As I said in the previous question. I have done much research and decided to join this college because of college decipline and the management. We can see all the lectures are doctorates who are well knowledged and trained people. Theain reason for choosing this college will be definitely because of the faculty for sure. Coming to the admission it is a smooth process we no need to wait for hours and sit like a rock. The person who takeover our admission will show us the entire college branches, labs, playground, canteen, fee structure. Then finally he gives you a chance to decide what if you are ok with the everything then the admission process begins. They ask for basic information like name, parents, Id proof.

Admission:

Actually I didn't go for the choosen of other colleges because my intermediate education was also completed in the same college of other campus. So I directly choose to join in same college because of good and excellent approach. I didn't applied for the other colleges and I was not rejected by them because I already had a college of future study college which I like the most. The admission process is not too much , when I went to Degree College for the first time they gave us good approach to me and my dad. First of all they discussed about the courses to choose me the best and interested by me a lot . They gave suggestions to choose for career. They explained about college their rules , restrictions and fees process in a good manner which we liked , after all those discussions done I got an admission form to fill and I got an admission.
