Is it compulsory to live in hostel at KIIT?

MB
Mansi Bhatnagar Posted On : February 15th, 2024

No, it is not compulsory to stay in the KIIT hostels. You can stay at some place else too. The mess food of the electronics hostel is not good. This is why some of my batchmates have rented apartments for themselves. They can cook, and they have an easy mode of transport like scooty/bike. Moreover, renting is not an expensive option over here. It is affordable.

One of my friends had been a student of UIT- RGPV and here are the things that I got to know about the hostel facilities through him. 

  • Recently, the college campus went through a renovation which made sure that the hostels and the guest rooms are well maintained and fully hygienic. 
  • The college campus has numerous facilities for the students such as good internet connectivity, the students are able to enjoy all the basic necessities and the hostel facilities as well. 
  • The campus has greenery around it, public transports such as rikshaw are easily available and the roads are well constructed. 
  • The only thing you will miss there is the homely taste of food. As the mess is run by a private contractor, it isn’t that satisfying. 

Overall, you will enjoy the hostel life thoroughly at UIT RGPV.

Are IET Lucknow hostels government or private?

AL
Abhishek Lakhra Posted On : August 5th, 2021
B.Tech Instrumentation Engineering, Institute of Engineering and Technology, Lucknow (2016)

The hostels at IET Lucknow are State government-funded. It is the same as the college hostels. The hostel and bedrooms can be made amazing by looking and focusing more on the maintenance standards of the hostel. However, it has been observed that a newly constructed hostel has been inaugurated and it is in much better conditions.

In terms of mess facility, it is a private cum cooperative basis. The mess accounting is being done by the student head of the hostel called as Mess secretary. The mess service is pretty much good. The menu is as per the students.

There is just one problem that students face the most is the poorly maintained washrooms. The internet facility is also good. Other than these, the hostel is fine.

Is it compulsory to stay in a hostel at NALSAR and NLSIU?

RT
Rakesh Todi Posted On : September 8th, 2021
Studied at National Law School of India University, Bangalore, graduated in 2020

For the students of the first year who are studying in NLSIU, it is compulsory for them to stay in hostels. However, the option of going home on weekends will always be open for them. Just fill up a permission form and you are good to go. Someone I know used to be a student of NLSIU and she and her batchmates used to visit their families this way.

If you live in Bangalore, you can travel from your house to the institute without asking for permission.

After you have completed your first year you will be able to live off-campus. Knowing the busy traffic of Bangalore, it may get difficult to travel to and from the campus.

This is not allowed in NALSAR, though. You will have to spend the entirety of your course in the hostels.

FY
Fayaz Yousuf Posted On : May 31st, 2023
MBBS from All India Institute of Medical Sciences

AIIMS Delhi does have its own rules and regulations policy but adherence to these is rarely seen within the campus. A few hostel rules included are

  1. You are prohibited from installing your own AC, but almost every room has an AC.
  2. You are not allowed to make any modifications in the room but most students renovate their rooms as per their needs.
  3. The rules prohibit students from inviting other students to their rooms without permission but even students of opposite gender can be seen together in the same room.
  4. As per the hostel rules, AIIMS students are not allowed to bring electrical appliances but most students have installed their own refrigerators, microwaves, and toasters. 
  5. The hostel prohibits students from staying with their families at home but some residents of Delhi go back to their homes daily.

All in all, AIIMS Delhi hostel rules are just for formality, and rarely does the administration implement them.

How's hostel life at NMIMS Mumbai?

SP
Sherina Phutela Posted On : March 9th, 2023
BCom(Hons) from SVKM's NMIMS (2019)

If you are planning to stay at the MKM Sanghavi hostel, here are some things you need to keep in mind:

  • Food: The mess facility available charges Rs75 per thali, which can be expensive if you don't have someone to share it with. The mess is open from 7:30 am to 10 pm, but the breakfast is often served late. If you come back to the hostel after 10 pm, you will need to order food from outside.
  • Washing: The washing machine area on the first floor has only a few machines that work. With a hostel of 100 girls, it can be difficult to wash your clothes, especially on Sundays. Additionally, if you have erratic timings, it may be challenging to do your laundry.
  • Water: Although there is a machine on every floor, most girls prefer to order their own Bisleri water as rumors say that there have been worms in the pumped water. Also, hot water is available for a limited time period and often takes a long time to fill up.
  • Fridge: There is a fridge on every floor where you can keep your milk tetra packs with your name on them. However, some floors may not have a fridge, and you will need to ask the authorities to install one.
  • Curfew: The curfew is at 11 pm, but you can still enter the hostel after that time. However, you cannot leave the hostel after 11 pm. During exams and placements, people may stay in the library or other areas until late, and the hostel will allow them to enter.
  • Rooms: The rooms are spacious and big, with most of them being three-sharing and a few being twin-sharing. All beds are single beds with box beds, and you get a study table and a cupboard. Lighting in the rooms is inadequate, and you may need to use table lamps.
  • Bathrooms: The bathrooms are well-maintained, with separate areas for bathing, toilets, and wash basins. However, the lighting is not sufficient, and the plug points may not work.
  • Open drain: The hostel has a large open water drain behind it that leads to a lot of mosquitoes in the hostel. The common area on each floor overlooks the drain, and if you have a room with a balcony, it may open to the drain.

How does a first-year student take a hostel at SOE CUSAT?

PN
Priyam Naskar Posted On : July 28th, 2021
Studied at IIJNM Bangalore (2019)

One of my friends is from CUSAT SOE. I can provide his experience during his first year at the CUSAT hostel.

  • For getting a hostel at CUSAT, you will need to fill an application form available on the website and submit it in the office.
  • Earlier the hostels were allocated on the basis of seniority and your distance from the home. But now, you will be given a hostel on the basis of your CAT score and usually, first-year students are allocated first.
  • You should make sure that you have submitted your application form before the start of your semesters.
  • Although the CAT score is given the first preference, there are other factors like distance from your home state and your performance in academics.

In case you do not get a hostel then you can try outside hostels which are located nearby to the college.
