Sggs college sector 26 Chandigarh .

Infrastructure: The campus is the best thing about this college. It's big and clean. The classrooms are well-equipped, and the teachers always teach us in the lab. The apparatus are in very good condition. The best thing is that we don't have to share our apparatus or do any experiments by forming any groups. Also, we don't have to buy any books as all the books are available in the library. The hostel is good, and we are served three meals, a snack, and milk in the morning. You pay INR 80,000 per year.

College furniture needs to be changed. There should be more placements.

Infrastructure: Furniture needs to be changed and renewed; the wooden furniture is not comfortable for a 45-minute lecture; there should be good quality furniture; hostels are lacking in facilities based on their perceptions; the perceptions are increasing year after year, but the facilities do not.

Good college with facilities, poor campus .

Infrastructure: The infrastructure facilities are good, but the campus is small compared to other colleges. Wi-Fi is accessible at smart points. The hostel has restricted timings, which are more strict for girls, as their hostel closes at 7:30-8:00 pm.

I'm satisfied with my faculty and the labs and library are good .

Infrastructure: Our college faculty is very nice and cooperative, and our college's infrastructure is also good. Nice and clean washrooms, and as a girl, I personally like the cleanliness in the washrooms. Sanitary pad machines are provided, and there is a separate room for girls only. The classes are also nice. The library is good, and there is a reading room for students. The labs provide the instruments and chemicals we need for experiments, and in the hostel, the food is nice.

I'm very dissatisfied with the placements which are provided by the college.

Infrastructure: The Wi-Fi at our college is of no use; it doesn't work anywhere except the library and celebration grounds. Classrooms are not well built; they are very suffocating in the summer, and the benches are very uncomfortable. It would be better if there were more fans in the classroom.

SD College, Chandigarh - worth it or not.

Infrastructure: The college has great facilities. It has four canteens, and various types of products are available in each one of them. Refreshments are also available at an affordable price. The college has a big library, and almost all kinds of books are available there and are properly arranged so that students can find them easily. There is also a reading hall above the canteen where we can study peacefully.

Those who actually want to study can join the institute and explore a lot.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure was good. It is a government college, and the building and infrastructure were like any other government building. Computer labs are available for students during college hours. There are four hostels in the college. The food is also okay, and all other facilities are also there.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, but the washrooms are not so good. There is no Wi-Fi available in the college or in the computer labs also. But there is a lot of greenery on the college campus, which is a plus point. The hostel infrastructure is too good, and the washrooms are also nice with a warm water supply during winter.
