    Good college and worthy to join.
    Placements: About 20-30% of students were placed in my college last year. The top recruiting companies were Wipro, TCS, etc. The highest package offered by Wipro is 3LPA and by TCS is also 3LPA. About 50% of students got internships in various startup companies with a small stipend.
    Infrastructure: I am studying at Yeldo Mar Baselios College, Kothamangalam affiliated with MG University. The overall infrastructure is good and it is a wi-fi-free campus. The computer labs are not much good because not every computer works properly but almost every system is good. The hostel and mess are bad.
    Faculty: The teachers are friendly in my college. All the faculty members are good. The teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is relevant it makes the students get more professional. The semester exams are conducted correctly but the result publishing is so late.
    Other: I chose the Bachelor of Computer Application because it is a good degree to get and it has more value in industries with extra add-on certificates. My college provides Add courses with the degree. I don't know about the scholarships but there are pre-matric and post-matric scholarships. Events and fests conducted are also good.

We also have a strong faculty team, and their support and teamwork are at the peak.
    Infrastructure: We have a good environment on the campus including what every student needs. The campus is good and eco-friendly. There are 3 blocks with common rooms and departments. Special rooms and gym facilities are provided for hostel students. There are smart classes and Wi-Fi labs. Special medical assistance is also provided for us.
    Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful in giving us ideas and are supportive. We can see the strong management of faculty members in our college, as they are playing like a team for the students to win. The college management created a strong core faculty base for different courses. There is a special team for sports activities.
    Other: Events are conducted on major days and specials days. The surroundings are good, eco-friendly, and clean.

    You can go for BCA after class 12th, if you have computer as one of the subject, where if you have studied C+ Java beside my SQL etc., then the course will be easy else you'll struggle.
