First-year overview of NITS.

Infrastructure: Classrooms have projectors and whiteboards. The lecture halls are huge and well-maintained. There are Wi-Fi connections. Hostels rooms are pretty average with low maintained infrastructure. The food in the mess is also pretty average and better than the stereotypical mess food.

Good college but has improper administration.

Infrastructure: The internet services are a bit weak here. The college is a bit old. The infrastructure is also a bit old-fashioned. The basic facilities are provided like Wi-Fi, etc. Classrooms are not digitalized. The library timings are restricted. The food in the mess is average. You will get used to it with your taste. Medical facilities are there, but there are a bit less. You can find a good hospital nearby.

Review of NIT Silchar College.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not so good in NIT Silchar. Some newly made buildings like New Gallery, Library, and the admin building are good, including some newly made hostels like Aryabhatta (for 1st years) and BH9. But most of the infrastructure is outdated as NIT Silchar is an old institute started from 1967.

The nature's beauty: NIT Silchar.

Infrastructure: In NIT Silchar, the classrooms are good and have the capacity of 90 students per room. We have a large new gallery where it has many rooms, and each room can contain 150 students. In the hostel, we have double-seater rooms, and we are getting 24-hour LAN facility. The quality of mess food is not so good. We have a health center where medicine is available. We have grounds for every sport, like badminton, cricket, basketball, football, etc.

NITS- Though not the best but not even that bad.

Infrastructure: Every piece of infrastructure required in a college is present and usable but being an old college, the buildings and all might look a bit old. Internet connectivity is available in hostels, library and labs. Hostel rooms are also nice but the food is just like any average hostel, i.e., not up to par. Sports and games can be played by the students as playgrounds and sports complexes are usable.

Overall the journey is superb.

Infrastructure: In the classroom, there are two boards, and the classroom can accommodate 80 students. The hostels are average; in the 1st semester, they provide 2- or 3-sharing rooms. In each room, there are two lockers, one fan, one LED light, and one study table and chair per person. The room also has one small balcony.

NIT Silchar - beyond the fairytale campus.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is outdated and old. The hostels are good but you would have several problems related to LAN and cleanliness. But sports facilities are great; to be honest, you have a cricket field, a football field, an indoor sports complex, a trekking club and other sports clubs that conduct parallel sports too, like chess and all. Medical facilities are available but only on paper; for the slightest convenience, you need to rush to Silchar Medical College. Mess food is okay; don't expect s...

Our Vision Towards College.

Infrastructure: The faculty members are very good in our college; they help at every moment. They also tell us to do research work. The structure of our college is good in some places, but the labs have old equipment. The hostel provides very good facilities; they provide seated rooms, and also a land and balcony. The size of the rooms is also very big. The food in the mess is not very good; they give fewer green vegetables.

The place where we get best lessons of life.

Infrastructure: I like the city; it is a nature-friendly and calm place. Big, beautiful, and peaceful campus. Students from across India is find here. Amenities are good. Mostly, we have work at computer labs. There, high-speed internet and amenities are provided. The college library has restricted timing, but we can also take books to the hostel.

Overall, I can say NIT Silchar is the best place to graduate.

Infrastructure: The hostel is completely fine and well-equipped, as well as the department facility is also the best. You will get everything, including Wi-Fi, labs, and all the quality of our hostel is the best ever. For example, you will get fully free internet along with 24-hour light and water, etc. The food quality of mess food is not that much good, as well as canteen food is also not that much good. And the rest, all the facilities are the best at NITs.

Labs are really amazing, and all equipment is present in the labs. The infrastructure of our hostel is very nice, since our hostel is also new, that is, Aryabhatta hostel.

Cleaning facilities are very good and every two days. Clean up the corridors which I found very appreciable. But I don't like the quality of food because I belong to other states.
