Review of Gurucharan College.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is decent. Other than the washroom facilities, females do not have many facilities for it. There are separate hostels for boys and girls. The fee for the hostel is also not that high. The library is also a decent place where one will not be disturbed while studying.

Cit Kokrajhar. Best for book lovers for the library.

Infrastructure: The outer infrastructure is good, but a few classrooms are not as good as others. The library is the best thing here. The best. The hostel has the best facilities here: big, clean, Wi-Fi 24/7, and water 24/7. The mess is bad, but the canteen is good. The sports facilities are very bad. We don’t even have an indoor stadium, and sports equipment is not given regularly.

Placement opportunities are quite satisfactory.

Infrastructure: The college provides limited medical and sports facilities. The food quality is okay. The college provides accommodation with basic living space, but we will need to bring our own necessities. The classrooms are Wi-Fi enabled, and the college provides access to a library and computer lab.

Overall, it is the best college for M.Sc.

Infrastructure: Nearly every facility for students was provided. Labs, hygienic classrooms, a library, Wi-Fi, laptops, and other teaching-related equipment were among the amenities offered by the college. The hostel was of good quality. The cost of the food at the canteen was a little higher than normal. The medical facilities were good. Our college’s sports facilities were excellent. At least once a week, we played kabaddi, basketball, hockey, cricket, and football.
