The reality of Garden City University

The area where the university is situated is very nice and safe. The curriculum helps me to achieve the goal or the profession I chose as they not only train us for the college exams but also prepare us for the interviews . As I have mentioned before , not all teachers are trained in their field , it's better if the college actually takes charge and makes sure they are good and are proficient in their subject. The exams are not so difficult if you have proper knowledge about the subject.

I have still not applied for any internship but from what I have heard from the seniors there are very low chances of getting internship for our desired posts if we apply through college. The stipend are mostly no pay .

For students in their final sem are eligible for campus placements. Many startups and private companies like Infosys, Flipkart etc have visited and half of the students have got the job and other half applied privately. The highest package was around 20lakhs and lowest was around 2-3lakhs . I am planning on doing Job and later doing my masters.

Per semester I am paying 63,300rs and only for the first semester I paid 35,000rs . I was in hostel for the first year only where I paid around 40,000rs now the fees has came upto 82,000. There are various other courses for which the fees varies, for engineers it's around 1.5lakh per sem and for bcom honors students it's 65,300.

There are two main events that happen in college one is fresherism for the welcoming of the freshers, which would be only for a day and the second is gardenia which is conducted for three days . We also have sports area for indoors as well as outdoor games . There is something called open elective where the students can choose anyone of their interests. Generally it's for only first two years and for the final year it's not there.

Hostel was okay, the timings for which was fixed for boys and girls. For girls it was at 9pm and for boys it was 10pm. There will always be a warden present in the ground floor. With their permission the students can get out of the campus. The meals and menu are fine cause we eat at the cafeteria which has around 3-5 restaurants to choose from . It was affordable at first , now the price has increased but comparing it with other college I guess this is okay. The locality where I stay now , the rent is around 7.5k and it's very near to college . Many students have rented rooms as it's easier to enjoy college life that way.

By the time I tried to apply to other colleges, they were already full or the admission has already been done. I applied to around 3-4 ,colleges in banglore and yes I was selected to all of them but my parents approved of this college as the course and the curriculum was better comparatively

Sometimes there are shortage of faculty, for now there is one teacher who is teaching us for two subjects, but the lecturers are nice , most of them are approachable and are ready to help the students. I like Savita mam when it comes to accounts, malathi mam for her teachings in statistics and analytics subjects .There are IA quizes that are conducted after each unit completion, there are case studies as well as assignments assigned as well. Around 10% students fail in one or the other subject .
