DB
Danish Bose Posted On : August 7th, 2023
Studied at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology

This is what Hostel K in Thapar University looks like

Thapar university

The Hostel K in Thapar University is assigned to 2nd-year students. The hostel has provisions for both AC and non-AC rooms. The rooms are well-furnished and spacious.

Here are a few important points regarding the living conditions of the students here

  • The major drawback of this hostel is its mess that serves poor quality food. The mess is run by untrained staff that serves food that tastes pretty bad. 
  • The level of hygiene is another problem here. The large number of washrooms makes it difficult to maintain cleanliness and only a few are properly functional. 
  • Safety is also not taken care of and most of the corridors have no CCTV cameras. Only the entrance of the hostel has CCTVs.

Overall, Hostel K has poor living conditions and authorities need to take care of the mess facilities here especially.

Is the four people sharing hostel room in IET Lucknow a good idea anyway or in which semester should I leave the hostel and take a PG? How is PG life?

AR
Aman Rana Posted On : August 3rd, 2021
Studied at the Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow

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.
