A college can look perfect on paper, but only those who studied there know the real story. Edusanjal's College Review feature brings together honest experiences from students, parents, and alumni to help students make truly informed decisions.
This step-by-step guide explains how to review a college on Edusanjal.
Step 1: Find the College You Want to Review
Start by visiting the College Directory on Edusanjal:
https://edusanjal.com/college/
Use the search bar to find the college you wish to review. You can search by college name, location, or browse through the available listings.
Once you find the college, click on its profile page. Every college running in Nepal has a dedicated profile on Edusanjal containing information such as programs, salient features, admission guidelines, and scholarship information.
On the college profile page, click on the "Write a Review" button to begin the review process.
Step 2: Sign In/Sign Up to Your Account
Before reviewing a college, you need to sign in to your account. Logging in helps ensure that reviews are submitted by genuine users and contributes to maintaining the credibility of the platform.
If you already have an account, simply sign in. New users can create an account in a few minutes by signing up and then proceed to review colleges on the platform.
Step 3: Start Reviewing
There are 4 steps to review the colleges listed in Edusanjal.
Step 3a: Choose Your Connection to the College
In the first step, select how you are connected to the college, whether you are a current student, alumni, parent, or a faculty member, and continue to the next step.
Step 3b: Rate the Categories
You will see different categories to rate your experience. For each category, you can rate using a 5-star rating system:
- ⭐ 1 Star – Terrible
- ⭐⭐ 2 Stars – Poor
- ⭐⭐⭐ 3 Stars – Average
- ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4 Stars – Good
- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Stars – Excellent
If a category does not apply to you, you can select "Not Applicable."
Categories to Rate:
- Academics – Rate the quality of programs and curriculum, teaching effectiveness, relevance to career and industry needs, research opportunities, and overall academic resources available at the college.
- Faculty – Evaluate the qualifications and experience of professors, teaching quality, accessibility, mentorship opportunities, and the student-faculty ratio.
- Facilities & Resources – Review classrooms, laboratories, IT infrastructure, libraries, hostels, sports and recreation facilities, and transportation and food services.
- Campus Life & Activities – Share your experience regarding clubs, societies, sports, cultural events, student organizations, and overall student engagement and social life on campus.
- Career Services & Employability – Assess internship opportunities, job placement support, alumni network and outcomes, career counseling services, and overall graduate employability and return on investment.
- Value for Money – Rate the affordability of fees, availability of scholarships and financial aid, and the overall cost versus quality and perceived return on investment.
- Campus Culture & Diversity – Share your experience regarding inclusiveness, sense of community, diversity across gender, background, and region, equity support, and student and parent engagement.
- Administration, Safety & Student Support – Rate the college's leadership quality, communication, responsiveness of management, transparency, physical and emotional safety, health and mental health services, welfare policies, and overall student support systems.
Step 3c: Rate Your Overall Experience
After rating each category, you will be directed to a separate page to rate your Overall Experience. This is your global rating of the college as a whole, not just one aspect, but everything combined.
Think of it this way: even if certain areas like facilities or campus life were average, the college may have excelled in academics and career support, making your overall experience genuinely positive. On the other hand, if one critical area significantly impacted your time there, your overall rating should reflect that honestly.
Avoid simply averaging your category scores in your head and clicking accordingly. Instead, ask yourself: "Overall, would I recommend this college to a prospective student?", and let that guide your global rating. An honest overall rating is often the first thing readers notice, so make it count.
Step 3d: Write Your Feedback
After rating your overall experience, click on 'Continue' to provide your written feedback.
To ensure reviews are meaningful and authentic, your written feedback must be at least 100 characters long. When writing your review, try to provide a balanced perspective by highlighting both the strengths and areas for improvement based on your experience. Constructive feedback is especially valuable, so consider mentioning what changes or enhancements you would like to see in the future.
Be as specific as possible and avoid vague statements. For example, instead of simply saying "The college is good," explain what makes it good, such as "The faculty is highly qualified and always accessible for guidance outside class hours." Similarly, instead of writing "The college is bad," be specific about what needs improvement, such as "The career counseling center lacks industry connections, and placement support for graduates is minimal." Other examples of helpful, specific feedback include:
- "The hostel facilities are overcrowded and need better maintenance."
- "The college organizes excellent industry visits and internship programs that are genuinely helpful for career growth."
- "Scholarship information is not communicated clearly to students who need financial support."
Detailed and thoughtful reviews help prospective students and parents gain a clearer understanding of the college's overall environment and quality.
Step 4: Submit Your Review
Once you have completed the ratings and written your feedback, click the 'Submit' button.
Your review will be sent for verification and moderation before appearing publicly on the platform. This helps maintain the quality and reliability of information shared by the community.
