How are the hostels like at NIT Calicut? Is there single occupancy for Mtech students?

Arnav RoyLives in Kolkata, West Bengal, India

No, NIT Calicut does not have single occupancy for PG students as of now.

First Year – You will be accommodated in the professor’s apartment,t which consists of three rooms, one hall, and a kitchen. You need to share your room with at least three people, which may vary based on the number of students.

Second Year – The students will be shifted to MBA hostels, which are much like first-year apartments with an attached bathroom

So, you don’t have a chance to enjoy single-room life at NIT Calicut

How are the hostels at NIT Calicut for freshers? What are some pictures of the hostel rooms?

Devesh SarafStudied at NIT Calicut

NIT Calicut first-year students are allotted 2 hostels namely

  • Hostel A: This room has 3 beds, cupboards, and tables. Although the rooms are triple occupancy, 4 students are made to stay together
  • PG-1 : This hostel has double occupancy rooms only although the rooms are smaller in size than Hostel A. 

In my opinion, it's better to get Hostel A because the rooms are spacious and it has better facilities than PG-1. From what I have heard, PG-1 mess has better food than Hostel A but that does not really matter because you can change your mess after a few months. The internet facilities are poor and this matter needs to be taken care of. The restrictions are imposed on first-year students but from the second year, students are free to do as their will. Trust me hostel life is much more than comfortable beds and mess food. It's about the friends you make and the memories you create!

What facilities are provided in the 1st year hostels at NIT Calicut NITC? Do each student get a table and lockable cupboard?

Shailja KhandelwaB.Tech. from National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2019)

My brother was a student at NIT Calicut so I have information on the boy's hostel only. The first-year students are allocated to 2 hostels namely Hostel A and Hostel PG-1. 

Hostel A

  • Triple Occupancy rooms. 
  • Each room has one table and cupboards with locks per person.

Hostel PG-1

  • Very small rooms for 2 people.
  • The room has a single table only with no specific cupboards.

Hostel A seems to have better facilities than PG-. So if you get the second one, be ready to compromise on many things with your roommate.

Common facilities in both hostels

Here are a few common amenities that can be found in both the boys' hostel

  • A mess that serves food only to the first-year students. The food served here is average with more veg and less non-veg options.
  • Well-maintained and clean bathrooms and toilets. 
  • The hostel rooms are lit adequately and have proper ventilation. 
  • There is a smooth electricity supply with rarely any issues. 
  • The hostel has no internet access.

Overall, the hostel facilities at NIT Calicut are like any other institute, average and tolerable.

Is hostel compulsory in NIT calicut for postgraduate students ?

Aman HarjaiStudied at National Institute of Technology, Calicut (2017)

No, staying in the NIT Calicut hostel for a PG student is not at all compulsory. The administration will ask you to be available throughout the day on the campus and staying in the hostel comes under the residential program but it's not compulsory. No one can force you to avail of hostels. 

Staying in the other hostels or PG would be costlier and the hostels at NIT Calicut are supposed to be cheaper. There are a number of rooms with AC within 150 meters from the campus in or near Koyyapuram Apartments. 

Therefore, it depends on your will whether to stay in a hostel or anywhere outside the campus and no one can interfere in your decision.

Few of my friends attend NIT Calicut and they were able to give me some information regarding the hostel on campus. 

  • More than half of the hostel buildings appear to be old and rustic. They were built about 50 years ago but they still serve the basic required standard.

  • The first-year students are allocated rooms based on a 4 sharing system.
  • For the second-year students who reside in hostel C, one room is allocated to three students. For those of the students who reside in Mega, the rooms are allocated on a two-sharing system.
  • For third-year students residing in hostels B and C, one room is shared by three students.
  • In the fourth year, usually, single rooms are allocated but due to renovation in hostel E, some of the rooms are allocated on a two-sharing basis.
  • The food at the messes is sometimes good and sometimes bad. If you are willing to spend some extra money, you can make up for it.
  • Internet connectivity is good. On some days the download speed goes up to 12 megabytes per second.
  • From the second year onwards, there is no restriction imposed on boys regarding entry/exit time. Girls have permission to stay out till 9 pm.
