Can you join a hostel in BIMTECH-Delhi after a few months of getting enrolled? Or is immediate joining compulsory?

TA
Tithi Aggrawal Posted On : May 4th, 2023
Studied at Birla Institute of Management Technology

As a full-time residential program, one has to move into the hostel as soon as the year starts and have to stay there for 2 years. It's also very handy, since the BIMTECH campus is a busy place with a lot of academic training and other things going on all the time. Staying on campus makes sure that you won't miss any of these chances for peer learning and that you'll keep up with all your classes.

Students get great housing and campus services at BIMTECH. The site is fully AC and Wi-Fi. There are hostels for both boys and girls. Both dorms have living spaces that are modern. The site has a Medical Centre with an ambulance available 24*7. In addition, there is a cafeteria,an eating hall, a well-equipped gym and sports facilities, a Tuck Shop, an ATM, and more.

Is Wi-Fi is available at the IIEST Shibpur hostel?

NG
Nabarun Ghanti Posted On : March 14th, 2021

On papers, there is. Each floor has a Wi-Fi router or sometimes 2 Wi-Fi routers installed for the students and also there is 1 JAXB Wi-Fi installed at a common point amidst all the hostels for common access.

 But in reality, you would consider yourself lucky if you are in rooms like 01, 03 or 10, 11. These are the extreme most rooms on each floor and get good Wi-Fi connections with decent speed. If you get a room near to the router you might get a speed around 5mbps or sometimes even 10mbps with an average speed of 2mbps. But if you are not, then you have to depend on luck. Only when others are not using, you might get some decent speed around 1mbps.

Moreover, the college Wi-Fi blocks many sites. For example, you can’t open YouTube, till the afternoon. The library and departmental Wi-Fi are far better than the hostel ones. Sometimes, the CS and Chemistry dept. WiFi download speed reaches 100mbps.

How is the hostel for girls studying PhD at IIT Kharagpur?

AA
Aishwarya Anand Posted On : March 28th, 2023
Ph. D. from Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur (IIT KGP)

Most MTech and Ph.D. female students are assigned the following hostels

  1. Sister Nivedita
  2. Rani Laxmibai
  3. Gokhale halls of residence
  4. Mother Teresa hall

All these hostels are in close proximity to the main building and entrance thus making it easy for female students to commute to and fro from the hostel.

A typical room in these halls of residence consists of proper bedding, a table, a chair, and a LAN port. Every hostel has its own mess faculty that works under the supervision of the hall management committee or private contractor. The best part is the flexible environment posing no restrictions on girls and no discrimination between boys and girls. 

IIT Kharagpur offers the best hostel life with a splash of greenery, tranquility, and a serene environment.

What are the hostel fees for M.Tech aspirants at VNIT Nagpur and how is the condition of the hostels and the food served there?

Namrata Das Posted On : November 3rd, 2023

VNIT Nagpur is one of the most expensive NITs, and its hostels are at par with private college hostels. 

The new NBCC constructed hostels have been functional for a few years.The hostels are provided with a TV room and a Table Tennis room. Each hostel room has high speed LAN ports.

The mess food is nowhere close to home cooked meals, but it is better than the one offered by tiffin services. North Indian and South Indian staples are served in the menu, along with some dishes from the Marathi cuisine. 

The hostel administration and mess contractors aren’t student friendly at all, but you’ll learn to manage things with time. The hostel fee is on an average, Rs. 32,700 per sem. You can expect a refund of around Rs. 5-10k for an academic year. 

Thus, you can expect a decent stay at the VNIT hostels.

How are the mess and canteens at IIIT, Guwahati?

KG
Kashish Gupta Posted On : May 2nd, 2021
Studied at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Guwahati (2020)

IIIT Guwahati has two canteens, one in the hostel building and one in the academic building. 

  • The canteen at IIIT Guwahati is average. It is just like the ones that are common among all the government colleges. It is not much developed and high standard, however, it serves its purpose. 
  • The canteens at both the girls’ and boys’ hostel are allowed to operate till late at night. The canteen in the academic building is operated from 10 am to 11 pm.
  • There is also a food van available that delivers food directly to the hostel.
  • The mess service at IIIT Guwahati is just fine. It serves three-time meals; breakfast, lunch, and dinner. 
  • There is also a tea facility for an extra charge. It is not included in the mess charge and has to be paid separately. 
  • The breakfast and lunch served are usually vegetarian. At the dinner, the students are given an option to choose between a vegetarian special item and a non-vegetarian special item. 
  • The taste is good and the food is of satisfactory level. The non-vegetarian food served is really good.

Both the mess and canteen are not high profile but are satisfactory. Now, tenders are offered, thus making a competition between caterers which is a positive sign for improvement and better service.

How can I get a single hostel room in MMMUT from my 1st year in B.Tech in 2021?

VS
Vinay Singh Posted On : November 12th, 2021
B.Tech from Madan Mohan Malaviya University of Technology (2019)

You can’t get a single hostel room at MMMUT in the first year, second year, and third year. Because the number of rooms is less than the number of students. You may get a double sharing room. 

If you want a single room, you will need to find accommodation outside. But it’s better to live in the hostel. That way you can group study with your .friends. Staying on campus is also quite fun.
