No, I didn't opt for any scholarships.

The college seniors are very friendly and help clear our doubts and queries. The university also holds events for interaction with alumni and seniors for placement and study perspective. I interacted with some of my seniors to understand more about the industry trends and learning what technologies and holding which certifications would be beneficial for me in the future.

I selected this university because it has a good placement record and due to recommendations from alumnis. Also, it is just 25kms from my home. The admission process is fairly simple. I visited the university website and filled an application form. In a day or two, I got a call and an email with a link to upload some documents and to pay the application fees. That was all for the admission process. After successful verification of my documents, I received a communication regarding the orientation schedule in the university premises, and the rest of the formalities were completed there.
