Overall: It is an acceptable school, however, don't expect something wonderful. I find academia to be difficult yet fair. You can meet a lot of people in the social scene if you get involved into different activities or organizations.

Placement: Their job numbers are high, but major marketing fields like business and engineering are among them. Others may require a bit of self-hustle. college is linked with many companies for placement.

Infrastructure: By and large, academic buildings and libraries are usually decent, but accommodations ranges considerably. A lot of dorms can be considered broken-down unless you choose to pay premium rates.

Faculty: While some professors are smart and they are passionate about teaching, there are plenty of other teachers who don’t seem to care and they just do a lecture from their PowerPoint presentation. Check ratemyprofessors for reviews on them.

Hostel: If you don’t want to be living in the most basic dorms, be ready for the new housing and bare-bone amenities. Dining room food gets also very monotonous and unsatisfying surprisingly fast.

Overall: However, the university overall suits my purpose but still, not what I was expecting. Learned much more than imagined and experienced a friendly campus environment if you participate in the social events.

Placement: They serve in better employment prospects basis, and so they are good people for fields such as business, engineering, nursing. Some people might have to work a little bit more to succeed whereas others might luckily get offers easily.

Infrastructure: Fortunately, classroom buildings and libraries are relatively modern and up-to-date; but, the place I really struggle with is housing. With living amidst all these outdated dorms along with dealing with the surging parking hassles.

Hostel: I guess only those who are ready to endure the crappy life of a college amidst cramped and barebones dorms with very few amenities will get the chance to study in either of the two schools, maybe if they are lucky enough to be able to afford paid housing.
