Remarks :
For the most part it is definitely worth it to join IITG. From good placement records to being the most beautiful campus in India there's something for everyone here. Accessibility sometimes cause issue but other than that, it holds up the hype it got.
Course Curriculum Overview :
Our course is more inclusive than any other design course in country since we have few engineering subjects as well. Exams are usually chill but assignment submission(Which carries more weightage than exams) are pretty hectic.
Placement Experience :
Placements have been great so far and internships stipend are increasing exponential. Average placement hovers around 20LPA. For stipend, 2018's highest from IITG was from design with 1 Lac per Month for 2 months same company took students this year for 2 lac per month.
College Events :
Ishanaya - Design fest, Techniche - Techno-Management fest, Alcheringa - Cultural Fest, Research Conclave, TedXIITG, Spic Macay, etc. There are way too many department based events held each year to mention and most of these can be found on Wikipedia.
Fee Structure And Facilities :
When compared to other Instituitions, it is very feasible. As a student with low income background, I do get scholarship which is basically 66% waiver for academic fees. Also there are programs which provides interest free loan to students who cannot pay at the moment.

Campus Life :
We have plenty of space in campus and hence number of sports ground are very high. Computer lab are well maintained and you use one of the few super computer in India if you research needs one. Gym and indoor games equipments are not well maintained and hence are not recommended if you don't know what you are doing.
Hostel Facilities :
Room are pretty big and mess food is better than what you'd expect from hostel. But washrooms aren't great. Each hostel got it's own gym, music room, canteen, juice center, mess and Library. Some even have common room for students to chill.
Alumni/Alumna :
We have pretty strong alumni network with clubs like SAIL keeping people in touch. We have multiple official fb groups and outlook network is also solid making it very easy to get in touch with alumni.
Admission :
You appear for exam called UCEED(Undergraduate cumulative entrance exam for design) which takes place around January. Wait for you rank for a month or two. Fill the preference sheet and then wait for allotment list. Addmission starts in August
Faculty :
Faculty are pretty good. We have many of the best design faculties in India including Utpal Baruah and Uday Kumar. There are faculty with vivid background hence for all aspects of design, we have atleast one exceptional professor to tale guidance from.
