Remarks

Comparing to placements my College is one of the best in India. Last year my College secured 38th position in NRIF ranking. But due to more restrictions and rules hostel and food. People will not prefer this College.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I chose Civil engineering. When someone says the word Engineer, i used to think a man with safety cap in a construction site. And i also had an interest in this side. Class internal assessment (CIA) will be conducted thrice a semester and the best of two will be considered for semester exam as internal marks. 50 marks internal and 50 marks for semester exam. Labs are well maintained with modern equipments.

Placement Experience

4.5

Sastra is known for placements. More than 90% of the students will be placed in companies at the end of the College. Our College will provide internship. We will be doing internship early once(summer internship) technically oriented.

College Events

We will be celebrating technical fest- DAKSH, Cultural fest- KURUKSASTRA and COLLOSEUM for sports. Will be held on even semester. This will be taking part 3 days per event. Sports events will be fun.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure is not much expensive. Per semester the fee will be around 70k, hostel fee per annum is around 15k and mess fee per month is around 4k. Compared to Anna University fee structure is expensive but comparing to other deemed University the fee structure is feasible.

Fees and Financial Aid

Students who are scored more marks in their state board/CBSC has a special scholarship. Those who are having CGPA above 8.5 are having scholarship for GRE classes and further master studies. But there is no scholarship for other students.

Campus Life

For Cricket, football, volleyball, Tennis there constructed separate ground, court. We have an indoor stadium which includes gym, shuttle court. And coaches are available for mentioned sports. But they didn't considered for indoor sports.

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Infrastructure of the hostel is not pretty good but service of the workers will be good. Students are allowed to go to their home 2 times per semester. There are more restrictions for hostel(even heaters, kettles are not allowed).

External Expense: Rs.2000 - Rs.4000

Alumni/Alumna

Seniors are very helpful for clarifying doubts and in explaination of many events that are taking part in our College. They are conducting many workshops for exposure. Ragging/bullyness is strictly offense in our College.

Admission

I had an interest in doing engineering in one of the best Colleges in Tamil Nadu. So i chose Sastra. I refered Google and asked friends, relatives and alumni of this College. Admissionn process is done in the criteria of 75% of JEE mains and 25% of State board/CBSC total marks.

Faculty

Faculties are so kind and helpful for the students. They are enough qualified for teaching B.Tech degree. They will be knowing what difficulty the students would face and brings up a solution for it.

The College that Balances Academics, Opportunities and Overall Growth

Likes

The college provides numerous opportunities to participate in hackathons, technical events, project competition, and cultural activities. This gives students a chance to explore their interest.
Faculty members are approachable and students can interact with them comfortably regarding academics, projects, and other college - related activities. Good staff interaction makes it easier to clarify doubt and seek guidance.
The availability of both technical and cultural events gives students to take break, socialize, discover new interest. Students can improve their problem-solving, teamwork, communication, and presentation skills by participating in competitions.

Placement Experience:

Easwari offers placement training and oppotunities with recruiters like TCS, Infosys, Amazon, Accenture and Goldmann Sachs. Reported 2026 statistics include 50LPA highest package and 98.25% placement rate. I aim to become Software developer and will build my skills through projects and internships.

Dislikes

Campus is not very huge since it's in the centre of the city but the outside shops make up for this

Placement Experience:

From the very entry into your third year, you will be eligible to most of the placements. The training provided is very exquisite and some of the trainings start as early as 1st year. 2026 highest package was 55LPA. Many companies like from product companies like Microsoft, Capgemini to service based companies like TCS, INFOSYS etc.. visit our campus for regular placements. About 98% of people placed as far as I have heard.
