What Students Say
Likes
- There are a lot of student clubs and associations that give an opportunity for an amazing extra curricular record
- There is always something taking place like fests, competitions, conferences, etc.
Dislikes
- They have no regard for students whatsoever. The people here are not at all considerate about anything. They'll do whatever they want to and if you raise concerns, you are basically setting yourself up for humiliation
- They don't respect any religious diversity.
Course Curriculum Overview
They have a really unstable syllabus. We don't know the exam dates, even if they give us a syllabus, it's subject to change. We learn very basic stuff in class but in tests they give you complex problems. It's all very confusing. I didn't have psychology in my plus two, so I used to study it myself, and I think it was easier to grab concepts then. Here, I just get all confused and all I can focus on is getting all the assignments done before deadline instead of actually learning something.
Internships Opportunities
There are a few internship opportunities iffered by the same companies that come for placements. The stipend ranges from 3000 to 15000. Most internship opportunities come for second year students. And are mostly accompanied with job offers after successful internship completion.
Placement Experience
Since I am doing an undergrad psychology course there is not much placements options. But for other courses there are companies such as Deloitte, Goldman Sachs that come for placements. People (very selected few) can apply from second year and walk in their 3rd year with an offer letter in hand.
Fees and Financial Aid
For my first year i paid ?100000. And it's the same for all 4 years of my degree. However it has increased by 10% for the next batch. There is no option to pay the fees semester wise so you have to pay the entire amount at once. The people from Karnataka from my batch had to pay only 80000. They do have merit scholarships for people in need of aid.
Campus Life
There are two major fests that take place around the year. One is Darpan that happens around August. There are a number of events that take place in that including literature, theatre, dance, music. Along with Darpan, sports events (Pedagogic league) also takes place. Next comes Blossoms in around February which is an. inter campus event and also encompasses a number of competitions. Other than these two departmental level events are always going on. You can always find stalls, or performances, or drives happening.
Admission
So I chose this college mostly because the reviews online were really good. The academics, extra curricular everything was overrated. So for my program I just had to apply and clear an interview round to get in. For some courses they also have an entrance test which you have ro clear to get to the interview.
Faculty
So we have a semester program. We have four assessments in total which consist of 3 CIAs (Continuous Internal Assessment) and the final end semester exam. The second CIA is mid sem exam and the other two are mostly a project or some presentation or a test. The faculty is okayish for psychology. I was expecting the psych faculty to be a little considerate, but to be honest i think they are the least considerate department. The rules are too strict. The teachers can't share PPTs to students to study from, we can't use laptops for note taking it has to be a notebook. They have a capping system on grades. So no one can score more than a particular grade even if they deserve it. So most of the time the entire class will just get an average grade. And it really affects your final GPA score.
