they have hiked the fee around 1,50,000 per semester. Around 4 times. They don't even increase any facilities for these hiking in money. They should have thought of the students who cant afford to pay such a big amount. Education should be free.

Fees and Financial Aid

No i don't know about this facility. Actually no scholarship is provided. You have to contact administration.

Campus Life

4.5

Extra curricular omg its very annoying. Every Wednesday there is extra curricular activity after lunch. If you don't attend it you have to pay 500 per day. Campus was awesome a lots of open space. We have cool canteen. Big playgrounds, sports was our favorite. In football we won all the competitions. Talking about gender ratio males are more in college than females u can say 70:30 boy:girl.

Hostel Facilities

0.5

I lived in PG which was amazing. I pay 3000 per month in my first year but when i was in final year i pay 5500 for accommodation. Food we cook by our-self. It was awesome experience. Pg was best to live compared to hostels. You can go anywhere any time. No strictness is there.

Alumni/Alumna

Seniors were very helpful to us and vice-versa. Even now we have a good bond. Yeah u always learn from seniors. They are more knowledgeable.

Exam Structure

Exams were very tough what we study never come in exams. Its that what topics you miss for study will always come in exams. Practicals are very easy compared to exams that's why we don't get good marks. Its a kind of both hectic as well chilled out. The way the tough paper comes. We do it in chilled way.

Admission

Its east process. I registered on the official website of the Haryana counselling. According to the merit list i secured 39 rank. My name comes in 1st counselling. Then only paper work remains. The administration of every college is good at the time of admissions.

Faculty

4

No doubt, some professors are very qualified but some are not good as expected. Ph.d holder are also present and their presence gives us the best feeling and inspiration. Some teachers are as our friends we can ask anything without hesitating but some are very strict we even miss their classes and go for movies. Overall the faculty was good.

Placement Experience:

As the program has been approved by CoA and puts emphasis on modern software applications such as BIM, our portfolios look fabilous. Moreover, the career office keeps helping us to enhance our CVs and improve the quality of our work. When i graduate, i won't be limited to basic drafting jobs. Graduates move into cool fields like urban planning, green building copnsulting, or real estate mangament. Having all those options on the table makes life way less stressful.
