What Students Say
Likes
- Amity Jaipur gives a cinematic campus, decent infrastructure and active events, but admin can feel slow, fees are high for creatives, and placements outside tech/management still need serious improvement.”
- “Campus life is lively: fests, film screenings, sports and clubs make it easy to find your tribe. Social circles are chill and mixed, though a bit image‑conscious at times, more urban‑centric than truly diverse
- Film faculty are fairly qualified, approachable and open to ideas, with a mix of academic and industry exposure. Mentorship is decent, but teaching quality varies by teacher and some classes lean too theory‑heavy.
Dislikes
- “Gender ratio on campus feels near balanced but slightly boy‑heavy in film and tech; across the university it roughly hovers around 60:40 boys to girls, so you get a mixed peer group in most classes.”
- “BA Film & TV syllabus covers basics of cinematography, editing, sound and theory, but could push deeper into real‑world sets, web content and freelance realities. A lot depends on how much extra work you put in.”
- Green Wi‑Fi campus, AC classrooms, okay studios and labs, solid library and decent hostel safety. Still, some gear feels dated, hostel rules are strict and mess/food options don’t always match the fees we pay.
Course Curriculum Overview
Chose BA Film & TV at Amity Jaipur because the mix of cinematography, editing, script and production felt aligned with film practice. Curriculum is decent for basics and portfolios, but could go deeper into indie/web work. Two exams a sem + internals; tough but fair if you stay consistent.
Fees and Financial Aid
“BA Film Production & TV at Amity Jaipur: I’m paying around 96k a year (tuition plus reg, lab, dev and other mandatory charges), totalling roughly 2.9L, with a slight fee hike for new batches. Some of us get Amity merit / merit?cum?need style waivers that cut tuition significantly.
Campus Life
Campus life at Amity Jaipur pulses with Odyssey (techno-cultural fest, late March like 27-29th), Aarambh freshers (Oct), sports meets. Library packs 40k+ books, journals via Web OPAC. AC smart classrooms w/ projectors. Sports: football, tennis, gym, horse riding, rifle range. Clubs like film society, sports, dance boost networks & reels. Solid infra, chill vibes
Admission
Picked Amity Jaipur's BA Film & TV Production over NIMS Jaipur, Whistling Woods Mumbai (rejected, too competitive JEE-like entrance), FTII Pune (didn't qualify JET exam), Symbiosis Pune cuz Jaipur location, balanced curriculum (cinematography, editing, scripting), Amity brand, direct admit with 80%+ 12th—no cutoffs, just SOP/PI. Other confirms: NIMS. Amity wins on infra, fests, easier entry.
Faculty
Faculty–student ratio is fairly low and classes feel personal; most profs are approachable and open to feedback. Continuous assessment + end?term (30:70) keeps you on your toes but pass rates are good if you stay regular. Curriculum mixes theory and practicals, usefully aligned to media work.
