How is the hostel facility at VNIT Nagpur?

As a resident of Boys hostel at VNIT Nagpur, I can shed some light on the facilities available for us-

As a fresher, one has to live with three other people. Mostly, though not always, one gets a room with those who complete the registration at the same time as us. One gets a cupboard, table and bed for oneself. The rooms are three seaters, but due to lack of accommodation, four students share a single room. The rooms are non AC. The mess food is bearable, though everyone dislikes it. The freshers have an in-time of 8 pm. The rooms are crammed, but one starts to enjoy the hostel life after a while. As a fresher, one has to abide by the rules set by senior students. 

The second years get a different hostel. A single room is shared by three students, but the living conditions are pretty much the same as before. But one gets to choose one’s roommates. After the first year, boys don’t have to follow any in-time. 

In the third year, one gets a room for oneself, or a double sharing room. The rooms have a small balcony. The hostel for third years is much better and cleaner, and the rooms are better as well. 

Thus, VNIT Nagpur offers decent hostel facilities for its students.

Assuming you are a fresher at VNIT Nagpur, I will describe hostel facilities for first year students-

• First year boys’ hostels- 

There are three hostel blocks for first year boys- 8, 9 and 8/9 (extension). The hostel rooms are four-seater. In every room, there is a study table, chair, bed and cupboard for each student. Personal furniture is not allowed. Vehicles and electrical appliances (iron, hotplate, induction cooker, refrigerator, etc.) are strictly prohibited, but cooler is allowed during summer time. Friends, parents or relatives of students are not allowed in hostel rooms. Mattress, bedsheets, bucket, mug, and other personal use items are bought by the students. 

Each floor has washrooms, and mess is inside the hostel blocks. One warden is allotted for each of the blocks. The in-time is 8pm for boys. A night canteen operates from 11 pm to 3 am. The LAN port generally starts working after the 1st semester. There are no wifi facilities for freshers.

• First year girls’ hostel-

Fresher girls are allotted VNIT Girls’ hostel Block 6. The facilities are similar for fresher girls. 

You’ll thoroughly enjoy your stay at VNIT Nagpur. Hostel life offers plenty of friendships and lifelong memories.
