Great university for students who want to learn
Tips: If you are actually looking to study then this is the college for you. If your main focus is to do a job while studying then choose another college as in this college you will have to go to college at least 3 days a week so be prepared for that when you choose this college.
Likes (Student Life): Student life is great. Facilities and on-campus life are awesome. There are many outdoor sports grounds and you will also find good indoor sports facilities. There is a gym and swimming pool as well. Great campus center which has a pool table, table tennis, video games etc.
Dislikes (Part time work): On-campus part-time jobs are tough at this university. You might find one but might take 6-8 months to find it. Even if you get an campus job here the weekly hours are very less. You might not get a full 20 hours of part-time job here. In a rare case scenario, you might find a job which gives 20 hours a week.
