Anonymous 67800's Review on Amity University, Noida

Placements depend upon what you do and learn in the 4 years of college. Maintain a CGPA above 7.0 and you are safe. Also, choose your clubs and committees wisely (I suggest Placement committee). Be in the good books of your professors. At last, it all depends upon your hard work and knowledge. A person with 8 or 9 pointer CGPA, may not get placed at a higher package, but a 7.5 pointer may get placed at a relatively higher package, because the recruiter wants a knowledgeable and efficient employee and not a crammer. Average packages are 3-5 Lakhs PA, however, any student with a master degree gets 5-7 Lakhs PA on an average. The Placement Cell is working hard to bring more companies offering better packages every year. The Alumni network, I think I don't need to stress much. It's really good. Every year, there is an Alumni meeting.

Infrastructure is awesome. Don't believe me? Go and checkout yourself. Amity Institute of Biotechnology, block J3, Amity university campus, Noida. The library is really, really awesome. AmityWiFi is decent. Honestly speaking, I am a day scholar, so I don't have much idea of the hostels. There are separate hostels for boys and girls and AC and Non AC hostels. The food is okay according to most people, but it is very healthy and light according to me. Mama Mia, Dominoes, Subway, Cafe Coffee Day, Olympia, cafeteria, Dosa plaza.. every taste is there to relax your taste buds. Basic lunch and dinner are not very tasty as already mentioned but are okay. 35 per meal, consisting of Dal, sabzi, 4 chapatis and rice. PGs are not recommended because the good boys become spoilt brats there.

Anyone having a percentage in 12th above 75% (PCB) can apply for the course. However, those with 92% (PCB) or more are awarded scholarships. You have to apply for the AmityJEE, and choose PCB. The chances of admission are higher during initial periods, because once the seats get filled up, the admissions are closed.

The daily routine is really hectic, exception being Thursdays. Like, I don't get any free slot on Fridays and have to study continuously from 10:15AM to 5:15 PM. Now, that is really, really hectic. Presentations, projects, assignments add to the load. But, I manage them somehow, and also learn management techniques. I submit all my work on time, maintaining an attendance of above 90% in most of he subjects. Yes, attendance is a big issue. Attendance below 75% will get you debarred in that particular subject. Most of the faculties have good knowledge of their subjects, it's just that, you have to set yourself different from others in a positive manner. Some irritating faculties can be avoided. Projectors are also installed in every lecture hall (classrooms).Air-conditioned campus and classrooms. Overall, if you think that at Amity, you'll have fun and your life would be like The actors or actresses of Karan Johar's Student of the Year, you will surely curse yourself. Just like other colleges, you have to work your ass off, to reach somewhere.

This is where the whole problem arises. The fee is really high for a middle class family boy. But, if you have an aim, and you are ready to work day an night to reach that goal, then there's no problem. I am saying this because, any college of Amity's repute, has somewhat similar fee pattern. My parents took a loan from Allahabad Bank. They have a branch in the campus itself. I am working hard to make my mark and stand out from the crowd. The fees is approximately 1.20 Lakhs per semester, i.e. 2.40 Lakhs per year.

Student societies are numerous. I am in the Placement committee. There are Logistics, Hospitality committee, Tech committee to name some. I am in Biosciences club, and there are environment club, tech club etc. Join the one which suits most of your goals and your nature. There are events that take place every Thursday after 2:00PM. However, the major events are, in which I suggest you to participate in, Sangathan, Convocation, Conferences, ICEL and of course, the Amity Youth Fest.
