Take the admission if u r not doing graduation for job.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is pretty good, especially the garden. However, the building is quite old and not aesthetically pleasing for a commerce college. The hostel is like a basic government hostel, and it is located near the building. The washrooms are clean, and the medical facilities are quite good as the university has its own department for all of this. On the plus side, the boys' and girls' classes are separate, but the library and other facilities are co-ed.

Review of Wing Christian College.

Infrastructure: College infrastructure is very unique its like you are entering a British museum, as there have been no changes made in its infrastructure since it was made so it makes you remember old Indian culture and Indian heritage, as well as being an autonomous Christian college.

If I summarize my college, it is not for money, but yes, it is good.

Infrastructure: If I talk about the faculty and then switch to the college, it is a mess. The infrastructure is massive, and they are also good. They are educated; they are all Ph.D. Sorry, I would say they have a decent amount of knowledge, but not the highest standards. Wi-Fi and the classrooms are also fine. We do even have a canteen in the college. Medical facilities are available 24/7. Sports and games are conducted once a week.

Facilities are good but there are no placements.

The fee here is quite low as it is a government college of University of Allahabad. Wi-Fi is provided in the college but its speed is quite low. There is a laboratory in the college.
