The Uni staff is very cooperative? I was able to receive all my accommodation essentials even before arriving at the Uni for the first time. I?ve always been a book warm hence, have always loved books. Along with the books, I like the teaching mechanism.
My father is CA and I was pushed to study Accounting and Finance. My perception was that it would be too boring, apparently, the way the professors teach is just amazing. You would never feel sleepy, and rather, its all fun. The professors and faculty staff were very good and helpful.
