Very few big companies were at campus at that time. As I had decided to start business at that time I have selected local company. After 18 months of service I have resigned and started of my own business.

Annual elections and gathering was the events at that time. Some sport events were also organised. I took part in Chess and become University champion for fifth time and represented Captain of University team. Our team had secured third place in India in all university teams.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee was Rs 1500 per term. Exam fee was Rs 250 every year. However i have been granted waiver and second year because of grant by university.Fee structure was not so expensive and overall students can manage their expenses within Rs 1000 per month. Fee was not much and facilities were good.

Fees and Financial Aid

College was giving free ship for those got rank in university exam. No special waiver was there.As the fee was not much loan from bank was not necessary in those days.Many students are from Good well done families and total expenses per year were not a burden.

Campus Life

3.5

Our campus was quite fine and we were enjoying the study as our batch of selected 30 students only. We have participated in many Games and debate arranged by college. Those were days when students were concentrating on studies first especially for this MBA course.

Alumni/Alumna

Our senior were really good and offered lot of help in arranging seminars and suggestions about books etc.We have arranged joint picnics and group discussions about various subjects of common interest. Our professor has offered additional books to me for study matters.

Exam Structure

Annual examination was conducted but it was for 60 markes out of 100. For remaining marks counted out of 10 for terminal exa, tutorials, seminar performance and group discussions.I was enjoying my studies hence no hectic day or like happens with me.

Faculty

4.5

Our staff members was very cooperative and studious in respective subject. There was no time limit for some classes of Marketing and Mr Bhanushali and Mr Pange was our best choice.Mr Pange was Senior Executive in one Ltd company having all sort of practical experience in Marketing which was very helpful to all students.

College Review

Placement Experience:

Students are eligible for campus placements from starting of the second year. The placements commence then and continue till everyone is placed. Being a young college, the placements are improving on a yearly basis with new companies being onboarded. The average package stands around 12-13LPA.

Reviewed on May 3, 2020

Remarks:

I had honestly applied in only a selected number of colleges, as I was doing really well in my coaching and was always among the top 2. Since, I was expecting a lot from myself, it created performance pressure and I went blank during the actual CAT examination. So SDA bocconi was among the top 2 options that I had. It is less than a decade old and has still managed to provide good placements. The most fascinating part is the entire semester in Bocconi,Milan which is the 21st best college in the world and 7th in Europe. I also spoke to many aluminis and hardly got to hear anything that will stop me from taking admission in SDA bocconi. Plus, the advantage of the college being in a city like Mumbai has it's own advantages.

Cutoff for Bcom after 12th is something I am not sure about as I was already prt of the same college. But Cutoff for 11th based on 10 th marks is 85+....Read More
