Overall: College is alright but if you are looking for a more social college like making friends and overall more social then I would not recommend this college. But yeah if you just want a degree then you can join.

Faculty: Teachers and other faculty staff are the same as other colleges. Everything happens in a manner and under an administration. But teachers on the contrary may misbehave time to time as they are payed less compared to other college teachers.
