IIM Bodh Gaya has three hostels

  1. Aryabhatta
  2. Bhaskara
  3. Hostel 3

Some major highlights of these hostels are

  • The hostels are co-Ed
  • The students are provided with single occupancy rooms 
  • The hostels are regularly cleaned and therefore have a hygienic environment
  • Every room has basic stuff like a table with locker, bed, mattress, shelves along with curtains
  • The hostel also provides laundry facilities 
  • 24/7 Free Wi-Fi accessibility makes it easy for the students to conduct research and indulge in online learning 
  • The hostel has a common room where you can spend leisure time with your peers playing games, watching movies or news or simply chatting. It has sofas, table tennis, TV, carrom, chess, and poker.
  • Healthy freaks can go to the gym situated above the common room that is decked with facilities 
  • The sports culture is highly promoted as Bodh Gaya has a basketball court, volleyball court, futsal court, football ground, and badminton court for sports enthusiasts.

Mess

Like the hostel facilities, the mess here is also very good. Every hostel has a separate mess. Food is provided according to the 4 meals per day program that includes breakfast, lunch, evening snacks, and dinner. Both non-veg and veg cuisines are available. The mess is large enough to accommodate 50-60 people at a time. Hygiene is strictly maintained and clean drinking water is provided.

So both the mess and hostel facilities at IIM Bodh Gaya are decent enough to ensure a smooth and comfortable hostel life.

The housekeepers at IIM Rohtak take good care of the hostels, which are well-designed.

Is it compulsory to stay in the hostel at IIM Rohtak for all 5 years while doing IPM there? Also, do they have a rigid academic session where 90 attendance is compulsory?

YC
Yash Chandra Posted On : January 18th, 2023
Studies at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (Expected 2024)

Yes, IPM and the majority of other programs are offered entirely in residence on all IIM campuses.

For the purpose of clarification, the attendance policy is actually 100% mandatory (at least on paper). You must now obtain permission to miss classes and leave campus. Medical emergencies, urgent family functions, and so on are examples of exceptions.

Other rules that affect the daily lives of students are:

  • Night curfews: First-year students are not permitted to leave their hostels after 10:30 p.m. Things become more relaxed as you advance in maturity level.
  • Lights out time: During the first month, this is usually strictly enforced until you get acclimatized. The light-out time was mostly kept on paper then.
  • Yoga: Yoga classes are required five days a week.
  • Restriction: You can leave campus without permission only on Sundays; otherwise, a gate pass is required. Again, as you become senior, this becomes less strict.
  • Discipline: Yes, there have been terminations based on disciplinary issues such as drinking, PDAs, and so on. As the other answer stated, you can't really escape.

What are the pros and cons of not having a hostel at FMS Delhi?

HB
Harnoor Bagga Posted On : January 10th, 2023
MBA Full-time in Finance, Faculty of Management Studies, University of Delhi (Graduated 2020)

The following are the benefits and drawbacks of not having a hostel at FMS, Delhi:

Pros:

  • When Freshers set out to arrange their own housing for the next two years, it was a completely new experience for them.
  • Helps to act as a bonding activity for the students of the new batch even before the start of the session.
  • Allows students to live according to their preferences for the next two years.
  • As a result, the two years are more relaxed than at other top B-Schools in the country because no unexpected classes can be scheduled after a certain time of day, unlike at other fully residential B-Schools.

Cons:

  • Students are put under additional pressure before the start of the session to arrange for their own lodging.
  • It raises the overall cost of the course for the next two years. Despite the fact that it is a two-year course for the rest of the world. Other than tuition, there are numerous other expenses, and the lack of a college hostel significantly increases them.
  • Less rigor than other fully residential B-SCHOOLS. Few IIMs even hold classes at 11 p.m. And it is viewed positively by corporations as rigor. However, this is not possible at FMS.

Thus, despite its pros and cons, it is a completely different experience that students should endure during their two wonderful years at FMS.

How are the IPM IIM Indore hostels?

PB
Praveen Singh Bakshi Posted On : January 2nd, 2023
Studied Indian Institute of Technology Jammu (Graduated 2021)

The hostels at IIM Indore keep changing over the years you spend in the college. Initially the first-year students are provided double occupancy rooms with the same gender. After the first year, single-occupancy rooms are made available 

The basic amenities include 

  • a fan
  • basic lighting
  • furniture for storage
  • study table

Only mattresses are provided while the rest of the bedding is to be arranged by the inmates only.

There are no attached bathrooms and about 5 to 8 rooms share one set of bathrooms which comprises two commodes, two bathrooms, and two wash basins. 

The hostels do not have washing machines, however, there is a laundromat, as well as the services of an on-campus washerman, are available for a nominal price. 

You are not allowed to bring your own electrical or electronic appliances like air coolers, refrigerators, individual TV sets, etc. You cannot bring your own vehicle also except for bicycles.

As far as the campus is concerned, classrooms are well-equipped and the campus has multiple mess and food joints, grocery store, medical center and medicine shop, fruits and vegetable store, washerman, barber, bank, post-office, ATMs, courier dispatch and delivery, photocopy and print shops, gyms and sports centers, and even two temples.

The lack of anything more than basic aims at facilitating a basic lifestyle at the hostel and not a lavish one.
