Remarks :
There were no eligibility criteria. I found the application form on the official website of Assam Don Bosco University where I had to select the course I wanted to apply for and after filling up the form I was charged rupees 1000. There are three ADBU campuses. And according to the availability of the courses on each campus, they conduct personal interviews. The interview was short and simple and the questions they asked were basically about the particular courses we are applying for. There are scholarships as well for students who belong to other backward classes and have no source of income at home. I don't think there should be any improvement regarding the admission process as I didn't face any problems during the interview and the admission.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I have always been interested in the field of writing. And choosing the line between mass media and journalism was a way for me to polish my writing skills by exploring various aspects of media and communication. It was interesting as I had creative writing as one of my main subjects and I was also taught writing news for print media. And from my personal experience Choosing ADBU was the best decision of my life even tho the fee was really hight but I got to learn a lot from the faculty members. They were very frank and the method of teaching was also unique. We had 2 unit tests each semester and the papers were also easy and interesting.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fee for the entire course was around 3 lacs rupees excluding the hostel charges. There were scholarships for the students who belong to other backward classes and has no monthly income at home. The topper of each semester also got paid a rupees 20 thousand. But sadly, the university didn't provide placement services even though it was mentioned at the time of admission that they will provide placements.
Campus Life :
When it comes to the social life on the ADBU campus I would say it was more like heaven on earth. The campus was rich in nature with a beautiful lake side view and white picket fences near the shore. The people on campus were very fashionable and welcoming. It will give anyone the feeling of living somewhere in a foreign country. We used to have different fests from soul's day to liberal arts. Where the students got numerous opportunities to explore their own talents by singing, reciting poems or performing any form of art. ADBU is a beautiful place to learn and it is perfect for anyone who is fond of art and loves to write or create Art. There were different clubs as well for example music, dance, art & craft etc.
Hostel Facilities :
Hostel facilities were amazing and the cost was also affordable. Even though there was no food facilities in the hostels we had 4 canteens inside the campus which were cheap and the food was also tasty. Hostel wardens were very caring and sincere and in case of any medical emergency they were always there. We had study rooms in each hostel which was probably the best place to study during exams as the view of the hillside with tea plants from the window made the study hall a cool place to start my lessons with utmost dedication. As a Nature lover's perspective it really helped me concentrate more.
