The black horse of Mumbai University

I opted for this college because it was the best in my opinion in my area. The infrastructure of this college was attractive. The work schedule was appealing and the teacher's behavior was something that I have been looking for a long time. Here, teachers will observe you and your knowledge and will advise you accordingly that will surely be beneficial to you.

My first year of BFM was in the afternoon batch which was from 11:30 am to 4 pm for BMS it was a morning batch that was from 8 am to 11 :30 am. I liked this schedule because it didn't make the college very crowded and chaotic. The number of students in this college is large enough. For my second year in BFM we have been shifted to the morning batch with BMS because the new first-year students will be commending their lectures soon. I admire the management of timings and courses in this college.

Yes, our teachers encourage us to do internships and part-time the moment 1st year ends. They know they can give us theoretical knowledge but the practical knowledge is something that we have to experience. I have gotten more than 5 internship contacts alone from my head of department. You can choose an internship on your own too and inform the HOD about it. The support from the college is unreal. The stipend differs, I have received stipends from Rs.3000 to Rs.5000 a month.

I am a second-year student so I don't have a 1st hand experience with the placements and job opportunities in my college but instead of being in the dark, I asked my seniors about it. Of course, the placement and job opportunities won't be similar to the infamous colleges under MU but we have pretty good companies investing in our students. We have Reliance, Tata, Capgemini, Microsoft etc hiring the students in their companies.

The fee structure is very feasible. As I said in the upper question, I was confused whether it was of per semester, it was that low. The fee is under 20k to 22k and is divided into three installments throughout the year. The fee structure is actually one of the best features of this college.

Our college has amazing ties with several Institutions that are international. To study in those institutions college provides scholarship as well as loan facilities to help the students get as much as they can. For normal admission, the concession is provided to students who are from a low middle-class family.

We don't provide hostel facilities because the main crowd of the college is domestic, the kids who are from outside stay in PG and get regular help from college and teachers when needed. The canteen of the college develops frequently with new dishes and better varieties.

Alumni are the closest mentors for the juniors in this college. Without any ego or high headedness, the alumni and seniors are very helpful. They are open for casual talks. They don't feel the need to establish the point that they are seniors ever. In fact, they help the juniors with the fests and the college traditions.

The exam structure is very good in my opinion. Two exams are conducted per semester, one is internals and one is externals. The internals is of 25 marks (20 of it is written and 5 of it is attendance and activities) and the external is of 75 marks.

I got admission in this college through merit list, my performance in 12th was good. I got admission directly through the principal as she was the one who took my interview. I was taken aback by the way she showed interest in everything I asked and told her. She showed me the bifurcation of the fees, the syllabus and their way of teaching. One thing that I was very impressed with was the instant process of admission. I payed the fees which was so minimal that I actually thought for a minute that is was per semester but in fact it was per year. I paid the fees the same day, got the receipt the same day, gave my documents the same day and I was granted the admission. Simple and easy.

The faculty of this college is amazing. They know what they are talking about. They know how to improve themselves. After every lecture, we are asked for a feedback. They are punctual with both coming and leaving. They become familiar with you very soon which is something I didn't get in other colleges. In a week, they will know your name.
