What Students Say

Likes

I really like the teachings and the effort they put in
I also like how there is a college canteen
The library and the basketball court is great

Dislikes

I dont like the bathrooms since its too crowded
I also dont like the class hours as its too long
The college timing is also something i dislike

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

I chose this course because to be honest it is one of the easiest subjects but also one of the subjects you can easily score marks in....tests are held before exams which is a good sign and also helps the students to prepare

Class Size: 70Course Fees: INR 13000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

One semester costs about 13,000 here which i dont think is too much compared to others colleges here in shillong....we can also apply for the national scholarship which is a great way to help the students

Campus Life

I dont really enjoy college as i donr have any friends in college....so i usually just attend classes and as soon as the class ends....i use the bathroom and return home which i think for me is a really great thing because i dont like hanging out with people

Hostel Facilities

The hostel i stay isn't that bad compared to other hostels....a proper bathroom with a geyser because its usually cold in shillong....good food.....and even a washing machine to wash clothes which i tjink should be available in all hostels because ut rains a lot here

Hostel Fee: INR 7000 per year

Admission

Our college has a pretty high acceptance rate and so getting admission was not a really big deal.....forms for admission could be downloaded or applied for it online which i think is a really good way for students from far off places

Faculty

3.5

I think the staff are really qualified for the jobs because the teachings could be understood well by the students....the way they set up the classes and maintain discipline is also something i notice

ST ANTHONY’s COLLEGE SHILLONG

Likes

The college was full diverse with people coming from different states.
The faculty is quite cleaned and well organized.
College week was the best part of the college.

Dislikes

The professors were quite rude. If asked something you will be questioned as dumb.
The teaching style was not good. They would teach in their local language most of the time.
The time table was quite hectic as the classes started from 8:00 AM and ended in 4:30 PM and having only 30 mins break the whole day.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is quite vast. But it only consisted of three subjects for my batch before NEP. We only have Western music, Hindustani classical music and regional music. But courses with NEP has a lot. And not just focuses on music but extras too.

Likes

classes are always held on time with a punctual routine
teachers are strict and sincere and provide materials
food of the canteen is very delicious of it's kind

Dislikes

due to the non-availability of co-ed since it's an all girls college
canteen's food can add a variety of other delicacies
inclusivity of every gender being a all girls college

Course Curriculum Overview:

i've always had a passion for literature and it's musings so i guess english has always been close to home and my intellect. The curriculum makes me well known to the real world. There aren't any necessary improvements as per my perspective. The level of difficulty is moderate except it prepares every student to get out of one's comfort zone

The College that I’ve been dreaming of

Likes

My college offers an excellent learning environment with highly experienced faculty who are always approachable for guidance. The teaching methods are interactive, combining theoretical knowledge with practical applications
The infrastructure is commendable with well equipped classrooms labs and a modern library. Campus life is vibrant with a mix of cultural, technical and sports events that foster a sense of community
The placement services are affective with top companies participating in campus recruitment and providing ample job opportunities

Dislikes

One area where the college needs improvement is the hostel facilities which require better maintenance and amenities
The Internet connectivity can be inconsistent in certain areas of the campus which impact students who rely online resources
The mess food lacks variety and often does not meet quality standards

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate an 8 because curriculum is essential to guide teachers in what to teach, how much depth of knowledge is needed for the grade and a timeline to follow so the syllabus will be completed. Curriculum needs to focus on what you can do with information

Likes

I liked the campus it was huge with great views sorrounded by umiam lake its beautiful
Chappel or Church where every student attend whether you are hindu they used to attend
Some many programs are being help like skill india,computer classes for free

Dislikes

The classrooms they were kind of old it wasnt renovated
Yeah there is water issue over in shillong in rainy days the water gets dirty which no one would like to drink so we have to buy our own water ....college authorities also provide fresh water when it becomes a big issue
The instruments for field study in geography are too old some doesnt work

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose this course because i wanted to study geography and to know about it and i had to choose this institution because in Tripura there was no good college which provide BA geography honours so i had to move to Meghalaya...it is fun to study during 5-6th semester where we have to do field study with different instruments the are so amazing and in 6th semester they take us to trekking but unfortunate we were not taken because of exams ....the Nehu exams are so hard

The college needs to work out a bit and have an accommodation for outstation students. That way, more students will be interested to study in the college. They should try their best to have it in the college.

Remarks:

Students take admission so as to get good placements. However, this college doesn't really have that option and so it needs to improve in that aspect as it'll ultimately give name to the college and also its alumnis.

My review on my college

I applied for other colleges such as Shillong Commerce and St Anthony's College and it was confirmed that I will get admission in Shillong Commerce as long as I paid the fees as for St Anthony's College it was not confirmed.I chose Shillong College instead of the other two because I was sure that I was going to get the admission bin this college and it is also cheaper as compared to the others as it is a government college. I got in one of the college but the other it was not confirmed.The admission is mostly online along with the fees.The students are eligible for this college if they got a 45% or above .There are no exam required for students and the admission went quite smoothly....Read More
