It has an amazing curriculum, well-built infrastructure and facilities, and vibrant campus culture.
Placements: Even though I am not aware of the exact statistics and numbers, many of my seniors have been recruited by top companies like Brain & Company, BCG, Google and Microsoft. Further, my batchmates, right after their first years, got amazing paid internships with various consulting companies with roles varying from HR, marketing, business development and many more. The roles offered in my course are mostly analyst, consultants, and associates but are not limited to these.
Infrastructure: Ashoka offers the best infrastructure and facilities both in terms of academic classrooms and hostels. The lecture halls are in pretty new condition, well-equipped with technology like projectors and speakers, and the library is one of the best architectural features at Ashoka. It has a 2-storeyed library that offers a huge collection of academic and non-academic reading and research material, besides features like discussion rooms, air-conditioned comfortable seating facility with charging point offers you a perfect place to study.

It provides good infrastructure, facilities, and excellent faculty members.
Placements: Around 100% of students are placed. The top recruiters are BCG, Brain and Co., and Microsoft. Through superset, a lot of students are offered internships however it is up to the students to cash the opportunity. Summer consultants are the roles offered in NGOs.
Infrastructure: This college provides excellent hostels and state-of-the-art sports facilities. Every place on campus is equipped with Wi-Fi and is friendly to the ones who are specially abled. The classrooms are good. The food in the mess is not that great but there are a lot of outlets where students can eat.
Faculty: Faculty members are great. Apart from the maths department, all the other departments I have interacted with are very intelligent and helpful. The curriculum is relevant of what is required of an economist when one enters the corporate world. A lot of guest speaker series. Exams are hard but most of the students pass.

It provides the best education.
Placements: The college is still in the formative years, so no official information is available regarding placements for the undergraduate batch. However, companies such as Microsoft, Apple and Deloitte have shown interest to hire the students here. Considering the stellar faculty and course structure, placements should not be a problem at all. The students pursuing Ashoka's Young India fellowship have continuously received amazing placements in companies such as Deloitte, Brain etc.
Infrastructure: We have a campus which is truly state of the art and world class. All students and staff have access to high-speed Wi-Fi. The classrooms are equipped with high tech gadgets. The whole building is dedicated to laboratories of the sciences. Ashoka University also has a world-class sports block complete with a shooting range.
Faculty: The faculty and the course curriculum is probably Ashoka's the biggest asset. The faculty consists of the most distinguished people from their respective fields. Be it PhDs from the Ivies or chief economic advisors of the world bank. The curriculum is extremely rigorous and knowledgeable. We have access to all academic journals and are regularly made to write proper research papers.
Other: I feel this college will be the number one university, not only in India but also in the whole Asia, shortly.

Amazing life balance, lots of events and fests, lots of clubs and societies.
Placements: The CDC of the university isn't very strong. It being a relatively new private university, a lot of the top 4 firms do not come here often. Yet, it is not that they do not at all. Most people however, opt to pursue higher studies after completing their UG here.
Infrastructure: State of the art campus, very well maintained campus. AC buildings, Wi-Fi connection is strong all across campus. The mess is also relatively a lot better than most other colleges. A lot of hang out places for students after class. However, the campus size is a bit small that makes it look a little cramped at times. It is about 20 acres only.
Faculty: Excellent faculty, very helpful. They have office hours wherein students can approach them. The course is also very relevant to the job market now. The course is not very difficult if the students study regularly. And the work life balance is also very good.
