I had a wonderful time at Valvan College. The faculty members are very knowledgeable and supportive. The infrastructure is well-maintained, with spacious classrooms and a well-stocked library.

The college has a nice atmosphere and friendly teachers, but the industry exposure is limited. More guest lectures and internships should be provided to students.

The faculty is experienced, the library has good resources, and the canteen food is decent. The best part is the student community—lots of clubs and activities to participate in!
