Few of my friends attend NIT Calicut and they were able to give me some information regarding the hostel on campus. 

• More than half of the hostel buildings appear to be old and rustic. They were built about 50 years ago but they still serve the basic required standard.
• Apart from your own room, everything else is cleaned almost every day. You will have to clean your room on your own.
• The first-year students are allocated rooms based on a 4 sharing system.
• For the second-year students who reside in hostel C, one room is allocated to three students. For those of the students who reside in Mega, the rooms are allocated on a two-sharing system.
• For third-year students residing in hostels B and C, one room is shared by three students.
• In the fourth year, usually, single rooms are allocated but due to renovation in hostel E, some of the rooms are allocated on a two-sharing basis.
• The food at the messes is sometimes good and sometimes bad. If you are willing to spend some extra money, you can make up for it.
• Internet connectivity is good. On some days the download speed goes up to 12 megabytes per second.
• From the second year onwards, there is no restriction imposed on boys regarding entry/exit time. Girls have permission to stay out till 9 pm.

NIT Calicut hostels are good in comparison to many engineering institutions in the country. You will enjoy your engineering life at the hostels there.

Amity University hostels have different fees for different rooms. You have to pay INR 15,000 one-time deposit fees, which are excluded from the hostel fee. In the hostel fee, mess food is excluded, you have to pay a mess fee separately. But the laundry and cleaning facility comes under the hostel fee.

The Amity hostels are in good and clean condition with a good food facility. You can get different types of food services with different price ranges. Therefore, you can comfortably live there.

IET Lucknow has decent infrastructural facilities. Out of these, hostel facilities are available for boys and girls separately. The following are the highlights.

• The hostels of the college are on the campus.
• The institute has six boys’ hostels and two girls’ hostels.
• The rooms are well-furnished with a 24X7 power supply with backup.
• The total capacity of the hostels is 1500 undergraduate and postgraduate students.
• The elected student representatives in the committee manage the hostels.
• It has a mess, and the food is hygienic.
• Other things include indoor and outdoor sports areas, water purifiers, TV, telephone, water cooler, and more.

There is no specific list of things required in the IET Lucknow hostel. However, it is better to carry a formal outfit, relevant documents, and sports gear of your favourite ones. All other regular things like a bucket, toiletries, locks, and wellness products, can be found in the nearby markets.

There are hostel facilities available for First-year students and it is comparatively superior to all colleges in the city. LNCT has a reputation for having a good discipline, this helps them to maintain a superior quality of education too. You can see the same discipline in the Hostel facility and it makes up for a very good environment to be productive.

The Hostel has rules and regulations of its own for you to follow. The facility is optional. You may or may not choose to live on campus. You need to follow the rules and not damage any property, it will be a smooth sail for you then. The campus also follows a strict anti-ragging policy so your stay is safe.

There are various facilities available if you choose to live on campus:

• The mess serves 4 meals a day with a slight variation in the menu. You can avail these meals complimentary with your accommodation.
• There is a TV room for entertainment purposes
• There is a reading room for students to work together in groups and also do some light reading or studying
• You can play Table tennis, badminton, football, Cricket in the TT room or on the ground.
• There is a gym too but you will be charged extra if you choose to sign up for it.

You should definitely choose to live on campus because you will find the best people there and make friends for a lifetime. Also, making memories while you are still in college is still something we all want.

There is no such compulsion to stay in the hostel at KIIT. It depends on the student’s choice if the student is a day boarder then they can travel by bus or their own transport. The bus service is free for KIITians. A KIIT student can avail the bus service anytime.

If the student is not a day boarder then they can definitely opt for the hostel because it gets hard to find a place in BBSR at a reasonable price. Hostel life in KIIT would be beneficial for the student because of group studies and nearby facilities which cannot be found in other places that easily.

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. 

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.
