Christ through the lens of a Christite

There were three stages. First, you need to submit your portfolio and SOP. Second, there's a written exam with two sections - objective and subjective. And, at last, there is an interview round. The evaluation of the candidate is based on all three of these. The application form, dates, and all the other details can be found on the college website.

The faculty here are very well-qualified and are experts in their subjects. They are also open to any feedback from the students. They are flexible with their teaching methods. Most of them put in their best effort to teach the students. Except for a few written examinations, most of them are assignment based. The exams are easy enough to pass but difficult enough to score high. Moreover, a lot of projects are group-based, so you are evaluated accordingly. Just being textbook good is not enough when you're in Christ. As for my program, the curriculum is well-made and there's a perfect balance between theory and practical.

We have internships after the end of each semester. One needs to find Internships on their own. However, if someone is not able to find it on their own, the university helps the students to get one. So, while they want us to help ourselves, they don't abandon us.

The companies visit the office in the final year. For Media and Communication Studies program, the companies come mostly for the students of Advertising and Corporate Communication (Specialization 2) rather than Multimedia Journalism (Specialization 1). However, all the students are free to sit for all the companies. Some good brands come up for placements and take students every year. However, the good part is that even if you don't get an opportunity from the campus placement, you will always get an edge because of the university name when you apply to any of the companies. That's especially when you're applying in Karnataka or the Southern region.

The fee structure is fine considering the average fee for Media Studies in any other institution in India. The faculty and facilities are appropriate but I feel more resources could be provided. Though they are working on that. I have not applied for any scholarships so I'm not very knowledgeable about that but yes, there are a lot of scholarships available and you can check that on the college website too. Moreover, the topper of the year receives a scholarship too. Regarding on-campus jobs, there are certain associations within the institution that do provide opportunities like that.

Campus life in Christ is something that all Christians cherish. Something keeps happening all the time - fests, workshops, seminars, events, etc. The infrastructure is also very good, though I would have preferred it if there were more resources for media students. There are enough though. As for the library, it is a big one that with really good collections. You can also access the online resources in the library while sitting at your home with the student's login credentials. There are a lot of clubs and associations to join and if you can manage the time, you should definitely join one of these.

There was no group discussion but I had both an interview and a written test. For writing, the questions will be based on general knowledge, current affairs, and English. As for the interview, they will ask a little about you, the work you show in your portfolio, etc. And, believe me, when I say this, they will test your personality and potentially more than your knowledge and skills. They want students who can bring something to the table. It's fine you're not good at something but you need to show the willingness to learn all that comes your way. And, most of all, be honest!
