What Students Say

Likes

The teaching faculty's hands on system, where they actively interact and have important discussions.
The openness and the willingness to bridge the gap between students and teachers
A smart course structure including holistic education

Dislikes

Not enough modern facilities to counter the growing generation
Lack of culturals and professional shows
More vibrant student life. The students are too concentrated to one state

Course Curriculum Overview

My curriculum is very good and possibly one of the best in India. It's very thought based and not all bookish. I'm given the liberty to express my thoughts and opinions without being shot down. Strongly recommend English SFS

Class Size: 35Course Fees: INR 65000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The year wise fees comes to around 60000 per year. As it is split into two semesters, the fees is rounded off. Some departments have a higher fee structure due to more expenses, such as labs and such. Since I am in an English Degree, my fees is significantly lesser. Manna schemes and reservation scholarships are available

Campus Life

The college is very old and it's one of the best things about it. The vibrant environment that we have makes it a joy to be in and it's just such a cool environment. The events are beautiful too and being in the College really feels different.

Admission

I chose this college because of the ambience and the curriculum. The other colleges in my roster didn't seem as appealing as the college I am in right now. The admission process also seemed very interesting and quick

Faculty

The relationship between faculties and students are incredibly close knit. They help with a lot of problems (my department atleast) and they provide us with leeway when it comes to submissions. The anti ragging and anti disciplinary committees however have an extremely harmful way of running things and they don't follow the required procedure to conduct inquiries

Night Life

My College doesn't particularly have a night life due to the extreme forests that we have. The hostels which are called halls however, have a very vibrant environment which promotes music, debating among other activities

Placement opportunities could be improved by inviting more companies.
More practical sessions and industry exposure would benefit students.
The college can organize more technical and cultural events.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is well-structured and covers both theoretical and practical aspects. It provides a strong foundation for higher studies and career opportunities. Internal assessments and semester exams are conducted regularly, with a fair marking system. More industry exposure, internships, and skill-based training would further enhance students' learning experience.

My sweet college days!!

Likes

College environment was very neat and clean always.
The birds they kept at the front side campus were so pleasant and calm
Campus was large in size and comfortable

Dislikes

College management is very strict in handling students
College management allot less money as prize money for academic winners
Students should get pass even for 2 minutes late entry

Course Curriculum Overview:

The department of English not only offers good education but also so many values to lead our life. Faculties were so friendly in clearing students' doubts. There was personality development course to improve students' personality. Students had to choose any other subjects other than they are studying for sbi course. Due to this students learn about other subjects too.

Madras School of Economics - A Comprehensive Review for Bachelor's

Likes

The gender ratio is fairly close to 1:1 and it provides a proper environment for all to collaborate and interact.
Most of the faculty members are reachable.
Students usually get free by 4PM and have the remainder of the day to explore their own things.

Dislikes

More academics oriented - no room for placements on campus as such.
Unable to choose electives - have to do whatever course is available.
Infrastructurally very basic - lacks a lot of facilities.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Has a lot of new age courses like MS Excel, Python and Data Science. It prepares you fairly well for roles like Data Analyst, Financial Modelling, etc. Areas for improvement include optimising the curriculum load as per the students. Two internals (one after a month after sem starts, second a few weeks before the end sem) and the end sem. I feel the end sem is relatively easier due to the preparation we endure for the internals.

First there is no test admission it purely based on your cut off mark and first come first serve.
