To be honest, I like this college very much, and the facilities are very up to the mark.

Placements: So, as we know, we have a government college, so we don't get placements, but we get a Bachelor's degree, and we also have a Master's for commerce students. As everyone knows, government colleges don't have placements, except in some special cases, but we have a good study course.

My college review, all the best.

Placements: Sadly, there is no placement available at our university. But you can apply to other Sikkimese universities, which are private, and they can give you placements. But the skills you'll be learning throughout the journey will not upset you at the end; these will bring a lot of opportunities in the future.

Dissatisfied with faculty.

Placements: The college offers zero placement after graduation. No placement facility is provided in the college after graduation. There should be a facility provided by the college for the placement of students according to their final results. All the students are left with only a graduation certificate.

It does not totally make a person ready for the industry, and the infrastructure is good.

Placements: There were 40 students in each course and we also had 40 students. There are no recruiting companies for our course; they are only for degrees, and further studies have to be done. We don't get internships in our college, and we don't work for the companies while studying in this course. There are no top roles offered.
