Hope this gives you an idea of what to expect at Thapar University.
Thapar University offers admission based on the JEE Main cut-offs or merit basis. So, the quality of students is usually high.
The fee is a concern for students of Thapar as it has increased drastically to the level at par with BITS Pilani and others. But being a private institute, it does not get funding from the Government. So, the institute had no choice but to escalate its fee for up-gradation.
The raised fee and seats had justified reactions from the students. There is a slight quality drop in the education, but it is not extreme to tarnish the institute's image. Such decline in quality is ordinary in the top institutes as well. common
Overall, the institute has a decent bunch of students.
A few of my friends graduated from both these institutes mentioned above and here are some things they shared about them.
Though a lot of people have always discouraged the ones taking admission to the Derabassi campus. They feel the Patiala campus of Thapar University is far better.
