Fee Structure And Facilities

Feasible and the total was around 3 lakhs but don't remember the details exactly right now as it's been 2yrs now but they provided various fee structures so that the students family wasn't burdened by the money they had to pay and have been considerate and lenient when fees was a bit delayed.

ISME college BBA Review

Likes

The environment in the college is really good, there is no ragging and discipline is taken seriously
The facilities provided by the college like auditorium, library, amphitheatre, labs, classroom with smartboards and proper internet connection
The faculty here are really understanding and provide real life examples which makes learning easier and way more fun

Dislikes

Attendance is mandatory in the college which includes having atleast 75% of attendance.
There is a dresscode in college and we have to dress in formal attire only
College is far from house which makes it difficult to reach on time if traffic is there

Placement Experience:

There are 240+ companies that come for placements which include Deloitte, KPMG, Neolntelli, Grant Thornton, etc.. There are few students who even opt for going to further studies instead of getting placed... The highest package offered is 9LPA whereas the average package is around 6LPA.

ISME Review

Likes

The faculty is very friendly and always encourage us to speak up in class and be more confident.
There are a lot of events that take place, most of which are conducted by students themselves.
The hostel is located in the campus itself so it makes going and coming quicker and safer too.

Dislikes

The attendance is very strict about attendance
The classes can feel tiring especially if you aren't habituated to sitting for more than one hour in one place

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for campus placements in the 3rd year that is during the 5th semester. Many companies such as Deloitte, Infosys, Grant Thornton, EY as well as Goorej are some of the most prominent industries. There is also a one week immersion with IIM Bangalore as well as a 10 day program in Singapore.

We have faculties who take interest in teaching students and they provide relatable examples
The dress code is not as strict as in other colleges.
Awesome infrastructure and presence of greenery everywhere in the campus

Hectic schedules and classes from morning till evening
Not enough interval between the classes.
No playground, stationary shops and not enough printing availability within the campus

The average placement salary is 900000 rupees for BBA and BCom. They have placement cell for training the students to get placed in very good companies. Nearly 154 companies come to ISME for placement. Some students prefer to do their post graduate course abroad

MY JOURNEY AT ST. ALOYSIUS COLLEGE

Likes

Academic Excellence: The College Offers Multiple Range Of Course For The Streams And Programmes the college staff is also very knowledgeable and some members are also so helpful that coordinate with students and help them meet the modern technology
Values and Character Building: St. Aloysius College places significant emphasis on character development, ethics, and social responsibility. The focus on values, social service, and community involvement enhances the overall student experience.
Extracurricular Activities :- The college also organised a variety range of cultural activities and various clubs were formed which organised a variety of events and fest that is also helpful as a part of experience in this stream .

Dislikes

Placement Opportunities:- while the college does not offer a placement support expanding their network with various industries and provide more carrier opportunity should be helpful but the placement is not as we want lack of career counseling.
Modernization :- Continuous improvement in the technology is needed for better learning and also for proper knowledge of the students the labs need to be updated with new technology
Infrastructure and Area :- The Infrastructure needs to be expanded in both the field that is sports and the learning providing suitable area for sports activities and equipment for students is also needed to focus on their activities as well.

Placement Experience:

Talking about The Campus Placement Of St. Aloysius College, the students are eligible to sit in the campus placement after the end of their 5th Semester. The Eligibility requirements that the students need to fulfill for the placement are:- 1. Students need to pass every Semester With no Exam, or we can say ATKT. 2. Students With 7.5 CGPA in their Past Semester Are Only Eligible For Sitting In The Campus Placement. The Highest Package Of My Stream last Year was from The Finance Stram that is Of 3,00,000 Per Annum and the Average Package Is 1,50,000 Per Annum . Every Year, 45% of the students get the placement.

Gardencity University from the perspective of a student

I chose Garden City University over Presidency University because its course structure felt more practical and career-focused. While both universities are good, Garden City University focuses more on hands-on learning, workshops, and real-world skills. This was important to me because I want to be well-prepared for jobs after my studies. The campus environment at Garden City also felt welcoming, and the teachers are supportive and approachable. I did get admission to Presidency University as well. While it has strong academics, I found that Garden City University’s mix of theory and practical learning was more balanced and suited to my goals. Garden City seemed to focus on industry exposure and skill development, which is what I needed. The admission process at Garden City University was simple and quick. I had to submit my previous academic records, meet the eligibility requirements, and attend a counseling session. The staff was very helpful and guided me well. The process at Presidency University was similar, but Garden City’s process felt smoother and more student-friendly. In the end, I chose Garden City University because it offers a better balance of academics and practical learning, along with a positive campus environment that supports students in every way....Read More
