NIRF Rank Context
The college is ranked #74 in NIRF's Commerce & Management category. There is no separate NIRF ranking for its Science stream yet, so don't mix up the two baskets.
The verdict
Worth considering
Pick this if you want a super affordable, NAAC 'A' accredited BSc Physics in Kerala with hostel and scholarship options. It's ideal for students eyeing government exams, higher studies (MSc/PhD), or entry-level IT roles. However, private-sector placement stats are modest (45% placed, ~₹2.5L average), and the overall data confidence is medium. Skip if you're chasing immediate high-salary corporate placements or big-city campus life.
