Placements and Internships

1

  • I get inspire fellowship and have applied for some internships at Annamalai University.
  • There is no campus job fair held at our university so we don't get good resources of jobs.
  • Alumini is good. Infrastructure is very good but the level of education is not so good. 

College Infrastructure and Hostel Facilities

3.5

  • Hostel college facility is not so good at Annamalai University. A moderate facility is provided with a room available for two students. But the space inside rooms is not enough for two students.
  • Yearly Rs. 55,000 is hostel fee with free wifi facility.
  • But the food available is completely typical south Indian which is a little bit difficult for the out state students to manage with.
  • Out side the hostel PGs are available and even single rooms and apartments are also available.
  • Even a 2bhk flat costs around Rs. 4,000 pm. So It is batter to stay outside the hostel.
  • Food available in college canteen is fairly good in point of view of south Indian food.
  • Food is cheaper and it cost Rs. 20 per meal.
  • Quality of classrooms and infrastructure is very good and excellent but there is a lack of maintenance due to which the paints on the builds is faded and even some rooftops are in a very bad situation.
  • Yearly maintenance is highly demanded here.
  • The college has every thing but everything is old-fashioned and not maintained properly.

Entrance Exams and Admissions

  • The eligibility criteria to join Annamalai University was that the applicant should be a graduate.
  • There was no entrance examination.
  • I applied for the form online then after filling the application was sent to the university along with required documents. After two months the selection list was published and I was intimated to admission via a phone call.
  • The typical cutoff was about 55% for instate students and 70% for outstate.

Academics and Faculty

2.5

  • Class timing is too hectic at Annamalai University. From morning 9 am to 5 pm.
  • We attend classes and there is one hour lunch break.
  • Seminars are held weekly once.
  • The project work is there that is compulsory in the fourth semester.
  • Exams are subjective knowledge oriented and don't emphasize on entrance oriented numeric questions.
  • The quality of teaching is below than average.
  • Some professors are highly qualified but most of the others are not so good to explain the concept.
  • The Tamil language is widely used in lectures though outer state students are also in classes.
  • Overall experience is more than average in all sectors but except in teaching quality.

Fees and Scholarships

2.5

  • Rs. 13,000 per year is the course fee at Annamalai University.
  • The scholarships available to students from the government.
  • 30% of students get a scholarship and based on the ST/ SC quota.
  • No, I don't think that bank loans are needed because course fee is quite affordable.

Clubs and Associations

3

  • There are no such clubs or societies but there is a student union present at Annamalai University.
  • No special festival is celebrated here only some specific government festivals are celebrated. Like science day, the Annual function is also conducted once a year but in very old fashioned manner.
  • The good thing here is that the seminars and workshops conferences are frequently organized in this college by various departments.
  • The overall life is just good. But not that much what we expect from NAAC A university.
