    The college campus is very good.
    Placements: In campus placement, many students got placed at companies such as ABP News, News24, Dainik Jagaran, and Amar Ujala. The lowest package offered was 2 LPA, and the highest package was 4 LPA. The top roles offered were in media marketing and content writing.
    Infrastructure: My college is so big that it has all the facilities you could want, including a play group, library, hostel, mess, and Wi-Fi. The only thing that isn't on campus is the canteen, which is located just outside. There are also medical facilities for minor problems, and games facilities for those who are interested in playing games. And, there are water coolers everywhere.
    Faculty: The professors are very good and supportive. They will help you get a good understanding of the course material. We have regular classes to complete the syllabus, and there are no semester exams. Instead, we take one comprehensive exam at the end of the year.
    Other: I have an interest in news channels and marketing so that's why I have chosen this course. This course will give you the opportunity to work with a news channel. There is college fest and scholarship available for every student.

    Average placements, nice experience, and good teachers.
    Placements: About 18 students have gotten placements this year. The placement ratio is not that good but it is improving. The highest package is, I guess, 3 LPA. News 18, Aaj Tak, Abp News, etc. are recruiting. About 50–70% of students get internships in Ujala, News 18, Aaj tak and so on. The top roles are anchoring, reporting, editors, etc.
    Infrastructure: They have average levels of infrastructure in our department and technological stuff. The hostel is okay. Mess is not available. The hostel fee is INR 7,000/year, so it is cheap but they do not have many facilities. But it's okay to choose. The cleaning routine is not good.
    Faculty: Some teachers are intelligent and experienced but there is a shortage of teachers. Yes, the course is very interesting but you have to do things on your own. Exams are not so tough if you have general knowledge. The passing percentage is like 40. And you can pass the exam if you study on your own. But do not rely on your seniors notes because they made bad ones. So attend the classes and study hard.
    Other: I chose this course because it sounds interesting. The IG lab should be improved. Everything is good.

    MGKVP is an average college to study in for less fee.
    Placements: There are below-average students getting placements from here. You can work as an intern at some of the respected press agencies nearby. 30 to 50 percent of the students get the internship. As an intern, you work for press agencies like Amar Ujala and Dainik Jagran.
    Infrastructure: The classrooms are average in the mass communication department. The library is available. One studio is also available there. Hostels are separate for boys and girls. The hostel is average. There is a park and playground available. At certain times, some of the sports competitions are also organized.
    Faculty: Some professors are contractual, but they are knowledgeable and quite supportive. If you don't have enough money, then you can choose this college. Exams are easy, not that difficult, but you have to study. Students will learn skills in this time period.
    Other: I have interest in this field, but I also have a money crisis. This is why I chose this UG course. Yes, you get the yearly government scholarship. Campus is good.
