Which hostel is better in Sharda University, Vivekananda or Mandela?
A friend of mine used to stay at the Mandela Hostel. It had attached bathrooms and laundry service as well. The hostel is costly and the quality of food at the hostel is also good.
The features of Mandela Hostel and Vivekananda Hostel are:
- The rooms of Mandela Hostel are spacious and are of better quality. One room is given to two occupants.
- Mandela Hostel does not have balconies but the Vivekananda Hostel does.
- Mandela Hostel provides a nice view of the campus. The view changes based on your room in the Vivekananda Hostel.
- In addition to that, there is also a barbershop in the Mandela hostel and a café. There is unity among the students who live in Mandela.
The atmosphere of the Mandela Hostel is calm mainly because students of different states live and mingle among themselves. Vivekananda Hostel is for the freshers which give it a very warm and friendly atmosphere.
What is the hostel fee at BHU including mess charge and everything?
Firstly, the hostel fees at BHU vary from course to course. So all I can do is give you a rough estimate through the information I got from my sister who pursued B.Sc from BHU.
Hostel Fees
- 1st semester stood: INR 2666
- 2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th semester: INR 1290 (regular fee and hostel fee both)
- 3rd, 5th, and 7th: INR 3190 (regular fee and hostel fee)
Mess Charges:
- INR 40 for a simple diet
- INR 60 for special
- INR 80 for chicken
Usually, there are 2 diets a day and on Sundays, there is only one diet. But the Sunday meal is special so it is counted as a double diet. So the approximate price stands at INR 80-100 per day.
If you skip the meal or go home then you can tell Mess Maharaj and you won’t be charged.
How is the hostel life at Sharda University?
One of my seniors from school used to be a student of Sharda University and from what she has told me, the university has very good campus and the hostel facilities are some of the best he has come across. She spent a week thereafter graduation. Some of the features are:
- The entire campus of Sharda University is wifi enabled.
- The food from the mess is decent.
- There are double/triple sharing rooms in the hostels.
- There are several canteens within the campus.
- There are students from different countries like Afghanistan, Ethiopia, etc., making interaction with various nationalities possible
- During the month of Ramadan, there are separate food arrangements for students.
- Facilities for sports like basketball, football, cricket, etc are also in the campus.
Greater Noida is developed and if you are an outsider it would be a good idea if you take the hostel right after admission. The infrastructure of the university is amazing and there are AC/non AC rooms in the hostels as well. In addition to that, there are attached as well as common washrooms for the students. The hostels have laundries too where the first few washes are free for the students.
What hostel block should I choose for Manipal University Jaipur?
The first-year students at Manipal University don’t get to choose their blocks. They are only given two choices namely B1/B2 and B7. B1 and B2 are the oldest blocks of the university and usually accommodate freshers. B7 on the other hand is the newest boys' block.
If you ever get the chance to choose one between the two, I would suggest choosing B7. This block has been constructed recently and has brand-new infrastructure and facilities. Moreover, this block is closest to the mess, the gym. It also has amazing sports facilities.
So go for B7 unless you want to be under the guidance of your seniors. In that case, you can go for B1 or B2.

- In the second semester, few students leave the institute for a job or other purposes. So, three students are allotted to each room from then.
- Each washroom in Raman hostel has 5 bathrooms and 6 latrines of both kinds. There are 4 front wash basins too. No washing machine is provided in the hostel.
- Coming to the second year of M.Tech, students are allotted a PG hostel which is near the Computer Science department. It has 2-seater rooms, but the rooms are slightly more congested than those in Raman Hostel.
