We paid 3lakhs/ year just to prepare, make presentation ourselves & present in class. And faculties take all the money.

Admission
1. I applied to this college because it's near to my home plus it was the best institution around my place 2. No i didn't get rejection from other colleges because i only applied to MCHP, Manipal 3. Eligibility criteria - min 70% & above in PU subjects, we have an online entrance exam for master's degree, online interview - through Ms. Teams 4. For UG there are entrance exams too
Faculty
1. The faculty to students ratio is 1:2 & the faculties are very approachable except the politics in our faculty department. 2. Best faculties from Optometry department- Ms. Radhika, Ms. Shefali, Dr. Krithica.S, Ms. Judy , Mr. Premjit bhankad Ms. Preethi - they all teach so well & inspire us. 4. There's 1 faculty who does so much politics whom no one likes. I don't wanna take their name because they are soo good at teaching but they bully students thinking it's a joke but they don't know how much it affects on a student's mental health . 5. Exams are fine. You just gotta study hard & they will pass everyone ( cuz you pay that much fees per year to faculties lol )
