The best college in Salem district.

Placements: The eligibility criteria for the placement is a 90% pass percentage. TCS, TIMES OF INDIA, etc. are some of the recruiters and recruited 15 students in the past year. The lowest package is 2.4 L per annum. The highest package is 12 L per annum. 50% of students who have scored above 75% marks were placed in the past year. I have planned to pursue a B.Ed. degree to become a teacher.

Infrastructure: We have NCC, NSS, RRC, LITERARY, BLOOD DONATION clubs, etc. If you need the details about the college, you can follow the Instagram page @Salem7_arts.Mostly, our department doesn't conduct any festivals, events, or cultural activities. So don't expect these and all. If you expect these within the college, you may choose the political science department. Inside our college we have a library, discipline and a nice canteen. Near our college, we have a district library. In the library, we have a lot of books to read.

Faculty: Each semester has a working day of 90. The exams are difficult till now and you can pass easily in them. I have chosen this course to become an artist in literature and for a degree. Most of the professors completed Ph.D.s and were well trained. Every professor has experience of about 5–30 years. So, we need not worry about teaching. Always, the professors will encourage you at all times and places .

I am satisfied with friendly faculty members and college timings.

Placements: Companies like HCL and Microsoft once visited our college for a seminar and assured students that they will conduct placements but they didn't conduct them.

Infrastructure: Our department contains a computer laboratory with around 20 computers and well educated lab technicians. Hostel is not provided in our college.

Faculty: Teachers in our college were knowledgeable and well-experienced. They had high-level practical knowledge. The course curriculum was relevant and made students industry-ready. Semester exams were easy than the other colleges. Since it is an autonomous college, they prepare its own syllabus. Faculty members of our department were very friendly and interactive with all students.

Other: I chose BCA because of my interest. The best thing about our course is it is a growing platform with a huge demand. More practical classes should be provided. Events like season festivals are celebrated within the campus.
