Hey Guyz, ask me. I am a student of SIES College. Hard work is what teachers expect from students here. They would be more than happy to know that a student has scored well in their exams and tests. If you know the teachers up, close and personal, they would understand you too.
The canteen is good enough, but has been built underneath the staircase. Maybe you can hide there, if a war breaks out or something (Just Kidding.) This college has come a long way from offering ordinary BA, BCom, BSc Degree Courses to offering Professional Courses like Bachelor of Management, Mass Media, Bachelor of Information Technology, etc. It also offers PhD is Hindi and Environmental Science, but you would have to sit in other colleges in Mumbai for lectures, because fewer professors are available.
The professors give a lot of information and ideas. Students have to do mostly projects, projects and more projects with class tests in professional courses, but there is lesser pressure on students doing regular courses.
It is a good college for the scholars! Many offers and opportunities are offered to students who want to study further or go abroad. There are many activity clubs for those who want to fill up their resume (Extra-curriculars). Every year a guest of honor is invited to distribute prizes. This college has proud winners of awards, prizes and has many young achievers from different fields. A student from our college 11th standard once went to NASA. One should be proud of achievers from a college as this one.
A good library, computer labs are all available with lots of other good facilities. French is offered from 11th to BA level. There are good chances of going abroad after this. The college had won Guiness Awards for the Longest Human Chain in 1997. The college also has good phone facilities, stores, food centers, small shopping malls, medical stores, doctors, etc, if you have any problems. (Sion is after all a good commercial center.) There is also a photocopying shop named "Ratnadeep" exactly opposite the college, where they photocopy notes, laminate marksheets, spiral bind projects, take printsout, jumbo xerox, color xerox, etc. for the convenience of students. Bookstores, where one could purchase textbooks are also in abundance near this college.
The college has an annual festival and of course, it has got other options for displaying talents of students. You are free to display your creativity wherever possible. The college has been recently renovated and painted. Now, the college also offers new courses in IT and computers along with personality development. Recently, SIES College (Sion West) held a grand reunion of alumni and former students. The college has produced many great singers, scientists, executives, managers and many others of top calibre. It is a college, where they prepare you for day-to-day life and not just for examinations. Today, I am where I am because of this college.
