How are the International Hostels in Anna University?

KY
Kundan Yadav Posted On : December 16th, 2022
B.E in Electronics and Instrumentation., Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Expected 2023

The international hostels at Anna University are one of the best hostel facilities provided by a government university. The facilities here are like no other hostel. The hostels provide:

  • Air-conditioned rooms

  • Electrical appliances like a geyser, fridge, and microwave

  • The hostel also has industrial washing machines with dryers

All these amenities make international hostels in Anna University top notch. The only drawback is that now the administration has started accepting local students into international hostels just because they pay a lot of money.

Does having an arrear during the first year in Anna University affect our chances of getting placed?

SJ
Sidhharth Jain Posted On : December 28th, 2022
Studied Industrial Engineering at Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India

There are two things you should be aware of: current arrears and arrears history. The current arrear is the one for which you have not yet cleared the paper at the time of placement. To put it simply, they are the unresolved papers you have in the seventh and eighth semesters, i.e. during the placement season.

The history of arrears is the one you cleared at the time of placement, but it will remain in your academic records. Every company has its own criteria for selecting candidates, but the majority of companies (say, 98%) will not hire a student who is currently in arrears. What's more, you wouldn't be able to attend even large IT companies.

So, to get to the point, having an arrear in the first semester will not affect your placements, but you should complete the paper by the sixth semester (for non-circuit branches) or the end of the second year (for circuit branches) as placements begin a little earlier, such as having internship opportunities in the third year in great companies such as Microsoft ( for CS and IT). If you are a mechanical engineer and have an arrear and clear it, you will be unable to attend some good companies such as Hyundai, Daimler(Benz), and others.

Which university is best, VTU or Anna University?

AJ
Arshit Jain Posted On : December 28th, 2022
B,Tech in Information Technology & Computing, Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2012)

This question is extremely challenging to address. However, by examining a few statistics, you can determine which university is superior.

First and foremost, both of these institutions are Technical Universities for their respective states. If VTU is the Technical University of Karnataka, Anna is the Technical University of Tamil Nadu. This means that all engineering institutions in the state (colleges and not deemed or private universities) are affiliated with these Universities (with very few exceptions). In 1978, Anna University in Chennai was established as a separate university. Anna University was founded 44 years ago. VTU was founded in 1998 as a full-fledged technical university, and it is now 24 years old.

When it comes to student satisfaction at both of these universities, Anna University receives more positive feedback than VTU. In addition, in terms of university controversies and irregularities, VTU has had many problems, corruption, chaos, and friction in the last decade, whereas Anna University has been more peaceful, regular, and flawless in recent times. Anna University is the only technical university in India that has awarded the most PhDs, whereas VTU Ph.D. is a never-ending process due to the University's extreme irregularities. Anna University has some disadvantages, but it is slightly better than VTU.

Which ranks higher, VIT or Anna University Chennai?

KA
Karim Avram Posted On : December 16th, 2022
M.E Aeronautical Engineer from Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2018)

First of all, don’t trust the official figures regarding rankings for colleges. They are misleading and are meant for advertisement purposes only. No good college needs to show itself at the top of the rankings. 

Now comparing VIT and Anna University, Anna University is definitely better in the ranking than VIT. Its CEG branch is at another level and not on par with VIT at all. Some points that support this opinion are:

  • Student quality at Anna University is better than at VIT.

  • VIT is a private university therefore more expensive than AU

  • The curriculum is harder in AU than in VIT, but the assessments are direct and easy here.

  • Placement opportunities are better at AU because of the variety of companies that visit the campus in contrast to the mass IT recruits that happen in VIT.

All these points strongly favor my opinion. One thing to keep in mind here is that when I say Anna University is better I mean the main campuses (CEG, MIT, ACT) not the affiliated colleges.

Could anyone explain how CBSE students get admission to Anna university?

KS
Karan Singh Posted On : December 5th, 2022
BE in Electrical Engineering, Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2018)

In Anna University counseling, CBSE students are not given any special consideration. Officially, they claim that CBSE students' grades are moderated, but the process is as follows. They take into account the highest mark obtained by a student in that subject across India. Because it will be 100, if you get 85, your grade will not change.

The CBSE cut-off is calculated in such a way that,

((Mathematics marks) + ((Physics + Chemistry marks)/2))

As a result of the cut-off calculation, CBSE students are always at a significant disadvantage when competing with state board students. Even if a student achieves 95 in each of the three subjects, the cut-off is 190, which is low when compared to state board students.

The following are some of the other options:

SSN has its own meritorious management quota. If you are chosen, you will be subjected to a test and an interview.

Many other colleges, such as Loyola and Rajalakshmi, provide meritorious management seats that you can apply for.

What is the condition of the Anna University hostel?

SK
Saladi Mani Kumar Posted On : December 19th, 2022
B.E. from College of Engineering Guindy, Tamil Nadu, India (Graduated 2015)

Unlike the general belief, the hostels at Anna University are indeed in good condition. People spread false information regarding its conditions. Some points that support this fact are

  • The hostel management has taken keen interest in maintaining the quality of the hostel. 
  • Separate boys and girls hostels are available with separate mess facilities also.
  • Good Wi-Fi connection with restrictions on some websites help students concentrate on their studies.
  • Your hostel room will be shared by 4 people so you can make friends for your lifetime.
  • The food here is good but is repeated a lot and you might get a bit bored after some time.
  • A TV hall has been opened for entertainment purposes. You can spend your leisure time there either watching TV or reading newspapers.
  • The bathrooms are clean and proper hygiene is maintained within the hostels.

All these points made me believe that the hostels of Anna University are not as bad as people often portray them.
