Remarks :
The college is surrounded by greenery where students can sit with the nature and discuss things with fresh mind. The professors here are very friendly and helpful. However, The infrastructure of the college is too bad. The chairs and table are very old and not proper. The ceilings are very up high so the fans don't work properly either. The admission process in my college is very easy. You simple fill out the application form on their web portal filling in all the required details. Then you wait for the college to release merit lists. If your name appears in any of the lists you are called to the college for documents verification and admission purposes. The cut-off in my college is 80% for General, 75% for OBC, 70% for SC and 65% for ST.
Course Curriculum Overview :
First of all the Bachelor's of Commerce course is by far one of the most common courses in India. Also this course offers a whole overview of all the aspects of Commerce and related areas. I chose this course in this college due to the new policy of conducting exam twice every semester every year. This way not only the students will be engaged in the course but also they will score great marks. The course surely prepares you for the real world applications. The faculties also teach using real life examples and how you can implement theory in practical life. Even though the curriculum provides of real life applications, it should increase its scope and not restrict itself to the theoretical knowledge. The exams are conducted twice every year. There are internals or half yearly exams conducted by the college and externals or university exams conducted by the university, each conducted twice a year. The difficulty level is moderate of these exams.
Internships Opportunities :
The college has hired a company recently that looks after all the internship and hiring opportunities for the students. The company name is Poornatah and is well established in digital marketing area. They provide internships in various areas and offer stipends of 10-15k per month. Other than that, the college does not provide any internships of their own or any other company.
Placement Experience :
The college as such does not provide any campus placement opportunities for B.Com. course. My plans after completing this course is to purse MBA from a reputed college outside Agra. Hence, this degree will help me with my future plans.

Hostel Facilities :
I have not opted for the hostel, however, I know many friends who have. They tell that the hostel facilities are not fine in college. The food and room facilities are also bad. The food menu is also not liked by the students living in hostel and many times they have asked to change it but the people there don't bother. Students can also take a room on rent or a pg. The area near college has many PGs and rooms available for rent.

Awesome Campus, Hands-on Experience, Supportive Professors.
