Review of Southern Academy of Maritime Studies.

Placements: SAMS College was good for students who had sponsorship on a DNS course. It is better to choose another marine college.

Review of Southern Academy of Maritime Studies.

Placements: There are no placements from this college. During admissions, they lie about companies that would select you after your course. The staff will lie to you until you are convinced to take admission here. In the end, they would ask you to pay 5 Lacs for placements in some poor companies.

It is a very good college to learn many things for the future.

Placements: Around 40% of the students got placed in our batch. The highest salary offered in our course was Rs. 20,000 per month. None of the top companies visits our college. I paid around 3 lacs for a GP rating course, and no extra fees were charged. Around 50% of the students got an internship with Ships and Nautilus Shipping.

An honest review on Southern Academy of Maritime Studies.

Placements: There are no placements in our college. DNS is a sponsored course, but you can join this college without being sponsored, as this college doesn't follow the rules. So, they will take an extra amount and will give you a seat for doing DNS in this college. After the completion of your course, if you clear all the subjects, then they will ask you for 4-5 lakhs as a fee for placements as a deck cadet in ships. They will provide placements by taking money.

The worse place to stay no security, irresponsible staffs, management is on paper only.

Placements: There is nothing like placement in this college. There is an agent named Wainktess, and he may give you ship instead of money. He asked me nine lakhs for that, so better to be on your own. On admission time they may show you sponsor letter, but all of them are fake there is no any sponsorship and placement is also nill, so better to carry own sponsor.

Good for GP, other than that, don't take admission here.

Placements: There is no placement on the college campus. They charge five Lacs for placements, and they have to wait for the student to get on a ship. There is no proper placement cell. No proper preparation for the interview. The faculty do not help in preparing. They only want money, nothing else.

Fully satisfied with the faculty. Other than the faculty, everything is below average.

Placements: First of all, if you need placement from college, you should not head to this college, because this institute is very poor in the placements. And, if you can pay money other than college fee, then you will get placements in a good company. Also, as this is a marine college, nowadays placements are done only in few colleges. And the main thing, if you have a sponsor from a company and have the choice of selecting the college, then you can select this because of the perfect faculty present here.

Food and studies is not good in this college.

Placements: There are no placements in the college. Even when they give placements, they charge a minimum of 5 lakhs of rupees. There is also no placement cell inside the college. They tell a lie about the placements. Also, the faculty here don't have a manner to talk. There is no proper infrastructure here, and the college itself is very small.

Marine academy gave me an opportunity to learn the qualities to become a professional in seafaring. I had great fun during my training time as well as got brilliant faculty at the same time to get thorough knowledge of the field. All my instructors were very keen in providing the knowledge and also the infrastructure was well built and maintained.

Faculty members are good. Hostel and mess food is the worst, but studies are very good.

Placements: Our college conducts placement interviews, but none of the students got selected for any of the companies. It doesn't matter how good you are at expressing yourself in front of them.
