Urgent need of a experienced senior
Hey everyone, I really need some genuine advice from seniors or anyone experienced.
I first gave the entrance for Christ University and got selected for the Delhi NCR campus (my first preference because it’s close to Punjab). Later I found out Bangalore campus is considered the best, so I applied again and now I’m waitlisted.
The main confusion is between Christ University and Chandigarh University for BCA.
My family’s financial condition is not very strong right now because of some family issues, so in both cases I’ll probably need a student loan. Christ is more expensive, though.
My long-term goal is MCA from a government college like an NIT/IIIT, so placements after BCA are not my main priority. I know Christ may help more with internships, exposure, discipline, and networking, but I also hear it’s very strict and college life becomes stressful.
Another thing is that I also want to explore acting in the future, so I’m scared of having a huge loan burden on my head later.
So I want honest advice:
Is Christ really worth taking a bigger loan for?
Or should I choose Chandigarh University and focus on skills + MCA prep?
Does the college name matter that much if MCA is my final target?
Please guide me like an elder brother/sister. I’m genuinely very confused right now.
