    The best time spent in college.

    Faculty: Faculty members are very good as they make feel us like our own family members. They are just amazing. We have 6 mid-semester exams. In the whole course, the exam level is competitive as this will help us in our future studies.
    Other: I have chosen this college for its name, fame, and a renowned university. The best thing is that this is an affordable college for everyone. We get the best infrastructure and study at a very affordable price. We get scholarships as it is a government college. Every type of function and fests are conducted.

    The Heritage of Learning ; Ravenshaw.
    Placements: 80 percent of the students who pursued this course are placed. As it is a professional course of teaching, mainly various schools recruit. In the last semester of our course, we are provided internships by our department in various government schools. Although it is not a paid internship, we students developed our knowledge at the ground level.
    Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure available in our department are up to the mark. Like free Wi-Fi is available, classrooms are digitalized, some classrooms are air-conditioned, and in every department, there is a seminar library. The quality of the facilities in Ravenshaw hostels is also good and very hygienic. No ACs are there in the hostel rooms, but in every hostel, there is a reading room. A dispensary is also there, and a canteen facility is also available with hygienic food.
    Faculty: The faculty members here are very well-qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is also excellent. Most of the professors of our department have completed their education from prestigious institutions of India. Yes, the course curriculum is also relevant, and it has practical aspects also, and it makes the students industry-ready. The difficulty level of the semester exams is moderate. Mostly 80% of the students get the passing marks.
    Other: First of all, I chose this course because it is a professional course that can help me further in my career as I am doing integrated B.Ed. The best things about my course are that it covers every subject and helps us in our personality development also. The things which I wish to be better in our course is to inculcate technology learning.

    Ravenshaw for you surely is a home away from home, specially for hostel life.
    Placements: No placements are available in our course, if you want placement you should not opt for this course i.e. Bachelors in hist hons. B.Com and BBA have good placements in our college. Delloite also comes. Choose history only if you are ready to take the risk for your passion, it can be a good background for your UPSC or government job preparation, but I don't think that reason alone can be enough.
    Infrastructure: The college campus feels like home, there are 2 libraries and classrooms that have digital boards and each depth has CCTV. Hostel rooms are mostly on a sharing basis of 5 or 6, which can get tiring with time. And mess food is very poor. But the hostel is very affordable.
    Faculty: Teachers are helpful, yes it is relevant. Semester exams in our college are moderate to hard. Faculty can be strict with attendance as they deduct marks from our internal and call our parents if we have low attendance. This course doesn't make you industry-ready. The pass percentage in my course is almost 95%, it is easy to pass this course if you study sincerely.
    Other: I choose this course only because of my passion. I wish placements and practical training were involved in our cost. There are a lot of funds held in our college.

    This university is absolutely worthy in terms of faculty, curriculum, sports, and infrastructure.
    Placements: The placement cell in Ravenshaw University is amazing. Being a government college, the highest LPA they provide on campus is nearly 3-4 lakhs, and the fees are always less than that. The main placements are in self-finance courses, B.Com, B.A. Economics, and similar fields. The least amount in placement is 1.2 lakhs LPA.
    Infrastructure: The course facilities are amazing for both UG and PG, as they provide a lot of honors in UG and many options for specialization in PG. The hostel facilities are also impressive compared to other government college hostels, and the food provided there is good. In total, there are 13 hostels—12 hostels inside the campus (6 for boys and the rest for girls) and one hostel outside the campus for boys.
    Faculty: The faculty present here is really knowledgeable. Their commitment to making students learn is remarkable, which helps students to learn efficiently. The course curriculum is also good for the future of the students, as it prepares them for the industry due to its competitive environment. The semester exams are not that difficult if you study the course efficiently, and the passing percentage in every stream usually stays up to 75-80%.
    Other: I would suggest this is one of the best colleges, where you can get great facilities. Moreover, campus life is amazing, and there are fests to enjoy during non-exam sessions. The campus is always active in extracurricular activities.

    Ravenshaw: A heritage of learning.
    Placements: Nearly 80 percent of people from our university got placements in EY Global and other companies like TATA. But as we have a government college, the on-site placements are not that prominent. We were required to prepare a CV to get enrolled in those companies but still, placement opportunities are limited.
    Infrastructure: Our departments are very well built and especially they have high technological tools and machines. We have specialised E-Resource centres and labs to attend those specialised tasks. The food provided by our hostel is quite good and we too have many courts for sports activities.
    Faculty: The teachers are very friendly and knowledgeable, as they were graduated from top universities. Their teaching quality is very understanding and proficient. The semester exams are quite difficult and done very strictly, though after taking regular classes, one should not face any difficulty.
    Other: The department is one of a kind and the course is both technical and theoretical. Being one of the most famous universities in Odisha, Ravenshaw attracts a large amount of students from different parts of Odisha. The campus life is quite fun with lots of events and everything.
