: Like the other three who have reviewed this great institution, I am an ex bitsian too, having just graduated this month ( hold the applause!). But then who better to review a college than someone who's been there for four whole years??!!


Since the admission process has alreday been reviewed, I'd just say that it depends on the 12th std marks and BITS has no entrance examination despite of strong rumors. This is bcoz BITS recently won a case against the government which forced it to have a common entrance examination. It is true that a great percentage of the students are from AP and TN but I think the number of admits from each state is proportional to the number of applications and it is really not because of any quota. Potential-Bitsians please note that! There are no reservations in BITS except a very minute percentage for SC/ST students.


For those who are worried about the place. It is 6 hours from Delhi and from Jaipur and thats how long you need to get to civilization. Pilani is a village and you really wont want to venture out too much, but the lovely campus has everything you could ever want. ( Alcoholics excluded!)


The campus is about 30 acres and houses a beautiful marble temple which is forty years old. The clock tower is a landmark which bitsians always love to celebrate. Besides the old shopping market, c'not, there is a newly opened supermarket cum bookstore too! A sprawling library will be opened by the begginning of this academic year. There are about 10 hostels for the men and a whole hostel complex and another individual hostel for the women.


The is no dress code and you can wear anything to college ( except shorts!!). There is also no attendance which means that you will be allowed to write your exams even if you havent attended a single class.


The professors are mostly good and more importantly they know their stuff. Whats really noteworthy is the system. There are so many flexibilities here that it is simply mind boggling. And evern after you have graduated you simply dont know all what you couldve done! You can pick your own professors, your courses and what timings you want to attend classes. In most cases youll end up having your tue, thur and saturday afternoons off! And in a few semesters I had no classes these particular days of the week!!


When you pass out from there, you arent just a graduate but a complete person who has really learnt a lot. Right from managing your own money and friends and your education, you'll have a great experience in many things and true enuff, the corporate world is really quite happy to grab you. which means that the campus placement is simply one of the best there.


The climate is the only thing which leaves much to be desired. Either it's too hot or you are too cold. But after here you'd be able to survive anywhere in the world! BITS now has cellfone facilities and soon we would have net connections in every hostel room.


The Director is one of the most dignified and amiable persons I've ever met and he suits the role to a T. One of the things all BITSians fondly admire are his short and memorable speeches at every occasion.


There is so much of extra curricular activities that anyone would feel blessed to have landed here. Plays, dances, mimes, name it you'll have it. The cultural fest OASIS is fully managed by the students and is on of the best in the country. The five day fest is non stop and youll find events even in the wee hours of the morning! Not surprising since that's our only connection with the rest of the student world. The academic fest APOGEE and sports fest BOSM are also well awaited and appreciated by the student community.


BITS has a informal record for the most number of intra-bitsian weddings!! So as much as the BITsian men and women wouldnt appreciate the other in public, you can guess what happens!


Personally I feel BITS teaches us more than other colleges do, more by the way of line than by its curriculum. The camous is so unpolluted, you will never see a sky clearer than that anywhere else! People who want a good education and a complete experience can come to BITS.


If you come here, I promise, you wont feel like going back.
