Remarks

According to me it's an amazing university of distance learning they provide us with good quality education and course material which set a great foundation of subjects be it the subject of specialization we are doing or any other.

Course Curriculum Overview

As being a course of distance, The course materials are supplied to the students well in advance and the course structure consists of all the must subjects. It's also well researched and the exams are yearly.

Placement Experience

3.5

However as being a university of distance we have to look up to our ownselves after completing the graduation course however it's a reputed university so the provided degree has a lot of value of the university.

Fee Structure And Facilities

I am persuing ba in English and according to me the fee structure is really feasible the three years of degree courses is just for Rs. 6,845 which is affordable for every student whoever want to complete there graduation in English.

Fees and Financial Aid

Yes the university do provide its students with scholarships on the basis of merit and also scholarships by government are also available and the students may also be provided with loans if required to complete their graduation.

Campus Life

As being a university of distance I dont really have the exact knowledge about the extracurricular activities or sports. But it's for sure that here in this university there is discrimination related to any gender or religion. Anyone can be a part of this university.

Admission

I am persuing my BA in English in correspondence from this university Periyar University, Periyar Institute of Distance Education and for the purpose of admission we have to be qualified in our intermediate education from its relevant subject. We have to fill the admission application which can be downloaded from the official website of PRIDE. Candidates can also obtain the application form from the campus and various study centers. The cost of the application form is INR 300

My sweet college days!!

Likes

College environment was very neat and clean always.
The birds they kept at the front side campus were so pleasant and calm
Campus was large in size and comfortable

Dislikes

College management is very strict in handling students
College management allot less money as prize money for academic winners
Students should get pass even for 2 minutes late entry

Course Curriculum Overview:

The department of English not only offers good education but also so many values to lead our life. Faculties were so friendly in clearing students' doubts. There was personality development course to improve students' personality. Students had to choose any other subjects other than they are studying for sbi course. Due to this students learn about other subjects too.

Madras School of Economics - A Comprehensive Review for Bachelor's

Likes

The gender ratio is fairly close to 1:1 and it provides a proper environment for all to collaborate and interact.
Most of the faculty members are reachable.
Students usually get free by 4PM and have the remainder of the day to explore their own things.

Dislikes

More academics oriented - no room for placements on campus as such.
Unable to choose electives - have to do whatever course is available.
Infrastructurally very basic - lacks a lot of facilities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Has a lot of new age courses like MS Excel, Python and Data Science. It prepares you fairly well for roles like Data Analyst, Financial Modelling, etc. Areas for improvement include optimising the curriculum load as per the students. Two internals (one after a month after sem starts, second a few weeks before the end sem) and the end sem. I feel the end sem is relatively easier due to the preparation we endure for the internals.
