My view about VASAVI(vce)

I have secured a rank of 2050 in TS Eamcet exam(2020), and after councelling rounds 1 and 2, I have got a seat in this college (Vasavi college of engineering) in the ECE branch. After few days of the completion of the second round of councelling for TS Eamcet, the college administration has released a notification regarding Internal Sliding for vacant seats in all branches. The next day I attended the college for internal sliding and chose CSE and CSM(computer science and engineering with specialization in AI&ML) as my preferred branches for sliding. Later we got the message from college, which said that I have slid into the CSE branch, because of the sliding,I lost my eligibility for the Fee Reimbursement program, so the next day we went to college, paid the full fee, and confirmed my seat in the CSE branch. Earlier, I have applied for VIT and secured a seat in the ECE branch, and paid the fee. The main reason for not joining VIT later is the huge fee structure.

I have chosen the CSE course because of its good prospects in the future and good placements. The faculty to student ratio in our college is good and it is around 1:14. Most of the faculty here hold 1 or more master's degrees in subjects regarding their department of teaching, also they are friendly and use good teaching methods. Being an Autonomous college, the curriculum here for CSE is good and it is updated every year. We have 2 internal exams and 1 final exam for every course. The difficulty level of exams is decent, anyone who works hard enough can easily score around 9 gpa.

Along with placements, many internship oppurtunities are provided for the final year students in companies like Amazon, ServiceNow, factset, oracle, infosys, hitachi etc. Apart from them a few internship oppurtunities are also provided by the college, for the students in their third year.

In general, only the students from the final year are eligible for campus placements. Many companies like Amazon, Servicenow, uber, cisco, oracle, accolite, Infosys, Deloitte, tcs, etc.. visit the college every year for on-campus placements. The total number of offers made for the year 2020-2021 was 68. Students from CSE, IT, ECE get placed with avg packages of 6-7 LPA. Students from other branches are also mostly placed with avg packages ranging from 3.5 to 5 LPA According to placements of the year 2020-2021, 81.29% of the students eligible for placements were placed into various companies. few good offers from various companies were, Uber- 22.75 Lpa Amazon- 21 Lpa Servicenow- 21 Lpa Cisco- 18 Lpa Visa Inc.- 15.4 Lpa Oracle- 11 Lpa Accolite, Ivesco, Factset, LTI- 9 Lpa.

Students who got into the college under Convener quota i.e. through Eamcet councelling with a rank below 10,000, are residents of Telangana state and have an annual income lessthan 2,50,000(as of 2020), are eligible for the fee reimbursement program by the Telangana State government and the whole fee for the four years is paid by the state govt. In college also there were a few scholarship oppurtunities for financial assistance and for providing free laptops for students. Apart from the annual fee of 1,30,000, students based on their residence locations may have to opt for a college bus (around 25,00 a year), or for private hostels, since the college does not provide hostel facilities (5k to 7.5k per month). I am currently in my second year of the course and didn't get any job or take part in any internship provided by the college.

Every year Two main annual fests are conducted by the college, which is Euphoria and Acumen. Euphoria is the annual cultural fest that is held on a large scale with many activities. Acumen is the Annual Technical fest. These are usually conducted in the months of March and April. We have a huge library with more than 1,00,000 books and also an e-library computer center with around 90,000 e-books. All the classrooms are well equipped with computers and projectors. There are decent facilities for indoor games and for outdoor games we have a badminton court, volleyball court, basketball court, and a cricket ground. There are many clubs and chapters like a google developers club, toastmasters club, model united nation club, SWAYAM entrepreneurship club along with some cultural and technical clubs. All the students are allowed to join in them from the second year of their college.
