The Computer Applications course at the college is structured with a favorable faculty-to-student ratio of 2:50, ensuring students have access to approachable and responsive teachers. Each department is staffed with 7-8 experienced faculty members, particularly strong in practical knowledge within the Computer Science department. The curriculum is rigorous, entailing 8 exams per semester, with 10 exams in even semesters due to additional practicals. Despite moderate exam difficulty, the passing rate is low, with about 70% of students experiencing backlogs.
In contrast, the BSc Non-Medical program has 15 exams plus 3 practicals yearly, with a failure rate of 40-50% mainly due to irregular attendance. Course content has been criticized for its outdated focus, such as basic C language codes, which may not align with modern industry demands. The college fees are considered affordable, with the first-year BSc Computer Application (Non-Medical) fee at 5400 INR, dropping to 4540 INR in the following years.
SC/ST students benefit from reduced fees around 3000 INR. Numerous scholarships are available, including the Pose Scholarship for general category students and up to 12000 INR annually for SC/ST students. Exceptional students in the top 1% of state 12th exams may receive a substantial Pose Scholarship of 60,000 INR annually. Female students have further reduced fees, between 3000-4000 INR per year. Approximately half of the students benefit from various scholarships, facilitated by programs like the National Scholarship Portal, SC-BC stipends, and the Post Matric Scholarship for OBC and SC students.
Beyond academics, the college encourages participation in extracurricular activities, including essay writing, debates, and sports, contributing to a well-rounded educational experience.
