Likes

Teachers are supportive and help with doubts.
The classrooms, labs, and library are good
Some events and activities are conducted to enjoy and learn.

Dislikes

Sometimes management is slow to respond to student concerns.
Too much theory, not enough practical learning in BCA.
No proper support for practical learning

Placement Experience:

Our college typically initiates campus placements from the 5th semester. Companies like Infosys and Wipro, TCS, Capgemini, etc. do come to campus and the average packages are around ?3-4 LPA and the highest can be around ?7-8 LPA depending on the student, their skills, and matching requirements. Around 60-70% of students get placed while adhering to the eligibility criteria and have taken the placement training sufficiently. Personally, I am currently focus on being better at my technical skills and wish to pursue an opportunity as a software developer following my graduation.

What ISDI is like

Likes

The college has excellent infrastructure and management.
Teachers are a hit or miss. There’s mostly rookie teachers for the first years but as you select your specialization, you’ll only be dealing with a specific set of teachers. Some of them are extremely experienced and some are okay-okay.
The college has excellent industry connections. There’s no better place to network as a student in Mumbai. They have people visiting from all over the world and master classes and talks occurring every now and then.

Dislikes

They’ve increased their intake of students massively. The campus is becoming way too crowded for so many people. They’ve expanded campus into some floors in the hostel which is right across the street.
Everything in the college is slowly getting more and more expensive. They charge large unnecessary fines for things like not bringing your hall ticket or a new ID card or for exam rechecking.
Canteen is wayy too expensive for students like us

Placement Experience:

Campus placements are very good and they have people coming from a diverse range of companies. I am a second year student so I don't know about the exact packages. I plan to identify my strengths by 4th year and get a job in that sector.

A honest review which will help you understand this college better .

As it was one of the colleges which had low strength of population and that means they pay attention to every student who is willing to work hence I chose this college u need to apply through cap rounds of Maharashtra set and there are multiple videos on how to apply and fill the form it's easy to fill except the website is little less workable it takes time and it's not that good website , fill the form correctly as the options u select are very important because if u belong to Maharashtra they give u more preference and there are very less seats for people out of state....Read More
