Life @ NSIT

I was accepted into IIIT Jabalpur, UIET (PU), and NSIT (DU). I had joined NSIT as it provides better placement opportunities and is overall a good college. It is ranked among the top 10 colleges in India. The admission criteria were quite simple, just apply during the counseling rounds and had to pay a security amount of 5000 to book a seat. The minimum marks required were 60% in class XII.

I got this course as I was eligible for this specific course. The faculty is really great and the students get. a great opportunity to interact and learn from one of the best faculty members in India. We had some very distinguished faculty, like one of the youngest triple Ph.D. holders in India. Exams were conducted as per the schedule and it was not a cakewalk to pass the exams as the checking was quite strict and we did not have the percentile system to grade students relatively.

For internships, not a lot of companies come. The majority of the companies come for coding profiles and core electronics profile. Microsoft, AMD, Qualcomm are some of the companies that come in for internships.

Students become eligible for placement from the 7th Semester. More than 150+ companies visit the college every year for placements. The highest package received was of 65 lakhs from sumologic and the average package was in the range on 5-6 lakhs. 99% of students get placed in the placement season.

The fee was hiked post it turned into a University. For the tenure in which I was enrolled, I completed my graduation in less than 4 lakhs (including hostel fees) which I think is comparatively cheaper for a prestigious college like NSIT The scholarship was given every year to the students who scored more than 75% marks in that year.

Moksha was the annual cultural festival that was conducted every year in the month of March. The Tech fest - Innovision was conducted in Feb every year. The library had all the course books along with some extra research books for the students. Every year there was a sports fest which was conducted across the college. We also had a sports fest in our respective hostels. It used to be intra hostel sports meet. We had a lot of societies in college which catered to different interests of the students. - Astronomy Club - Nakshatra - Dramatics Society - Ashwamedh - Debating Society - DebSoc - Automobile Society - BulletHawk Racing

The room was quite simple, with a single bed, a chair & a table along with an inbuilt cupboard. Every room had a window. Most of the rooms were single rooms and some double rooms were also there. The mess food was OKayish (not very tasty usually) The hostel was available for all outside Delhi students and if the rooms were still vacant, they were then allowed to students residing in the far of places in Delhi. We had to apply for a hostel once after coming in the 2nd year and post that our room remained the same for the next 3 years.
