The college's admission process includes an entrance exam followed by counseling and seat reservation, where candidates choose two courses and priority is given to the first choice if seats are available. The process can be time-consuming, with students seated according to their exam ranks. Students from Dehradun and those with specific reservations have a separate allocation. The faculty is average, with many still pursuing Ph.D. degrees. Recent course additions have brought in new teachers, varying in effectiveness.
The tuition fee is approximately 1.5 lakhs per semester, considered high, especially when compared to institutions like IUT or BITS. Campus life is described as monotonous, and the fee is suggested to be reduced by half. The placement process, managed by the DSA department, is regular, with most students securing jobs unless they lack interest or have poor academics. The average salary package is between 3 to 4 lakhs per annum.
Internships are mainly with medium-sized companies, offering some stipends, and are beneficial for understanding work dynamics. Scholarships are available for top students, and project funding is provided by UPES. Students can also access loans from most banks.
