How does a person survive in IIT BHU hostels?

Not many may agree but personally, I feel IIT BHU hostels are great in their own way, limiting the luxurious lifestyle and teaching us to be satisfied with limited resources.

• The reason why the rooms are smaller than the lawns is to ensure students don’t remain holed up in their rooms the whole and explore the campus. Had these hostels been flats with big rooms and no lawns, most of them would have spent their time on their laptops.
• It’s better to live a challenging student life than a luxurious one as it prepares you for future struggles and helps you escape your comfort zone. Trust me you will miss these poorly furnished rooms when you will be living your lives in the hustle and bustle of cities hiked in your apartments.
• The small rooms bring together students and result in better bonds between them. You end up making friends for life.
• You can make up for the poor facilities by eating and sleeping healthily. After all that is the point of getting hostels in the first place, a healthy lifestyle.

You will surely be overwhelmed by the situation of the city in the initial days but end up falling in love with the overall vibe. Just adapt well to your surroundings, and the Induction program will be of great help.
