Porismita Bhuyan 's Review On University Of Science And Technology - [USTM], Ri-Bhoi

Admission:

As a student of assam i never thought of taking admission in out side University but one of uncle works here so he suggested me to take admission in this university. I also got confirmation from Lakhimpur commerce college and Royal global university but when i visited UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY MEGHALAYA looking to the campus and hostel was also inside the campus so that i decided to take admission here. I have not got any rejection from any university because had applied for these universities only. Admission process is not really very tough as this is a private university but the process is bit lengthy and to get admission in some department (b.tech, m.tech, MBA etc) of this university students have to give entrance exam which is conducted in the university itself.

Mrigakshi Mazumdar's Review On University Of Science And Technology - [USTM], Ri-Bhoi

Admission:

I applied for Handique Girls College, Cotton University etc. So I got my name in the second list mostly because it was Covid time and the cuttoffs were extremely high which made it difficult for admission so finally I chose USTM after getting to know about the available course. I chose my college because of the availability of a course like BA Administration and Governance which is an early start of civils preparation or any other government exam preparation.
