If you're considering studying at IIT Mandi, here are some points you might find useful:
One of my friends had some of the best experiences of his life at the hostels in IIT Mandi. They are some of the good hostels you will find in our country. There are a lot of facilities available that you can use. Some of them are as follows:
However, when it comes to college life, you might not get enough time to spend considering the fast pace of academics at the college. From my friend’s time, because of the compact semester schedule, you will probably not have the time to breathe and relax.
In a short span of 4 months, there are a number of activities that you will probably decide to participate in. These include inter and intra sports events as well as tech cult fests. If you are socially active you will definitely be very busy throughout the year. Otherwise, life here is as good as any other fully residential engineering college.
You will find people giving mixed reviews regarding life on the campus but personally, my friend liked the life here a lot. When it comes to ragging, you will not experience any in my opinion. The seniors are quite friendly and they will help you out wherever required. Some of them have even become my friends.
Other things you should know:
The only drawback is that you will have to leave your city life behind when you come to IIT Mandi. There isn’t much to explore around with no malls and theatres. Other than that, you will definitely have a good college life here.
