Hello,
Many of us have these confusions to choose between Government and private colleges ,So here I have posted some of the important parameters to keep in mind while deciding between government colleges and private colleges
FUNDING:
Government colleges are funded by the state government, private colleges do not receive any funds from state government and rely mostly on tuition fee collected from students and other private contributions.
TUITION FEE:
Government colleges fee to be charged from a student is decided after keeping in mind the various quotas, incentives and reservations for different sectors of the society. Most of the operating cost for these colleges is paid by the government.
In a private college, the amount a student has to pay as tuition fee in a year is decided by the upper management of the institution. Also, the college’s operating cost solely depends on the tuition fee and donations, thus the tuition fee charged from the students is also very high as compared to that of state colleges.
INFRASTRUCTURE:
Government colleges usually lag behind with ill-equipped labs and lack of modern technology, quality of education provided to a student is hampered.
Private colleges are usually equipped with up to date and good quality infrastructure, smart classrooms and projectors etc which they proudly boast about in their shiny brochures.
QUALITY OF TEACHING:
Selection criteria for faculty in a government college is generally very tough, only highly qualified teachers are selected and appointed. Though other problems faced by students studying in government colleges are that the faculty is not adequately staffed and well directed.
Private colleges, have more qualified faculty with industry experience and more sophisticated studying method. Also, the projectors and smart classrooms add to the quality of teaching.
PLACEMENTS:
Goodwill created by the government colleges is very good and are better recognized by employers than small private colleges.More and more companies visit government colleges for placements and students are selected in some of the top companies at better salaries
Except the top renowned private colleges, placements offered to students are usually of satisfactory packages and not many companies visit the campuses of private colleges.
The alumni network created by any college plays a very important role in the increase or decrease of good will of a college. It is advisable to analyze and study the past placement records of the college before enrolling in it
