BHU: Balanced Review

6.3Helpful

SPANDAN is the annual fest conducted by BHU as a whole. Different colleges have different fests. Our college for that matter has not yet organised any annual fest. Since B-tech is not available as a course in our college, no tech fests are organised. The main campus has several fests including KASHIYATRA and ELIXIR. conducted in the month of January and December. The central library is one of a kind. The college library may provide hidden gems though. The classrooms have high ceilings as it is an ancient university. The infrastructure is very eco-friendly. It is the biggest attraction point of this university. The campus is almost the size of a small city. Thich walls, high ceilings, gardens, trees and the New Vishwanath Temple all create a good environment. The Digi- boards have also been installed in most classes. And it is being updated. There are many clubs and many activities that keep going on campus. All this is regulated currently through WhatsApp groups.

I am Navneet Singh and here is my opinion and experience in BHU

8Helpful

I love it here because of the lush green campus which is full of life. The infrastructure is good and there are a lot of clubs of several types like drama, music, coding, etc. The clubs are active in their work. The annual fest of science faculty is called AAKANKSHA and it's good. The books are available but if you don't find your book then there is a section in the library in which you can go and read any book and they have all the books you need. Sports facilities are top-notch here, you'll have all you need for any game, even swimming.

BHU buzz!

7.8Helpful

Life at the campus is always buzzing. There is some festival, seminar, or fest going on Almost every day. There is an annual festival and on various festivals like Saraswati Puja ( it also happens to be the foundation day of BHU), Janmashtami there are grand celebrations in which all faculties and hostels take part. In BHU there are several small libraries ( libraries of each hostel, and faculty). There is also a major library Siyajirao Gaikwad Library - it has 2 parts: popularly called 'Central Library' and 'Cyber Library'. This Library has a very vast collection of books, magazines, research papers, etc. For students interested in sports there are numerous sports to choose from like Basketball, football, hockey, cricket, etc. There is also a Mountaineering club, NSS, and NCC (all 3 wings). It also has a large Gym, swimming pool, and dedicated sports grounds for various sports. There are many different clubs run by different faculties and students through which students can discover themselves.

Both the sides of College - Good and Bad

6.7Helpful

Library has a lot of books. I also get book issues a lot of times from the library. But the latest versions of books are not available which is somewhat bad. Social groups are also formed in many courses. That's for social causes almost every time.

Bhu is India's largest residential University. The best part of BHU life is its hostel Life. Bhu provides a hostel for a very very low amount. Hostel rooms contain beds, tables, chairs, an almirah, a fan and high-speed wifi connections. The meal quality is moderate type, sometimes it's very good while sometimes it's not so good. Registration for a hostel is done while applying for cuet entrance exam.

BHU- A critical Analysis.

7.8Helpful

BHU has the largest In campus accommodation facility in the entire ASIA. It has multiple hostels for all faculties. But the oldest among them is Birla and Broca hostel. Mess is functional at hostels. Mess isn't a part of the Hostel. They are run by independent owners commonly called- Mess Maharaj. Food quality is good but like all mess, they too add a lot of oil.

8.2Helpful

All the basic facilities like light, fan, cupboard & you will have a balcony too. Food is top-class, & on occasion, you will get special dishes. I cleared BHU-UET so while filling up the form, I had to select whether I want a hostel or not, but to be honest out of 320 students of various BVoc. For courses, only 6 females got a hostel, and only 2 are from my course. Rented a private hostel in Naria, Varanasi. It is just beside the Doctor's colony of BHU, where doctors of IMS(BHU) stay.

BHU: 4 Answered Questions

View All

What is the hostel fee at BHU including mess charge and everything?

Payal GuptaStudies at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak (2024)

Firstly, the hostel fees at BHU vary from course to course. So all I can do is give you a rough estimate through the information I got from my sister who pursued B.Sc from BHU.

Hostel Fees

1st semester stood: INR 2666
2nd, 4th, 6th, and 8th semester: INR 1290 (regular fee and hostel fee both)
3rd, 5th, and 7th: INR 3190 (regular fee and hostel fee)

Mess Charges:

INR 40 for a simple diet
INR 60 for special
INR 80 for chicken

Usually, there are 2 diets a day and on Sundays, there is only one diet. But the Sunday meal is special so it is counted as a double diet. So the approximate price stands at INR 80-100 per day.

If you skip the meal or go home then you can tell Mess Maharaj and you won’t be charged.

Hows the hostel life at BHU?

Ashok SinhaB.A(hons) Psychology from Banaras Hindu University

BHU offers an enviable hostel life. The hostels are within walking distance from class, library, hospital, playground, gym, and pool. There are 24*7 WiFi facilities available on campus. BHU hostel fees are nominal. Students are required to pay around INR 4500 per year.

Many events and festivals are celebrated in the hostel. What makes the BHU hostel experience more special is the people. You will get to share your experience with people from different social backgrounds. Memories of arranging events together, the adrenaline rush of the night before examination, 2 am walks on the campus, you will get to make many such unforgettable memories.

What are the facilities available in the hostels of BHU?

Adarsh KashyapB.Tech. in Mechanical Engineering Indian Institute of Technology Varanasi (IIT BHU) (Graduated 2018)

BHU is the largest residential university in Asia. Also a national university, BHUs hostel facilities are top notch. The hostels are allotted on the basis of your rank. So if you want a hostel with good facilities, study hard and score good marks.

Some key features of the hostels here are:

Lush green campus
Good quality food
Playground to promote sports
The distance between college and hostel is not much
Less expensive hostels
