As the hostel rooms at IIIT Guwahati are built for 1 person a room but from this year, it is going to be 2 per room, is it not congested and is anything going to change for the hostel?

Yes, as the rooms were designed and built for a single person per room, thus adjusting two people will make it a little congested. But it would not be a problem as the students will be provided with double-decker beds.

There will be proper space for two tables and chairs. The rooms in the hostel have proper ventilation.

If the student wants to sleep on the floor, they can remove the double-decker beds from their room. They will be provided with two cupboards in one room, each for a student. The students can put all their belongings there.

In comparison with some other institutions such as IIT BHU, where three of the beds are arranged in U-shaped with a table in the center of the room, the condition of IIIT Guwahati is much better.

Even after knowing all these facts, if there is any doubt about the room then you should visit the campus or talk with the current students over there and try to know about any ongoing issue about the same.

Which is the best hostel in NIT Trichy for first year B.Tech students?

AM
Aditri Mukharjee Posted On : September 9th, 2021
B.Tech Metallurgy, and Material Science & C, National Institute of Technology, Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu (2018)

The hostel facilities provided in NIT Trichy are excellent. There are many hostels in this college but the best hostel for the students is the Diamond hostel. 

  • Diamond hostel: The facilities available inside this hostel are amazing and the ventilation available inside the rooms is top class. The hostel is located in a very good spot with the mess, canteens, and lecture halls are nearby. There are also two well-maintained rooms which are specially made to play table tennis.

There are some other hostels too inside the NIT Trichy campus which are as follows.

  • Agate: The location of this hostel is excellent but there are a lot of issues with the wifi speed and the ventilation available is not good.
  • Jade: This hostel is also very good and is above average in everything except for the location of the lecture rooms and the canteen is very far away from the hostel and it is a big disadvantage.
  • Coral: The location of this hostel is as good as agate but the condition of the rooms inside this hostel is very poor.

Before choosing a room, do check out the wifi speed personally as slow wifi speed can be very frustrating and it consumes a lot of time while accessing the internet.

How good is hostel life at NIET?

AS
Anubha Sharma Posted On : June 1st, 2021
BA Computer Programming & Movies, Noida Institute of Engineering and Technology (2019)

Here are some of the information from an ex-student of NIET and a good friend of mine about the girl’s hostel.

  • The wifi facility is available, however, most of the sites are blocked and students use VPN to use them.
  • The food served initially is good but over time, the quality degrades. The mess committee guarantees quality and change of menus in starting year but you won’t get to see any change.
  • Lift is also available but it never works. It is always under maintenance. The student of the first year gets 4th floor and they have to struggle a lot due to this.
  • The security management of the hostel is quite good.
  • The rooms in the girls’ hostel are of two types- three and four-seater. The first-year students are placed on the 4th floor in four-seater rooms and rest in 1st. 2nd, and 3rd in three-seater.
  • There is no Gym facility for girls in the hostel. There is one on the second campus, you will have to go by NIET Bus.
  • You are not allowed to be in your room during college hours. As there won’t be any electricity.
  • The students are allowed to stay out till 7 pm. And for a night out, you will have to take permission from the chief warden who will first ask from parents and then allow.

Overall the hostel experience will be average. You can opt for the college hostel in first year to make some friends, and move out later in 2nd year.

How is hostel life in the Madras Institute of Technology? What is the hostel GATE closing time?

SC
Sagnik Chaudhari Posted On : June 22nd, 2021
Studied at Madras Institute of Technology (2018)

During my brother’s college days, they roam around freely as there was no fence. But now, to get into the hostel zone of MIT, you must walk around the fence. One of the primary difficulties for dormitory students should be this. However, this has been done from a managerial standpoint to improve safety.

  • The hostel zone takes up about a third of the overall campus space, making it one of the smallest in Tamil Nadu.
  • A great area filled with trees for convenience and to enable interactions with all of the batchmates, juniors, and seniors, was too compact, yet too good.
  • The smaller the campus, the shorter the distance between MITians.
  • As the hostels are close to one another, the students are easily connected to all of their fellow MITians.
  • The only disadvantage is that the playground with extra dorms is located through the main gate, which is very far.
  • Except for breakfast, hostel messes were always full. However, even at that time, a single plate is shared by a large group of friends.
  • Students rush into the mess at 8.25 a.m. to smuggle their breakfast onto their friend's plate.

