Fees of the course per year and scholarship available in the college

Year wise around 4000 is paid for our course. But its reduced for me due to scholarship gained through OBC. Hostel fees is 75 but mess is included thats around weekly 500. Batchmates pay 5000 or more. Egrantz are offered.

Students view on campus life

There are festivals conducted by college union so they do film fests, dance programs, music concerts, drama etc. There kalolsavams conducted natnational level. Big library including all informations and media centre, web centre etc.

Facilities provided in the college hostel

Enough spacious, electricity, free wifi,etc Mess is provided at a weekly rate of 500. Parking facilities are aranged. Meals are normal. Registration is through dss offuce located inside the campus. Not so bad atmosphere.

Students view on faculties

Teachers are mostly punctual. But they are specialized in their own art field so lot to learn from them. Dont have a reason to dislike a faculty. Exams are based one owns skill.considering its a professional course.

College competence

I applied for 5 colleges of fine arts. I only got in on here. There was hostel available for me and fees was affordable and campus has an ambiance. I prefered fine arts college mavelikkara cause it was close to my house.
