Ummul Jafri's Review On Bharati Vidyapeeth College Of Architecture - [BVCOA] Navi Mumbai, Mumbai

Just the boring infrastructure of my college needs an upgrade.

It's a good course. The course curriculum is good but a little bit of pressurising because there's a lot of syllabus for students like us. Especially if someone's a fresher they get burdened with a lot of work at first, we get the hang of it but then we get more subjects and syllabus.

No placement what so ever in my college which sucks big time becuase that's what a student expects most out of in their choice of college but apparently architecture colleges don't do placement

My college celebrate freshers, navratri (small gathering) one yearly function (two day event) which is the most fun of all. Navratri is just us dressing up for the nine days and attending college and Dancing on the last day to cheapest sound systems. They try to save as much money. We also have an exhibition which displays our work supervised by teachers.

I pay by DD 1,10,000 per year excluding the exam fee which is submitted twice a year 3,500 for a person who has no ATKT (backs in subject) 6,000 for one or two and more and more for students with Yd have to pay 9,000 roughly in the exam cell.

None, that I know of in my college. They do have management quota but I don't know much about that.

Gender ratio is my university is a little difficult to tell but in my college it is more girls and lesser boys. In a class of 80 we have 30 boys and rest girls. Of course there are some criptic teachers who are favourable towards guys and I've seen discrimination in their eyes.

I did in the first year it was affiliated with my college because other college hostels are scary which are present in the campus. There is a new and well organised hostel which is double the price of my course fee.

None of the alumni I've talked to because I'm a second year student and just started developing contact with the super seniors of my college

I took architecture because it is a combination of concepts and creativity which sounded perfect for me. I applied through their online application then I got a mail for counseling and then I got admitted after getting short-listed. I had to wait for a week or more after the counselling session.

Around 8 subjects for a semester, council of architecture accepts students from age 16 and above. All my professors are graduates with architecture and some even have a PhD in different branches of it. The principal is also a PhD and most teachers have masters degree in architecture.
