Remarks
It was a smooth admission process. The scores for COMEDK were considered. There was a specified cutoff based on the year's scores. The minimum %age for 12th standard marks was about 65% and the minimum age was 17 years. The counselling was done online.
Course Curriculum Overview
The technical courses from RIT are respected and revered in the country. The Civil Engineering branch is the best in this college. There are enough teachers for the doubts of every student. I didn't experience a teacher asking me to go to my own faculty for problem solving. They are well educated and qualified, and well trained. Some teachers were not as good as the others but you can always ignore those. The exams are a bit hectic here. 3 internals and one TEE. You have the option to take only 2 internals in a semester, so it's easier. Compared to this model, most colleges in North India have one internal and one end sem. The exams are not difficult at all by any standard.
Internships Opportunities
There are internship opportunities and the college regularly mails you the details as they come. I received at least one email every month. Most notable were DELL and HP. I can't speak on the stipend as I was already enrolled elsewhere, but there will be enough of both paid and unpaid ones. They help tremendously in the CV building. Take as many as you want.
Placement Experience
Placements are the best thing about this college. You only need to maintain a gpa of 7 or above and the college faculty helps you prepare for the interviews. You will get placed with a good enough score card and basic interview skills. Do not worry about that at all. All kinds of companies visit the campus, from new startups to amazon, even the army. Over 3000 offers are made every year for a batch of around/over 1000 students. The college is very well respected when it comes to placements. You'll benefit with just the name in other interviews for internships and jobs.
Fees and Financial Aid
My tuition fees were 1.65 lac, which is lower than other engineering colleges in Bangalore. You don't really have to spend on books as all are easily available in the library. Moreover, the notes are easily available and very affordable. I didn't buy a single book during the course. There are scholarships available for underprivileged students. I can't speak much of that as I wasn't a recipient.
Campus Life
There are too many fests here haha. Literary fests, cultural fests, annual fests etc. It's a fun life if you participate in the events, and fun if you're just attending. Classrooms are fine, spacious enough. Sometimes the voice of the professor doesn't carry to the back so you may want to skip the last two rows. No AC in the classes as Bangalore has the best weather in the country. You may want to bring a hoodie from September to December. There is a sports complex.. quite newly constructed (in 2017 I believe) with quite enough facilities you'd need. All sorts of clubs and committees exist here. Join one and benefit from the attendance.
