Amity University, Lucknow

According to the reviews online, Amity University Lucknow is not a good institution when overall academics and placements are concerned. 

• The faculty are mostly new members who have little to no educational experience.
• They are extremely strict about maintaining a 75% attendance, failing which you won't be allowed to sit for the exams.
• You do not learn from your mistakes because the corrections in the exams are not done properly.
• Placements are not at all good. Students usually go for off-campus placements.

The university tries to replicate international colleges like the infrastructure, facilities, Library, etc. But they could never reach their academic standards. So, it is suggested that you look for other options rather than take admission in Amity University Lucknow.

Amity University Lucknow functions from an off campus of Noida Campus, every operation is controlled from there.

• They have a beautiful and well-maintained infrastructure.
• The class timings are longer than usual. 
• They, unlike other universities, do not guarantee placement, most of the MBA graduates have applied for off-campus placements.
• The fests are not up to the mark like the Noida campus.
• Students should have a 75% attendance or you will not be allowed to sit for the exams.
• Hostels do not offer AC rooms. 
• The mess charges have increased a lot, students have to pay INR 3000 per month. This is a lot because the quality of the food is also bad.
• The hostel provides wifi, which is a real necessity.

If you want to study in Amity it is suggested that you think before taking this step. If you think you can get a proper job offer off-campus then you can opt to study here. As they do not give much priority to on-campus placements.

If you are living in Lucknow, Amity University Lucknow is more feasible. It is better than Galgotias University for many reasons. Amity University is a more reputed university.
