What Students Say

Likes

Our library..may be because I'm a bookworm and i spent my free hours there
Cafeteria..our university has the best and cheap food stalls inside the campus.
The garden..its breathtaking to watch the nature

Dislikes

Washroom because in sikkim water scarcity is one the major problem
Heatwaves despite being in hilly area the heat is unbearable
Seminar hall this is terrible it has no proper equipment

Course Curriculum Overview

In our university we have per semester 3 exams For eg. In 1 semester which means in 6 months we have 3 exams . Term 1 contains of 25 marks which will be written , term 2 contains 25 marks which can be written or your HOD might ask for assignments and the last paper is 50 . The passing criteria is 33

Class Size: 25Course Fees: INR 2550 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

Our university has the fix rates 2550 for non local students ( out side of sikkim or people living in sikkim but has no identification paper which they call COI ) . AND if you have the COI then just 30 rupess and if you are foreigner then you need to pay 3700 .

Campus Life

4.5

Yes the college sessions are hectic but the month of june will give you freshes because its a fest month ..here you'll get to participate in whchever activities you like too . Lots of other events also takes place apart from fest . We have our theater club many members loves to be part of ths and we also have NSS and NCC camps as well ....each department has smart tv in each class and teaching as well as learning becomes very easy .

Admission

Seeking admission in sikkim University and colleges under this will take you months of waiting because the first preference the government gives to sikkimese students who have COI ( certificate of identification ) first merit has only coi students and 2nd merit has 2% of outsiders and in rest counciling sessions.

Faculty

4.5

Our psychology professors are really cool they are actually one of the youngest teachers . Their teaching methods are genz ..its super easy and they even provide hand written notes. But do not underestimate their cool nature if your attendance is low and no leave is provided then you are in danger they will not listen to your excuses and making fool out of them would be scary

My Undergrad Experience at Sikkim University.

The cultural events, the city, the people and the natural environment all around. Life in hills feels like a breath of fresh air, you'll love it for a change.
My department of psychology was like a cozy small family with supportive and friendly professors. The curriculum is just fine. The evaluation pattern makes life really easy since you get 50 marks from your internals and only 50 from your final paper
The people that you meet here will teach you a lot about different ethnicities, culture and tradition. The place in itself is completely different from the rest of the country. Lifestyle in gangtok is pretty modern, classy and open minded

Dislikes

The city gets stuck in traffic quite often and it can really get on your nerves. I have had days where it used to take me 2hrs to cover a distance of 5km from my hostel to department via cab
The campus is still under construction and majority of the departments are stretched over the entire city of gangtok with rented buildings. This setting never felt feasible but isnt the worst part either.
One problem that many of my friends from other states felt here was the language barrier. People here communicate in either nepali or english, be it the marketplace or university.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is pretty outdated, they need to update it. The professors try to accomodate and teach stuff out of the syllabi as per the emerging trends. The difficulty level is average and the exams are easy to score on.

My collage life

Likes

Makes us ready for the upcomming challenges in life
Variety of life lessons to make us more strong for the future
We make a lot of friends some of which are till the very end

Dislikes

They should teach us more about our moral values and our civil rights
They should also give us basic financal education which would teach us more abut finances in our day to day life
May be more emphasising on practical life rather than the theoretical part

Course Curriculum Overview:

As per the course i had no idea which one was good for me. Nor did i have a seniour who could guide us. We should have atleast a month in collage to decide our course. If it is possible we should be given a month at the start of collage to discuss with the faculty based on our strength to choose the course we want.

A college student life.

Likes

We have a projector in all classes and camera
It provide us with library and studio too
It has clean washroom and a good classroom

Dislikes

We don't own a campus but only buildings
We have very less programs even if we have programs because of our building being a different location we don't have that social interaction between each others

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would read the course curriculum terms of relevance into the world as I got a sit for competitive exams. Our exam timing and a sessional goes very smoothly in we have total of 5 units where it is very easy to do it and A final terms goes with hundred marks which also is very good

When in doubt opt for SRM University

Likes

The most liked part of college is that it's not a mentally tortured environment, the teachers are very helpful and supportive, the classes are run calmly and patiently amd SRM provides the best enviornment mentally and physically
And the next thing and very important thing is that SRM is a ragging free campus
Also the campus is small yet well maintained and very hygienic

Dislikes

One thing I dislike about SRM is it doesn't have much programs
Also there is no auditorium as such to have good programs
And the facilities for canteen are also less

Placement Experience:

Our placement happens usually at the end of 5th semester. Where we. get good packages and before that we also.have professional soft skills training tonhow to attend for an interview which makes us more confident before opting for one

Life as a Sikkim University student in the main campus, Yangang

I chose this college as this is close to my hometown as compared to the other colleges I applied. Apart from this university, I applied to Central University of Punjab, Central University of Gujarat, Central University of Kerala, Pondicherry University and JNU. I got chance in Punjab, Kerala and Sikkim so I chose Sikkim University. Yes, I didn't get chance in the other universities as the cut off was very high....Read More

I chose this college because it was feasible and close to my state (Assam). It was the only central university close to my state which provided psychology honors. The admission was purely merit based as it was during covid. But now they take in students on the basis of CUET scores. The cut off through CUET is comparitively pretty less...Read More
