Remarks

Good part is the atmosphere in college is very good. People from upper middle or rich families come. No student politics is there unlike other govt universities. Bad part is it is a bit costly compared to other colleges.

Entrance Preview

I took Punjab CET and got 370 rank. I has the interest in Electrical because I always wanted to have govt job like in PSU. I chose this college because it was one of the best college at that time. Secondly i belonged to Patiala. So I was a day scholar. The admission process involved counseling. There all students from different states would also come for admission.

Course curriculum was very good. The college had a deemed University so the papers were set by University only. We studied common subjects in first year,second year onwards we had core elective. The college had its own high voltage lab. The lab facilities libraries are very good one of the best.

Saturnalia is one such event celebrated every year which have cultural programs. Some renowned artists are also called to perform in the campus. I remember jagjit Singh, jassi and palace Sen events.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Fee structure at my time was 17500 per semester. Even at that time it was very costly. Must be around 1 to 1.5 Lakhs now. The college has some NRI sponsored seats where you have to pay in dollars. It was around 7 to 8 Lakhs. Must be around 30-40 Lakhs now.

Fees and Financial Aid

The topper of each branch would have his tuition fee waived off every year. Further loans from Punjab national bank bank of Baroda and other govt banks is very easily available. I availed scholarship in my second year.

Campus Life

Campus life was chilled out. Gender ratio was around 60:40. Mostly people from North India studied here. No political affinity to any particular group. Since Punjab is have good culture so good culture and people from affluent families normally come here.
