Sikkim Manipal University - [SMU], East Sikkim - Affiliated Colleges

No, the administration is not particularly the best at Sikkim Manipal University. I know a few people from the institute and here is what they had to say about the institute. 

• There is a huge locational disadvantage of the university, given the constant issues faced by students. Recently, they have installed an ATM machine.
• The mess of the institute is not in its best condition. It is run by local people. They do not especially get concerned about the complaints students usually submit. The quality of food is not good even though they take exorbitant amounts of money for the food.
• The administration doesn’t take the necessary steps to resolve the issues raised by students.
• According to one of my friends from the CSE department they were not allowed to take industrial training from other companies.
• The professors are not gonna invest much of their time in your project. However, your project may get rejected for silly mistakes.
• Recently, in terms of placement, TCS rejected SMIT, while Amazon only hired students as their interns. The placement scenario is not good. 

This is everything that you should be aware of before enlisting at Sikkim Manipal University. 

Yes, you can migrate to Canada or any other country even if you have any degree from SMU. The sole criteria for this is not a degree and you must fulfill other eligibility as well.  

The Comprehensive Ranking System for Canadian immigration is not based on whether you have a regular degree or a distance degree, given that the university must be recognized.

SMU is duly recognized by UGC for ODL programs. You can easily apply to Canada. Go for the ECA process at ICAS as they evaluate the application process at SMU. The management authorities are very supportive and they will help you in getting the transcripts.

Both Sikkim Manipal and Manipal University Jaipur are very popular institutes and a lot of students across the country apply for admissions in these institutes. But among these two, choosing Manipal University Jaipur will be a better option especially if you're from North or Central India. 

• Manipal University Jaipur is located in the prime city.
• They have an excellent faculty, hard-working and cooperative.
• It has a very competitive environment, which encourages students to do better.
• The infrastructure is also good, with a study appropriate ambiance.
• The labs are well equipped and well maintained.
• Being located in the heart of the city, it enjoys industrial exposure.
• Many companies participate in their placement program, as it is a preferred location.
• Placements are sometimes good and sometimes average. Mostly depends on the batch and their overall academic performance.

Hence, choosing Manipal University Jaipur will be a better option as the campus life offered is much better and there is no chaos or fights among the students like Sikkim Manipal. 

Manipal University which is based out in Karnataka is the parent organization of Sikkim Manipal University. Manipal University (MU) is well ahead of Sikkim Manipal University (SMU) in terms of placement quality, infrastructure, faculty, and other factors. 

Many people, on the other hand, believe that Sikkim Manipal is the parent organization of Manipal University in Karnataka. Some people have never heard of the Manipal University of Karnataka, but thanks to aggressive marketing, everyone has heard of SMU.

A degree from SMU is worth only half as much as a degree from Manipal University in Karnataka. However, I know some folks who attended SMU and are doing rather well, owing to their abilities rather than the college they chose.

In general, SMU is not a great option for your studies. The remote learning or online MBA program, which is promoted and marketed significantly on television, is not nearly as beneficial as it appears. The quality of students who have pursued an MBA program is not up to par, as they lack a degree of confidence and intelligence. So, if you have other possibilities, I would advise you to not choose SMU as it would not prove to be a wise career choice for you.
