Students are not satisfied with the college.
Placements: The college does not provide many placements. Placements in our college are not good. About 40-50% of students got an internship at our college.

About 60-70% of students got an internship in companies like News18, Dainik Jagran, News 24, Amar Ujala and some other newspapers.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is bad. The college does not provide Wi-Fi in our college. Labs are bad. The library is not bad, but it is not air-conditioned. I do not stay at the hostel. But I heard that very bad quality of food is served for the students. The hostel is not good.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful, well-qualified and knowledgeable. Some teachers teaching quality is not good. Some teachers just come to finish their work. The course curriculum is relevant, and it makes the students industry-ready.
Other: I have chosen this course because I want to become a news anchor. The best thing in our course is that you have many ways in this field. The college should provide news anchoring classes. Events and fests are organised at our college.
