College Infrastructure & Hostel Facilities : HOSTEL There is one college hostel for Boys. And two for Girls.  Boys hostel is having single bedrooms. The hostel is very old(built along with college, but next to campus). Rooms are spacious. The hostel room costs around Rs.4000 per month. But there's no hostel mess. The hostel canteen is close to the hostel(also open to the public). The rates are very low for quality food in the canteen. [details about girls hostel are not known]. If you want you can stay outside as rooms and homes are available nearby for accommodation. It'll cost the same as staying in the hostel. From experience, I'll personally prefer staying in the college hostel. FACILITIES The college has good facilities. The library is very good(one of the best). It has good books. The library system is very superb and the library also provides internet access to students.  Classrooms are spacious and some of the classes are having projectors. Most of the classes have chalkboard system. The physics department has seminar room and 2 labs. One is undergraduate and the other post-graduate. The undergraduate lab is very old and very horrible. The lab is having 1940s pieces of equipment, which doesn't work most of the time. The teachers lack knowledge in the lab experiment. The lab doesn't have any advanced pieces of equipment. The college has full wifi connectivity. You are allowed to use your laptop for connecting to the internet using wifi(after getting it connect from the office). The college has a beautiful playing ground, one basketball court, volleyball court etc.  

Placements & Internships : The college has a good campus recruitment program. Earlier companies like Microsoft has come for campus recruitment. Now the highest paid offer comes from Goldman Sachs, an investment banking firm. Goldman provides a good package of more than 50k+ if you get the job after the internship. Next to that company like Wipro, Sutherland, Mckinsey etc. comes to campus recruitment.

Fees & Scholarships : The course fee for a year is General-       INR5890.                                             SC/ST/ OEC- INR2025.                                            OBC/KPCR-   INR3350. College, own itself doesn't provide any scholarships other than the top scorer in each semester gets cash prices and endowment. But you can apply for Scholarships provided by Kerala Government and other organizations. Due to high cut-off, only the top students get to the class. So even if you apply for any scholarships you have a great chance of getting selected. College fees is same as the University fees. There's no need for any bank loans as the fee is very low.

Academics & Faculty : Daily class timing is from morning 8:30-4:30.  The last hour is for extracurricular activities, not for academics. In the case of Physics, the Quality of teaching is Mediocre. Although the faculties are well known on the subject, they are not that great when it comes to teaching. They are more focused on completing the syllabus. The classes are regular.  The college will provide a great experience for you. Physics department conducts quizzes, talks, fusion(department festival) etc. These programs provide a superb experience.

Clubs & Associations : The college has many clubs and associations. Well, known clubs are NCC, NSS, AICUF, JESUS YOUTH etc. Every department conducts their own festival. The main college festival is called Heartiest. It happens usually in the month of January. It's a superb event. And happen at night time. Life in college is amazing. Its a must have experience. The Principal is very friendly and supportive. There's no problem of ragging. You have to keep an eye on attendance. Otherwise, you can enjoy the college life.
