The registration process for opting for a hostel is done by filling out a form.
Faculty: In this course, we study advanced chemistry and its applications in industries, research, material synthesis, medical sciences, etc. The exams are not difficult; one can easily pass them with consistent study of 2-3 hours daily. The teachers are good-natured, and their teaching style and skills are excellent. They use PPT presentations to make lectures easily understandable. All faculty members are highly qualified and hold Ph.D. degrees. Class Size: 59. Course Fees: INR 12,820 per year.

My thoughts about Loyola college.
Placements: In this college placement cell is well and well good students from 4th semester are eligible for placement. Asadel Teach, Cyfuture, Galytix Analytics Pvt. Ltd. , HFCL Limited, Infosys are top recruiters of this college. Placement percentage rate was 85% and the college tries there best to increase this rate to 100%. The highest package was goes upto 38 LPA and the average package was around 6-8 LPA.
Infrastructure: The hostel and mess facilities are really very good as most of the hostels and facilities are new. The food is of high quality and also varieties are provided through out the week. The hostel is in sharing for 1st year student and single for second year student. Rooms are big and spacious having attached bathroom also cleaning staff daily clean the room and corridors. Security guard and CCTV camera are also there in hostel. Registration process is very easy and it is done by filling the form.
Faculty: I was interested in doing M.Sc. in Chemistry. For this reason I was influenced by the decision. Although in those 2 years the curriculum was good and I had improved a lot in Chemistry. The semester exams were little tough but the timings and frequency were good maintained. All the faculty members of our Chemistry department were highly qualified. There were four permanent male professors. One Hod and three female permanent professors. All are highly qualified with having Ph.D. degree and Net qualified.

Educational heart of Chennai.
Placements: Placement is good but not satisfactory. 70% of students are placed, but students placed in MNC companies are very few. Mostly, students are placed in Chennai-based pharma companies. Shapoorji Pallonji hired 5 students, but in Cipla, Lupin, and Dr. Reddy's, 8 students were placed. Salary depends on many factors, but 30,000/month is mostly offered. Roles include test right, information executive, and biotech technician. Tip: Placement is difficult for low-grade students, so maintain your grades.
Infrastructure: The college is located in the heart of Chennai City, which is why there is pollution, noise from vehicles, and lots of traffic. Loyola College has the biggest library in the entire Chennai city. The annual fest "The Ovation" is celebrated in February; film artists visit the campus at that time. The facilities and technologies provided in classrooms are first class. We have smart classrooms on campus. Hostel facilities are good; all rooms have charging points and shared beds. Food is given 3 days a week non-veg, and the remaining days veg only. Canteen food is not good; they need to change the cook.
Faculty: Honestly, some faculty behavior is rude, but most teachers are very polite in nature. They are passionate, sincere, caring, and supportive. Every student has an individual mentor; we can share our problems and academic doubts with them. Our college grading system is very different; scoring and passing is very difficult. The course curriculum is also very big and assigning house are less, needing all attention while teaching the subject.
