Is it mandatory to reside at the IIM Bangalore hostel if one gets admitted for the PGPM course?

AP
Axar Patel Posted On : November 21st, 2022
MBA from Indian Institute of Management Bangalore (Graduated 2017)

Yes, if you enroll in the PGPM program, you must reside in a hostel for the first year; you can choose to live off campus in the second year, but no one does.

It is truly beneficial that one must live in a hostel; otherwise, it is extremely difficult to complete all of the submissions and work in groups. Group project meetings are usually held at 11 p.m. or later, around midnight, making it difficult to attend if you are not on campus.

Furthermore, because subscriptions for these resources are validated using IP addresses, you will be unable to use them outside of the IIM campus.

However, the amazing part is that the campus is so beautiful that once you start staying there, you will despise the idea of staying anywhere else.

For UG girls IIT KGP has two main halls of residence: Sarojini Naidu Hall (SN) and Mother Teresa Hall(MT).

SN Hall

The Hall firmly believes in its motto: Sanskrita Striya Shakti. Some highlights of this Hall are

  • The hall is divided into A, B, H, E, F, G, N, NR, W, and S blocks in four different buildings.
  • The Hostel boasts its own basketball court, a well-equipped gym for health freaks, and table tennis facilities.
  • Singing and dancing activities are practiced in the music room which has all the necessary facilities for the same.
  • The hall also has its own student-driven library that issues the required books to all the wingmates for a complete semester.
  • Food at this hostel is pretty good, and there is a night canteen food stall and a Nescafe within the hall that satisfies the untimely cravings of the hostellers.
  • There are two common rooms; an old one and a comparatively new one that has a TV Connection, projector screen and is well furnished 
  • You get the privilege to stay at the same hall where famous personalities like Dr Parvati Dev (B.S.1968) Director, Stanford University School of Medicine, and President, IIT Foundation, Dr Nina Saxena (B Tech 1992), stayed.

MT Hall

This hall is similar in almost all aspects to SN Hall. Specifically talking about girls, the hostels are safe and there is a sense of freedom like no other.

Despite the relatively recent establishment of IIM Bodh Gaya, the hostel life at the institution has thrived in terms of culture, fun, facilities, quality, and competitiveness.

During the orientation period, current students will assist you in adjusting to the challenging environment of Bihar. You will find yourself building a large network of connections in a short period of time.

Once the academic schedule is complete and you return to your new home, exciting activities await you. You can choose from a variety of activities, including sports like basketball, volleyball, cricket, football, badminton, and running, in the various courts and stadiums within the temporary campus. If you prefer indoor activities, there are options such as table tennis and carrom, or you can watch TV in the common room. For those interested in public speaking, there are opportunities to debate, discuss and engage in friendly competitions. The drama club, as well as singing, dancing, comedy, art, and reading clubs, are also available. For those who enjoy cooking, there is a fully equipped kitchen to make your favorite meals. And if you prefer to just eat, the canteen is open 24/7 to satisfy your cravings.

Competitions and events are a regular feature of life at IIM, and you will sense the competitive atmosphere among your peers. However, the more you help others, the more help you will receive, which can help you grow your networks, strengthen friendships, and potentially win competitions. With the diverse cultures represented at IIM, there are many major festivals celebrated throughout the year, which provide the opportunity to experience and learn about different traditions and customs. As a growing institution, you will also have the opportunity to shape the culture of the institution.

In summary, hostel life at an IIM is challenging, yet exciting and fun, hectic but rewarding, and demanding but skill-building. It is a unique and fantastic experience.

MBA Operations Management, Symbiosis International University

Symbiosis Bangalore offers a residential MBA program so you will have to stay on the college campus itself. Although it would be beneficial for you because the college accommodation and food facilities are cheap.

In the 2nd year, you will have late hour classes so the college accommodation will be helpful for you. If you are interested to stay out of the campus then you may have to pay a fine of Rs. 100 per day. Staying on campus will help you in learning, developing teamwork, and developing interpersonal skills. The college campus has a lot of activities, social, educational, cultural, and recreational activities which you will enjoy.

How is the hostel life at NIT Kurukshetra?

SR
Sumit Roy Posted On : September 2nd, 2023
Studied at National Institute of Technology, Kurukshetra

My brother was a student at NIT Kurukshetra and was allotted a room in H-3 Chakrdhar Bhawan on the campus. He had two other roommates from Rajasthan. Initially, he felt awkward sharing his living space with someone else but after a few days, he adapted well to it. They became great friends, who would discuss papers and help each other in preparing for tests. He realized that the rooms and food don’t make hostel life but your friends do.

He befriended some really good people who became his supporters in the first year. They would help her in all times of need and hang out in their free time. 

He had the best hostel life experience thanks to his amazing friends and the room and the hostel have a special place in his heart. He heard from his friends at other colleges like NIT Patna, VIT Vellore, BITS Goa, etc. that their hostel life was rather restrictive.

He was glad he chose BIT Kurukshetra which gave him some amazing memories and friends for life.

How are the hostel facilities for M.Tech students in VNIT Nagpur?

Raktim Tarafdar Posted On : November 20th, 2023

As a girl hosteller, I can shed some light on the hostel facilities for M.Tech girls at VNIT Nagpur.

Girl students get a single room from the first year of M.Tech itself. The girls’ hostels are clean, but the rules and regulations are strict. One such rule is the hostel curfew timing which changes each year. It won’t be more than 10pm in any case.

Overall, the hostel facilities are good at VNIT.
