PGCD from peral academy at a fingertip.
Placements: The placement percentage of the students on campus for this particular course is 90% and the students get placed in a not so good company but the average salary is less than the industry standard as it is 7,20,000 rupees for every year only and the companies are McKinsey & Company.
Infrastructure: When I talk about the facilities and the infrastructure it is almost at par with other big colleges in the country, this college has not had that many fancy things and neither anything less from them but yes the one thing that our college takes care of is food, The food served is best in quality.
Faculty: The curriculum covers a wide range of topics from design, arts, and media, and also the exams conducted are mostly practically based the lessons learned are directly applied in those exams and we are also given group projects regularly to keep us with the industry standard.

Our college's faculty members are very supportive of students.
Placements: The placement committee at our college is a dedicated team, and they provide placements to all the students, depending on different skill sets. Many top fashion design firms visit here like Myntra, Fab India, H&M, Zara and many others. They have more than a 95% of track record in placements, and I am eager to get the opportunities they offer in my final year.
Infrastructure: Labs and classrooms are spacious and give comfortable spaces for students to do their work. The Wi-Fi is on every floor and has decent connectivity overall, with set limitations for certain websites. It is more than enough for college work. The canteen is on the ground floor and has a huge selection of different varieties of food.
Faculty: Faculty members are very supportive and nurturing to the batch. They have great industry experience too, and they help students with their project work actively with mentoring sessions as well. They also organise masterclasses that help students in different industry-related topics like team frameworks, creativity enhancement, etc.

The honest & unbiased review on Pearl Academy.
Placements: The college is in Mumbai it is the biggest advantage for many fashion brands and big fashion events and most importantly, Bollywood is located in Mumbai. College has a lot of contacts with designers and fashion brands, but firstly, we need to work under well-known fashion designers Masaba Gupta, Rutu Bosle, Anita Dongre, and Agarwal for at least 2 months. But I feel regret after doing this degree, spending 20 lacs on it, and now getting a job with a 2-3 lacs package. If you are placed in a good package, within the month you get laid off because they don't have money to pay you. NIFT is much better in terms of placement.
Infrastructure: Our institute has tree recreational rooms for indoor activities between our hectic daily schedule. In addition to medical services, there is a canteen and a stationary facility. We are part of various fashion social media groups. Labs, stitching, and all other facilities are available. Yes, I opted for a for a hostel because I belong to another state, rooms are given on a first-come, first-served basis, facilities and amenities are good, and all basic facilities are available. No, we do not have any sports. Our schedule is very hectic, and we do not have much time to play sports.
Faculty: Pearl is a good institute; teachers are good; it is required to work very hard, which is not a bad thing; the other thing is that it has a lot of nepotism; in one semester, work loads are unbeatable. It is extremely hard to develop all skills. Stitching, pattern making, and fashion illusions, if possible, try to learn them before joining. Keep consistent in class and have good grades in the teacher's books. Projects and assignments are very important because they have high marks.
Other: I want to go for NIFT but because of my lower marks, I will not get admission there so I will join Pearl Academy. The things I wish would improve it are not in my hands but mostly covered in my review.

Our college gives great industry exposure to the students.
Placements: In placements, we have companies like NDTV, Dharma, Shopper Stop, Scoopwhoop, etc. Many top placements are happening in these high-profile companies, and top students get to work for them. Internships are offered in these top media firms for third-year students as well.
Infrastructure: Our college's Wi-Fi system is comprehensive and has availability on every floor. There are two photography labs for students to use, along with many media labs and computer labs with Macintosh systems. The e-library and physical library have all the books and resources which students need.
Faculty: There are live industry projects. Our batch got a chance to work with a well-known brand, and it gave us industry experience and exposure working alongside these great personalities. Teachers are qualified, and for a few semesters, we also got to interact with faculty members of Pearl Academy, Delhi.

Pearl Academy has a comprehensive learning program for fashion media.
Placements: Pearl Academy has a placement committee that takes care of students in different schools and gets them placed accordingly in the companies that come to the campus. This depends on students, as it's based on their merit, chosen electives etc.
Infrastructure: The hostel is provided by Vasant Oasis in partnership, and we get great rooms. The food quality varies from time to time, but it is good. Medical facilities are available on the campus. Wi-Fi is available on every floor, and students can use it.
Faculty: The teachers for my course are great. There are always active discussions on our projects in the form of interactive sessions. We ended up having very friendly interactions with these highly respected people at the college.
Other: I chose this course as this is comprehensive learning towards fashion media with opportunities to expand in all of its different forms. The fests are conducted every year, like Pearl Utsav. The campus crowd is exciting, with many different people from different courses having great creative ideas.
