Rohit J (COOL) • a year ago

I would say - Quality & affordable education... Their Infrastructure is good and I'm very much impressed by their fees structure.. The entrance of the campus consists of their old buildings and Infrastructure just don't get fooled by them ... The back campus hosts brand new Infrastructure and research facilities and many Infrastructures are under construction... The campus is also quiet Green and peaceful. The people are very approachable. Most importantly the hostel and mess fees too seems quite affordable for middle class people... The have many courses in collaboration with reputed Institutions of respective domains... All the best for doing education as a service 👏 👍....

Pradeep Srinivasan • in the last week

Sastra University was not that good enough . When I took admission. Not a great college as compared to other deemed university. They dont groom people. Think twice or thrice before talking admission here. I am a ECE Graduate. I didn't get much support when I was graduated . Our batch faced a lot of problems.

This is one of the deemed to be university in Tamil Nadu. It is situated on the right side of Tiruch Tanjavur main Road. My grand son is now studying in this University.

The place where I learnt about failures and the way to overcome from those failures. Buildings were old when I was a student but now everything is changed new blocks,roads,labs and hostels. Such a good place to spend your UG life with guaranteed job🚀👍. One disadvantage is that convocation won't be held for all the students. If you want to take part in convocation then you shouldn't have history of arrears and cgpa of above 7.5.
