Aryabhatta Hostel is the best hostel to live in when at IIT BHU. This is due to the following reasons:

• It is the most recently built hostel i.e. in the year 2016 and has all the latest facilities in the bathrooms and with the doors and windows.
• The rooms are most spacious among all the hostels in the campus.
• It’s the nearest to Hyderabad Gate, DG Cornet, and CV Raman.
• The Swimming Pool is just behind the hostel.
• The hostel is allotted to the 1st year students in undergraduate, M.Tech, and Ph.D. people.
• The common hall is so big that you can play cricket there!
• It’s 3 floors tall and that makes it the only hostel with 3 floors on campus.
• There’s the best badminton court amongst all hostels and including gymkhana.
• It has 3 canteens, again the most in a single hostel on campus.

Although this may vary from person to person. Aryabhatta is a hostel which you’d like coming into college as you’ll be having high expectations from college and this is the hostel with the most modern facilities. This might change once you progress in college life and by 4th year you’d love to be in Rajputana and Limbdi Hostels as they’re the centre point of the college and are pretty much near to everything essential for a student.

During a normal placement season, there are about 4 to 5 days in which major companies hire for summer placements. The top companies will come within the first two days. You can think of applying then right away so you have higher chances of getting converted and landing a job.

If you are looking for an internship, some things will be in your hands while a few might not. During your first three months at the college, you will be trained quite well for group discussion and personal interview. Your overall communication and subject knowledge will also improve especially in the field of supply chain and operations.

Companies usually shortlist students who will be involved in the company process. Your chances of being shortlisted highly depend on your previous academic grades, work experience, your CV, and also the company requirements.

The highest stipend for two months is about INR 3 lakhs with an average of about INR 1.28 lakhs for two months.

Overall, ensure that you have a well-rounded CV to help increase your chances of getting selected. 

One of my cousins was a part of NITIE Mumbai and has a better outlook regarding the same. Here is what he has to say,

• NITIE Mumbai is equipped with a 16 storied hostel apartment for boys, commonly called the Taylor Hostel, and almost 8 to 10 equipped for the girls, mostly known as the Gilbreth Hostel. 
• The girls’ hostel is quite old and outmoded.
• The rooms of the Gilbreth Hostel, however, are quite a bit more spacious than what is in the boys’ hostel.
• The hostel arrives with 27 rooms on every floor, with a twin sharing policy added. 
• It comes with two beds, two tables and chairs, and two individual cupboards.
• The rooms are gigantic and completely airy. 
• The view side of the institute’s hostel is beyond explanation as well. It overlooks the Vihar Lake on one side, while the Hiranandani Gardens on another. 
• The food you can avail in two messes is commonly known as Sarabhai and Taylor hall. Mostly, the food quality remains constantly the same either way. 
• The hostels also have table tennis courts, and mounted television sets as well.

These are what you should know before finally deciding anything.