Everything that happens there, from department slides to songs, films, IPL games, MITAFEST, and so on, introduces MITians to a new universe in which they not only sit and watch but also shout, dance, and play on stage.

Hostel gate closing timings are 6:00 pm for first-year engineering students. 9:00 pm for girls and 10:00 pm for boys respectively.

How many hostels are there in the Dayanand Sagar college of engineering for engineering students and what are the per-semester fees for them?

VS
Vaibhab Singh Posted On : September 17th, 2021
Studied at Dayananda Sagar College of Engineering ,Bangalore (2019)

One of my friends studied at Dayanand Sagar College of Engineering (DSCE). According to him, there are two kinds of boys hostels:

  • Hostel for NRI: This might cost around 1.5 lakhs, I'm not sure though.
  • Indian Hostel: Two Indian Hostels are located within and one outside the university, around 800 m from the university.

Also, know about these facts before coming to any conclusion.

  • The residents of the Indian hostel have their own Hostel Mess where the food is like a limitless buffet there truly is excellent. 
  • In the building where people can also visit, the NRI Hostel has its own canteen. 
  •  It was rather cramped as 4 people had to share a room in the Indian hostels. 
  • One of the beneficial features is that in this hostel you may occasionally obtain decent wireless speeds. 
  • In the 2nd or 3rd year, most of my friends who went to hostels for the very first year moved to PG or home to find it cheaper. 
  • The cost may now have altered as the college and all these things become independent. So everything is the finest. 

Two men's hostels and Two hostels for Girls. For girls. Many pgs are also with outstanding amenities in and near the university. Nevertheless, the hostel is mostly recommended for fresher boys.

Mayank Sinha Posted On : June 15th, 2022
B.Tech in Civil Engineering, Motilal Nehru National Institute of Technology, Allahabad

MNNIT Allhabad has two girls hostels. Students of B.Tech lives in Kamla Nehru Girla Hostel. The hostel is located in the colony area outside the Saraswati gate. 

MNNIT hostels for girls are two-seater. Although the rooms aren’t very spacious, after a while you will get used to them. The washrooms are hygienic and cleaned regularly. 

The mess food isn’t too bad. They offer 4 meals  - breakfast, lunch, evening snacks, and dinner.

There is no wifi, but each room has LAN connection. Usually, there is one LAN port, so you will have to share it with your roommate. 

The hostels are safe. There are security guards present at all times. The in-time for first-year girls is 8:30 pm while for second year onwards, the in-time is 9:30 pm. Extensions are given during fests. 

Other than the inconvenience of a few lizards and insects, the hostel facilities are pretty good.

Are hostels currently available for all the students in NIT Raipur?

GB
Gagan Bakshi Posted On : March 31st, 2021
B. Tech Information Technology, National Institute of Technology, Raipur (2019)

One of my friends is from this Institute, so I am quite aware of the situation. The hostel at the campus is basically available for only 30% of students and the rest of the students stay in a PG or private hostel or in nearby localities.

Hostels seats are allocated on a first come first serve basis. My friend was a little late for the admissions, so she had no choice but to stay in a private hostel. The monthly rent for the room and the mess facility is approximately 5000. The total fee for 1 year is 55,000 for a private hostel.

My friend belongs to an SC category, so even with the lower pointer, she was able to get a seat at Campus Hostel in the second year. The annual fee of the Campus Hostel is around 25,000, which should be paid in two installments (one in each semester).

Admission procedure for girls hostel:

  • Recently, there has been a major change in the admission procedure. Now there are no reserved seats for the SC/ST/OBC category students. The seats are allocated only on the basis of grades.
  • This step was taken because few Girls filed a complaint that they are not getting campus hostel just because they belong to General Category.
  • In time: Girls are not allowed to go out after 8 pm.

Boys Hostel Admission procedure:

  • For Boys the admission procedure is similar to girls, there is no reservation of seats.
  • In time: For boys in a time of hostel is 11 p.m.

Hostel facilities should be available for all the students on campus like other IITs/most NITs. This will also provide a safe and good environment for students.

If you are staying in a hostel in NLSIU Bangalore then you should take the things that are required by you daily as a part of your utilities. You should either buy them from a nearby market or bring them from your home. 

Following are a few list of items that you must carry with you:
