Overall, the college is good. The only problem is with placements.
Placements: Ours is the first batch of B.Sc. nautical science, so we don't have seniors. Till now, 2 students got placed out of 25. Companies like Synergy, Dockendale, etc., are visiting the campus. In the maritime field, only the stipend is offered, not salary. There is no placement cell in the college.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is quite good as the campus area is not huge, but it has many facilities like a football ground which is often used as a cricket ground as well. We have a volleyball court, which is of good class (synthetic), a basketball court and a table tennis court. The campus has a good academic building, a new well-built hostel building and the old hostel building. A new building has been constructed which will be the bridge room simulation for the B.Sc. nautical science students as it is a part of the syllabus. The management has also planned for a swimming pool.
Faculty: Faculty members are good as they are dedicated to students. Maximum of them are retired captains from Merchant Navy. But, one thing is that the number of permanent faculty was very less, and the maximum faculty in our college are visiting faculty. They try to teach us well, but due to some academic issues, they weren't able to support us.
Other: A seminar is conducted at the end of every month. Scholarships were provided to the students according to the merit list.

You can join Tolani Maritime Institute through IMU CET only. It is mandatory from 2016 for someone to give TMISAT after you pass IMUCET. TMI from 2016 will come under IMU and not under BITS. So, you can't get admission without giving IMUCET. Good luck.
