Admission:

I feel too much comfortable with their admission process. Their managers are well educated and we'll skilled to solve students admission issues. I love this place, everything was good, from education to teachers. I have gained knowledge and made some incredible friends. This place gave me lifelong experiences and memories. Lab facility, staff, environment everything is great. Not even that much expensive compared to other private universities. But one thing is very poor here that is Placement cell, university tells in their campaign that they provide placement but hardly 2 or 3 companies come here.
