There is no specific list of things required in the IET Lucknow hostel. However, it is better to carry a formal outfit, relevant documents, and sports gear of your favourite ones. All other regular things like a bucket, toiletries, locks, and wellness products, can be found in the nearby markets.

The hostels at IET Lucknow are State government-funded. It is the same as the college hostels. The hostel and bedrooms can be made amazing by looking and focusing more on the maintenance standards of the hostel. However, it has been observed that a newly constructed hostel has been inaugurated and it is in much better conditions.

In terms of mess facility, it is a private cum cooperative basis. The mess accounting is being done by the student head of the hostel called as Mess secretary. The mess service is pretty much good. The menu is as per the students.

There is just one problem that students face the most is the poorly maintained washrooms. The internet facility is also good. Other than these, the hostel is fine.

One of my friends studied at IET Lucknow and availed the hostel. According to him the college campus and the ambiance is really good.

• The hostel on the campus consists of a bed, tube light, table, and a fan.
• Rest of the things you will have to purchase by yourself. Like the bedding materials, pillow, mattress, bed table, almirahs and many more.
• There is one online portal named Rent le where you will find all these materials and furniture.
• They will deliver at your doorstep and your tedious task of purchasing from the market and bringing it to the hostel room will get reduced.
• Also, the prices of all the products in the portal are quite reasonable.
• All you need to log in to the page and customize your offerings, they will deliver it to the hostel gate.
• Although the first-year rooms are very good, you just need to make little adjustments for this.

Apart from the basic necessities, the hostels have a good electrical supply, the washrooms are clean, the college Wi-Fi also provides good speed as well. The mess food is hygienic and you will find that the food tastes like home-cooked food. The mess hall is fully air conditioned as well.

The Ramanujam hostel is completely equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi services. Every floor has 4 or more routers to ensure equal distribution of speed to every student.

A very close friend of mine states that you need to login to the Wi-Fi using specific login details and multiple devices can be connected at a time with no lag in the network or speed. 

You can also access files up to some TB from the server. The internet service is available 24*7. You can easily surf web series, movies and etc without any buffer in high quality. Sometimes there is a bit of lag while watching any web series but then it rectifies automatically to ensure your carefree binging.

Four people living in a room is fun but this applies only if you are comfortable with sharing a room with them. Having a friend who graduated from IET Lucknow, here are some tips for you.

It's good because you get to learn a lot from each other and you enjoy the first and second year. You can even work seriously on some of your projects. Most of all, you can make some good friends.

However, if you are not comfortable you can seek a PG to stay in. From the third year, you will have two people in one room. There are some cons but do remember the advantages of staying at the college hostel.

It is up to you, what kind of person you are and how comfortable you are with others.

IET Lucknow has a total of 6 boys’ hostels on campus. B.Tech first-year students (boys) are accommodated in a room shared by a total of 4 students. However, you will only get 3 cupboards and it will be shared among 4 students.

Ramanujam Hostel is one of the best of all. You will get 24*7 electricity and a water supply. It is a 4-floor structure with the ground, 1st and 2nd floor accommodating 4 students each in one room while the topmost floor accommodates 3 students.

In rare circumstances, if your luck favors and any allotment remains vacant you may get a triple sharing room. You may change your room if you like on certain special circumstances such as medical but there is no guarantee that you will get triple, double, or single sharing rooms.
