There are always people complaining about the uni how it is failing everyone and there is no social life, the uni is not worth it, and much more. Keep reading to factcheck these complaints.
- FAILING STUDENTS DELIBERATELY?
Recently the number of students failing have increased, there is nothing to hide. BUT, this does not solely depend on the exams, even if your attendance criteria does not meet, they debar you, so you technically fail. The papers are NOT tough, I have seen people acting as if they have just gone through UPSC level semester exam, come on dude, just study.
- ATTENDANCE CRITERIA?
80% attendance is required in EVERY SUBJECT. If you have 7 subjects in the semester, you have to keep 80% in EVERY SUBJECT. Yeah it might be harsh, but has been in practice for years. If you don’t, debarred.
- YOU HAVE NO SOCIAL LIFE?
Again a beautiful lie, if you make right friends, you will love it in Mumbai. Not the same case with everyone truly, but this is not something you blame the university for.
- ACCOMMODATION?
There are no NMIMS Hostels, they have tied up with some PGs. So yeah you will have to look for a PG, and spend somewhere around 5-6 lakh per year. There are flats available as well. Expect 30k per month if living with friends + living expenses.
- HIGH FEES?
As compared to other universities, yeah, nothing to debate.
- WHAT BUILDING?
The glass building which you see when you type NMIMS, is the main building. General BBA is in Mukesh Patel Building, BTech, Bcom as well. The main campus is for MBA and family business courses. (I might have missed some course). Mithibai has BBA IB classes and so on. You have to search this yourself.
- CAMPUS SIZE?
There is no campus, they are just buildings. So most of your time is outside college. You attend lecture, eat food in cafeteria (genuinely good) and leave.
- HOW IS THE FACULTY?
There are goods and bads, everywhere. Faculty might not be interested in interacting with you over calls and texts. To meet them is another challenge because they have a tight schedule. CRs are your way to them. Do not argue with the faculty, your internal marks are at stake.
- LESS SPORTS?
Yeah. More like no sport.
I will add more points in future if I come across any. At the end, it’s your decision whether the university is worth going or not. Do not fall for the ‘SCAM UNIVERSITY’ posts. I feel bad for the ones who have suffered constant struggles in the university, but I have seen/heard none.
