The following are the benefits and drawbacks of not having a hostel at FMS, Delhi:
Pros:
When Freshers set out to arrange their own housing for the next two years, it was a completely new experience for them.
Helps to act as a bonding activity for the students of the new batch even before the start of the session.
Allows students to live according to their preferences for the next two years.
As a result, the two years are more relaxed than at other top B-Schools in the country because no unexpected classes can be scheduled after a certain time of day, unlike at other fully residential B-Schools.
Cons:
Students are put under additional pressure before the start of the session to arrange for their own lodging.
It raises the overall cost of the course for the next two years. Despite the fact that it is a two-year course for the rest of the world. Other than tuition, there are numerous other expenses, and the lack of a college hostel significantly increases them.
Less rigor than other fully residential B-SCHOOLS. Few IIMs even hold classes at 11 p.m. And it is viewed positively by corporations as rigor. However, this is not possible at FMS.
Thus, despite its pros and cons, it is a completely different experience that students should endure during their two wonderful years at FMS.
