    Our college has quality education, good placements, and great infrastructure.
    Placements: Placements are great. Many reputed companies and institutions, like Times of India, Hindu, etc., come here to select candidates. It's easy to get internships if you are a part of Stella, as many internships are given based on the college. We can get jobs like teaching at Stella itself, doing editorial and creative writing, etc., based on our course.
    Infrastructure: The facilities are good. We have a gym, a spacious NSS ground, a green hut, and five mini canteens with one main canteen. There are limited food options, but they are of good quality and appropriately priced. We do have sports for the 1st and 2nd years, like yoga, basketball, throwball, aerobics, etc., that are compulsory. The library is huge, with an internet cafe provided, but you need to pay for using Wi-Fi.
    Faculty: Our teachers are great. Not only do they teach, but they engage us in interactive sessions. Sometimes the lectures are delivered with PowerPoint presentations. The course syllabus is relevant but a bit excessive. It will surely improve your understanding. Semester exams are difficult. They conduct 3-hour exams for 100 marks each. It's based on your preparation. The minimum pass percentage is 45%.
    Other: I chose this course because I didn't just want to do literature but also something else in depth. This course is a combination of literature and psychology. Not only do we study how literature works but also the process that goes behind it. Aside from that, we have some interesting subjects such as presentation skills, academic writing, media writing, English for language teaching, English for advertising, and technical writing. The college does organise a festival annually. Each department organises an annual seminar, lecture series, and events.

    Advanced syllabus and good placements.
    Placements: The college provides quite good placements. Only final-year students can sit for placements. Companies like KPMG, PwC, Deloitte, Accenture, ICICI Bank, and many other startup companies will be coming throughout the year. More students will be hired from the Commerce and Arts departments compared to the Science departments.
    Infrastructure: The campus is not that big, but it is well-maintained and surrounded by trees. The classrooms are smart classrooms, and there is a well-established library, computer labs, science labs, etc. The college has 2-3 small auditoriums where various talks and workshops happen.
    Faculty: The syllabus is advanced and will be updated once every three years. Most of the faculty members are highly qualified. Components like seminar presentations, assignments, and article writing, etc., as part of the internals, will help you gain more knowledge. There will be two written exams, from which the marks of one will be taken for internals.

    Placements: Almost 60% of students got placed in our course. The highest salary package and the lowest salary package are the same. Fly Albatros is the top recruiting company for our course. Around 75% of students got internships from our course in Flying Albatros. The top roles offered are archeologist, tour manager, airport customer service, cuisine etc.
    Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are very good in our college. Wi-Fi is available and is very good, and there are no network problems. There are physics labs, chemistry labs, botany labs and computer labs available. Classrooms are good, with individual tables for every student. The library is very good.
    Faculty: Teachers are really helpful in clarifying our doubts. They are qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is the best compared to other colleges. This course curriculum is relevant and makes the students ready to survive in the world. If you study well, the exams are very easy. The pass percentage is 100%.
    Other: I chose this course for government jobs. By studying this course, we can easily write UPSC and TNPSC exams.

    It is an excellent college and you feel blessed to be in here.
    Placements: Our college provides higher qualifications and placements in high positions. The college provides you with many opportunities and will introduce many classes, workshops and seminars. Thus we could connect with more people and companies and also we get an idea of how to be in a position.
    Infrastructure: We have air-conditioned halls and a huge library. The food served is excellent. Our college provides many sports and games including NCC, etc. Joining this college makes a feel of enjoying the part of life and the canteen is too messy but still we often buy food every day.
    Faculty: Every teacher is the best in our college. We cant blame a complaint on the college because the faculty members and the whole college team are the best that I have ever seen. The exams are good and if it is difficult we may see that as simple because we have been taught in such way.

    Our college is good. But this place might seem fun, but it does not prove its experience.
    Placements: Our college rarely works for placements, and they are conducted only in few departments. Our college needs to work more on that part to make it worth it for students education. So, they deserve a better place in the future despite the bad marks they get due to the strict evaluation.
    Infrastructure: The classrooms are actually bad here. They need to be more spacious, and the ventilation is very bad. The chairs are very uncomfortable like they are designed for 6th-grade students in the M block. The library is good. We are not allowed to use mobile phones, so the network doesn't matter. The canteen is amazing. The food served in the mess is great, but the place needs improvement.
    Faculty: The faculty members are good in this department. They are approachable and trustworthy with any issue at all. They also teach very well. It is one of the best departments in the college and the best in the city with the language teachers follow to teach. Exams are very strictly conducted, which provides a lot of stress.
