Anna University - [AU], Chennai - Hostel Details

There are almost ten hostels or more for CEG boys. You will undoubtedly enjoy the hostel life there, despite the facilities not being as good as those at private colleges.

The cost of the hostel, including meals, will be about INR 22,000 per semester. The rules at the hostel are not too strict. You may roam until 10.30 p.m. Any electronic device is acceptable.

Every hostel will have a TV room. If you enjoy cricket, watching a game with your hostel mates in a lively atmosphere reminiscent of a cricket field would be an amazing experience. There will be wifi in every hostel.

Without hostels, college life would be dull. Join the hostel without thinking twice.

Hostel features:

• In the first year, 4 people per room plus a shared toilet and bathroom. However, the hostel block will differ between the second and third years.

• In the fourth year, there will be one person per room or possibly two, depending on the block you choose.

The international hostels at Anna University are one of the best hostel facilities provided by a government university. The facilities here are like no other hostel. The hostels provide:

• Air-conditioned rooms

• Electrical appliances like a geyser, fridge, and microwave

• The hostel also has industrial washing machines with dryers

All these amenities make international hostels in Anna University top notch. The only drawback is that now the administration has started accepting local students into international hostels just because they pay a lot of money.

Unlike the general belief, the hostels at Anna University are indeed in good condition. People spread false information regarding its conditions. Some points that support this fact are

• The hostel management has taken keen interest in maintaining the quality of the hostel. 
• Separate boys and girls hostels are available with separate mess facilities also.
• Good Wi-Fi connection with restrictions on some websites help students concentrate on their studies.
• Your hostel room will be shared by 4 people so you can make friends for your lifetime.
• The food here is good but is repeated a lot and you might get a bit bored after some time.
• A TV hall has been opened for entertainment purposes. You can spend your leisure time there either watching TV or reading newspapers.
• The bathrooms are clean and proper hygiene is maintained within the hostels.

All these points made me believe that the hostels of Anna University are not as bad as people often portray them.
