It is a boys' college so interaction with girls is not present which makes you more free.

Placements: As I have earlier said about the placement cell, the placement cell of the college is very nice and powerful enough to place all students in the campus selection. Famous and mass recruiting companies are Infosys, TCS, Cognizant, etc. Placements are very nice.

Infrastructure:

Faculty: Our faculty members are very cooperative and do support a lot. They always make sure that no child should fail. The quality of the teaching staff is very nice. This particular course contains a total of 8-semester patterns in which each semester consists of two main exams that are taken in a ratio of 30:70 in which the candidate has to score 40 out of 100 marks to clear the subject.

Campus life here is the best.

Placements: I completed my studies from Loyola college, Chennai, in the department of Advance Zoology and Biotechnology. My class consists of almost 40 people from almost all the parts of India. We have to do a mandatory internship. The placements are the best in our college with many top companies like IBM and Accenture hiring.

Infrastructure: My college has all the facilities including Wi-Fi and smart classrooms. The faculty members have a friendly behaviour. The college has the best library which includes books of all kind. The hostel has many blocks everyone can be accommodated in it. They are always safe and secured. We have 3 main gates in the college. For women students, they have a special hostel building and a common room.

Faculty: The teachers were very helpful with studies, research and assignments. We have two internal exams in each semester and one main exam. We don't have any model exams. The semesters exams are a little tough, we have to cope up with them. If you study regularly and make notes in the class, then it will be much easier for you to get a good score in the examinations.

Other: We have the best culturals called ‘ovations’ organized which has many events. We make many connections and get recognition by attending the events. We have many college festivals which are fun filled. Of course the college culturals are one of the best things in the college life here.

B.com. Accounting and Finance - Batch of 2026

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

A good college to choose and provides various opportunities.

Placements: The average package our super seniors received is 5,00,000 per annum, and the highest is 12,00,000 per annum. About 30-40% of people were placed in our super seniors' batch, while most others preferred pursuing higher studies. Companies like TCS, Deloitte, Goldman Sachs, and E&Y come for recruitment here.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, smart classrooms, a library, playgrounds, conference halls, a food court, and many other facilities are available on the college campus, and especially our classrooms are air-conditioned. Hostel facilities are good, and there are about three food courts inside the college itself; the hostel food is also good.

Faculty: The faculty consists of highly professional and well-educated individuals. Their teaching is especially nice, and most students can understand the content. The staff from external coaching centers for CMA US coaching is particularly good at teaching. This course is relevant for me, and it will definitely help me reach my dream. Semesters are not that difficult, except for the CMA papers, as the CMA paper questions are mostly MCQs, so we need to be clear on the concepts. It's important to start studying early; otherwise, it can be a difficult subject to deal with.

Other: I mainly chose this course and college because it is known for its placements, it is listed among the top 10 colleges in India in the NIRF ranking, and it is one of the reputed institutes celebrating its 100th year next year.
