It provides good facilities and good teachers. It is one of the best and under the top 10 colleges.

Infrastructure: Our college provides one big library, Wi-Fi, 4 computer labs, and an individual BCA department. In our college, medical rooms are available. The food quality is very good. Most importantly our canteen is very big and popular as compared to all canteens in college. Sports complex is available in our college.

Short review of GMCH college for nursing.

Infrastructure: For nursing, it is very poor. Like, only 2 lecture theatres in college and clinical hours are too much. The hostel is combined with the two lecture theatres, which is awful. For attending external subjects, we have to go to E block many times, which is really frustrating. College timing is 9 to 5. No Wi-Fi for students. The library is too good (2 libraries in college). No canteen in college, but in E block of the hospital, there are lots of canteens.

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.

Infrastructure: Classrooms don't have AC. Only the library, CS, and IT labs have it. There’s Wi-Fi in the hostel and academic block. Hostel rooms are okay as expected. Mess food is just eatable. There’s a dispensary for medical facilities open from 9 AM to 1 PM on working days, Monday to Friday. There's an annual sports meet of 3-4 days, which consists of various sports and athletic events. There’s a basketball court, football/cricket ground, volleyball court, badminton court, kho ground, and gym.

It's a good college for studies. Campus is good. But placements are not worth it.

Infrastructure: The rooms of the girls hostel are average-looking. The average size, not many facilities, no Wi-Fi, and the and the library are pretty good, though. The quality of the food is worth the money. The canteen is nearby and provides tasty food that is mostly clean. Medical facilities are provided.

Value for money, and good placement opportunity.

Infrastructure: The campus of Panjab University is completely accessible to UIET students; hence, we have a swimming pool, playground, shooting range, and many other facilities to name a few. Our entire campus is Wi-Fi enabled. We have two libraries: one is 24 hours, called AC Joshi, and the other is specifically for UIET, open during college hours. Classrooms are moderately good with AC classes for CSE and IT departments.

Average college in this fee.

Infrastructure: Hostel life was good, and one room was shared by two people. The fee for the hostel was 19,000 yearly, and a single room sharing costs more. Labs were well-built in college, and canteen food was not that impressive. The mess food was in the worst condition, I would say.
