I studied at this college for two years, and my overall experience was extremely disappointing. The quality of teaching is not satisfactory, and the staff is not supportive toward students. Many staff members behave rudely and tend to show unnecessary authority instead of helping students. Even when mistakes are made by the administration, students are often blamed and shouted at rather than being assisted properly. Another serious concern is how the college handles internal issues. If any problem occurs on campus, such as ragging or other incidents, the management appears more focused on protecting the college’s reputation rather than properly addressing the situation or supporting the affected students. The administrative process is also very slow and inefficient. Even basic tasks like form submissions or document processing take an unnecessarily long time. Students are frequently asked to come back later multiple times. For example, when I went to collect my Leaving Certificate (LC), I had to visit the college for four consecutive days. Each day I was asked to return the next day, which wasted a lot of my time before I finally received the document on the fourth day. Security management on campus is also questionable. I have personally observed that the bouncers often allow certain outsiders or non-college students to enter the campus without proper identification or ID cards. At the same time, disciplined students are strictly asked to show their ID cards. There is a parking area behind the ground that extends inside the campus and has bushes and small trees around it. I have personally seen groups of these outsiders gathering there and openly drinking alcohol and partying in that area. During such times, the bouncers sometimes prevent regular college students from entering that space, possibly to avoid complaints about what is happening there. Additionally, when students need the Principal’s signature on forms, the admission department sends them to the Principal’s office. However, after reaching there, the staff and peons often behave rudely with students instead of guiding them properly. I personally experienced this kind of behavior during my visits. Overall, my experience at this college was very poor. The teaching quality, staff behavior, administration, and campus management require serious improvement. Students should carefully evaluate all aspects before considering taking admission here.
I've done my higher secondary and graduation from here. It is one of the best college's pune. Staff is quite experienced, however, the college isn't strict as other college's so the newcomers in most of the cases flunk in their higher secondary education. The college is quite old and has a very rich educational history. Glad I had done my education from here.
