The admission process for the college occurred on July 14, 2016, in Chandigarh. Despite adverse weather, applicants completed an in-person admissions procedure involving document verification, online form submission, and counseling for college selection. Admission was secured through the management quota due to ineligibility for scholarships. The college is praised for its well-qualified and supportive faculty, who use effective teaching strategies. Each semester includes at least four subjects with a mix of theory and practical exams.
Theory exams require a minimum score of 23 out of 70 to pass. Students take both mid-semester and final exams, with final exams scoring up to 80 marks. A notable faculty-to-student ratio is maintained, although some challenges include class cancellations and incomplete syllabus coverage. The BCA program's fees start at Rs. 20,576 for the first semester, gradually decreasing in subsequent semesters. Fees align with Panjab University guidelines and are generally affordable, with options for deductions or scholarships.
PGGC offers robust placement opportunities, with around 80% of students securing jobs annually. Companies like Infosys, Wipro, and Amazon participate in biannual job fests. The average placement package is 5 lakhs per annum, with the highest reaching 5 crore per annum for an MBA student. Eligibility for placement starts in the 3rd year, requiring at least 60% grades. While the college doesn't offer internships, companies like LG and Microsoft provide opportunities.
Scholarships are available for SC/ST, minority, and specially-abled students, with girls receiving 30% of all scholarships. Scholarships range from Rs. 3000 to Rs. 5000 per subject annually, and a government scholarship of Rs. 10,000 is awarded for securing over 75% in 12th-grade exams. Education loans are also facilitated, and the total BCA degree cost ranges from Rs. 1.5 to 1.8 lakhs, with semester fees between Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 29,865.
