Our college campus will be fully monitored by the cctv cameras, so that there will be very secured surrounding all over the college campus. Many events will be conducted for the college students. Also many seminars will be held on the college auditorium halls, and these seminars will be helpful to gain knowledge.

The students who are trying to get admission for this college must have a good communication skill in English and good writing skill. Then they have to complete their 10,+2 exams. Then the application form will be available in the college website. The entry amount for this application form was about Rs 500.

I applied for this college online by paying a fee for INR 500 for its entrance exam AIST. I cleared the AIST entrance exam and I was called for counselling. In the counselling process I had to submit my documents and pay a fee of 25,000 as the counselling fee.

I pursued my undergrad course from here, I did my B.des in footwear and design. First of all I filled an online application of INR 500 and then I appeared for their entrance test I somehow managed to clear the exam. After that I was called for the counselling process and submitted my documents and a sum of INR 25,000 as the counselling fee.

The college is a wonderful place to learn new things and expand your knowledge base abut the subject that you want to build your career into. I am having a very good time studying and knowing different people in my college.

The product development center in our college designs footwear according to the needs of the industries keeping in mind the target audience .We have well equipped services with modern software and technology for footwear designing and quality grading.Students are trained on these areas so that they can cater to the needs and requirements of the industry.

Almost all the students got placed from college in major companies like Skechers, Firstcry and Etsy. I don't know the salary packages offered. But most of the companies mentioned above were offering the salary package ranging between 3 LPA to 5 LPA. I would give an average rating because of my personal experience with the placement cell after I left college. Almost 80% of the students got placed, and the remaining either opted for pursuing higher studies or were not ready for a job right now.
