The infrastructure of college and neatness of the college is excellent and the scholarship facility is also soo good

Dislike

Because I love it, the faculty-student ratio is 10:190, the qualifications of the faculty are very poor, and the teaching method is projector mode.
The college does not provide any internships, but it will give permission to go outside for internships.
We will have three shifts of scholarship from the government - Jagananna Vidya and Vasathi Deevana. I think its not too bad when compared to the students of corporate institutions.
The canteen was neither good nor healthy. The hostels are located nearby the college, and co-education is practiced here. The hostels are allocated based on academic years.
Some students in private schools are also very poor, so they must also be selected.
