Likes

- College authorities have implemented unnecessary uniform rules saying as a girl student kurtas above knee length is indecent. Canteen food and price is not good. The college is not that spacious.
Course Curriculum Overview
Handique is a quite reputable college. The students get good study environment. The curriculums are good but doesn't help for the real life situations. Cultural programs should be held more with allowing normal students to participate rather than the union members. Attendance policy is strict but doesn't even consider if a student is having real problems.
Internships Opportunities
The internships are mostly for study purpose so it dies not always give stipend. Public Health Engineering department and Aranyak are the places that I have had my internships. Field trips are done with quite practical knowledge
Fees and Financial Aid
The year-wise fees I am paying is around 20000. Scholarships are available for BPL holders, fee waivers,etc. registration fees is around 2000. Fee waivers are admitted freely into the college. BPL holding students got scholarship of 170000 rupees in time duration of 3-months. Admission fees is different for each category.
Campus Life
Since the college is quite old (established in 1939) so the infrastructure is not that good. But the college provides internships, seminars and workshops. The campus life is fine but not enjoyable as it is very hectic with too many classes in a single day that too without break(most days). The classes start at 8am making it difficult for far living students.
Admission
I have only applied to handique girls' college and pandu college but I chose HGC because it is better than many other colleges in Guwahati and is quite reputable for it. It is the first women college in northeast established in 1939.
Faculty
The faculty to student ratio eould be 1:20. Faculties are quite approachable. Best faculties I would say are Pranab sir from Botany dept. Political Sc. Dept faculties and also the staff members are good. The security guards are very rude though
Night Life
The college gets closed around 5-6 pm. Hgc is situated in the heart of Guwahati city that is Dighali pukhuri which has msny cafes and eating spots around. The state museum is near my college and dighali pukhuri which is a park it quite a nice place to hangout.
