No, it is not compulsory to stay in a hostel if you are a student at IISc Bangalore. You can become a day scholar too, but trust me if you do so you will be missing out on a huge part of your experience, hostel life. But there are several merits of staying in a hostel.
- The lush green campus and the serene experience of cycling to and fro the hostel is a unique experience.
- The night walk with your friends after a long tiring day will help you boost your stress.
- Staying in the hostel is safer than staying outside as the hostel and campus are well-guarded and strict security measures are taken.
- Attending seminars becomes easier as you can reach the venue within 5 minutes.
- The most important part of staying in the hostel is group studying and group assignments.
- The classes have no fixed timings so as a day scholar you might find it difficult to come back again.
- The mess and hostel charges are very low and you get excellent facilities even at such a low price.
- Students get to spend their leisure time doing their favorite activities including swimming pool, basketball court, badminton court, hockey ground, cricket ground, archery classes, aerobics classes, and many more.
So, it depends on you if you want to enjoy the comfort of your home and become a day scholar or enjoy your hostel life to the fullest.
