Till now, everything about this college is excellent.

Placements: Around 90% of students in our class are placed; we don't have sections like other departments. I really don't have any idea about the internships. The highest package so far would be around 10-20 lakhs LPA (or higher) for top placements. The lowest was around 3-4 lakhs.

Infrastructure: The classrooms for Political Science Honors students are well-equipped with LCD projectors, ensuring modern teaching techniques, including PowerPoint presentations. The college has a spacious library that boasts over 25,000 books, including journals and magazines covering a wide range of subjects, including political science. The quality of food in the college is excellent, and anyone can buy it since it's very cheap. With just 10-30 rupees, they can easily fill their stomach.

Faculty: Actually, for me, their way of teaching is good, but I can't clearly understand what they are explaining. Maybe it's because the explanation in college and higher secondary is completely different. Now, it all depends on our hard work. We need to be consistent with our studies.

Other: I chose this course because I was interested. One wish is that I want our professor to guide us thoroughly since we are still in our 1st semester. Everything is new to us: the course, exam pattern, assignments, and activities. That's all.

Review of St. Edmund's College.

Placements: It's not a university so the placement is not that great but the other facilities are very good for placement. You need to take admission in university but it's just a college. Our college is affiliated with Nehu University so you can take admission at Nehu University if you want. Also, the Nehu University is good.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good if you are taking a major in any subject that has practical things or practical activities, then you have the laboratories, or sometimes if you are into geography, then you will be taken to the places for excursions, so you will have all those facilities. If you are planning to stay in college hostel, then it's good, but everything is very strict there, like you can't go out after 7; you have to go to bed at strictly at 10, etc . You obviously can take that option but the things would be very strict and about the canteen, we have two candidates their and one cafeteria All the foods are very delicious and healthy, like one is healthy and one is based on fast food and in capital, you will have all the good, delicious drinks like coffee and hot chocolate and stuff like that so infrastructure of this college was very good.

Faculty: All the faculties are extremely professional and extremely talented; they would help you for anything. You go and ask for their help if you need anything in academics as well as in your personal life. You will never feel the generation gap between them; they always give you the bad guys and over the encourage you to take up many other extracurricular activities. Let's say if you are good at dancing or singing, they will always encourage you to take part by electric part in different activities so that you can showcase your talent, which would help you in your letter life, which is so difficult and extremely supportive.

Other: St. Edmund's is one of the best colleges in our country, as are the faculties and other curricular activities. The college festival is top-notch; you will get a lot of opportunities where you can showcase your talent or if you are good at writing, you can always submit your articles so you will be given a lot of opportunities. it's Samay Government College so the fees are competitively very low and with the low face, you can have one of the best experiences of college life. And the like about the admission, you have to go undergo an entrance exam if you are scoring below 90. If your score for your class 12th mark is very extraordinary, like if you have scored 95 above, then you can take direct admission. If you are somewhere below that, then you have to sit for the entrance.

A well balanced and outstanding college in all aspects.

Placements: Around 80% of students in my course were placed. The highest achievements for many students come from qualifying in exams like UPSC, NET, SSC, and other competitive exams. A considerable number of students also secured internships with larger companies, though these are mostly in other states.

Infrastructure: Each classroom is equipped with projectors and whiteboards, and Wi-Fi is available primarily in the science departments, where it’s most needed. The labs are clean and efficient. The on-campus hostel provides good quality food, with three meals per day and morning snacks. The overall food quality is excellent and affordable. The campus also promotes sports, with events like basketball and cricket held frequently.

Faculty: The faculty members are knowledgeable and well-equipped to teach their respective subjects. The course curriculum effectively prepares students for further studies or competitive exams. The semester exams are of average difficulty, depending on how much effort you put into your studies.

Other: I chose this course because of my passion for it, and I feel that my skills have been well-developed throughout my studies. While there's not much I would change, I would appreciate more feedback surveys for continuous improvement. The campus hosts various events such as College Week, Teachers' Day, Independence Day, and Freshers' Meet. Scholarships vary by state, typically ranging from INR 15,000 to 20,000.

Absolutely satisfied with the college and it's facilities offered.

Placements: Around 20 percent of students were placed in my course. The highest package offered was 12 LPA, the lowest package offered was 2 LPA, and the average package offered was 5 LPA. The top recruiting companies are Bajaj and Vipro. Around 47 percent of students got internships from my course in companies in Vipro and Bajaj.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure facilities is well and good, there is a projector in classrooms, also, there are practical labs and library with more than 4000 journals 9 newspapers and magazines and in our college, there is a gym. The quality of food available in hostel is average but canteen offered delicious foods and there is also a medical room and many sports available like basketball, football, etc.

Faculty: The teachers of our college are highly qualified and knowledgeable and the teaching quality is excellent. And the course that I choose is most relevant and will make the students industry-ready. Semester exams are a little difficult but they can be cracked easily with study and the pass percentage is 76 percent.

Other: I chose the course because the course provides us practical knowledge and also helps us to learn from our surroundings. The things that I wish would be better in the course is that there should be more geographical tools for easy understanding. There are lots of events organised in our college like Christmas, freshmen, and many more. The campus crowd is higher because ours college is best in the state, The campus surroundings are clean and everything is well maintained, scholarships are also given to meritorious students and lastly, the management also focus on extracurricular activities like public speaking, etc.

The unbiased opinion of an Edmundian.

Placements: There are little to no placements, and they are not course-related, they seem random. Most placements are from banks like ICICI and Axis. It's mostly for clerk positions. The salary package is around 2 LPA, which is not much for the cost of living.

Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi, but we have nice labs. Classrooms are spacious. Hostel is very strict. We need to maintain a curfew at 6 PM. Mess is the best. Medical facilities are not that good. We can play football, basketball, volleyball and badminton.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified, with doctorate degrees. They have years of teaching experience. It's one of the best colleges in Shillong. Semester exams are very tough and challenging for many students, leading to backlogs over the years. It is rather easy for those who are diligent in their studies.

Other: I chose this course because it's easy and one of the best subjects to choose from the arts stream. It has more fieldwork. We hold a college week once a year.
