I have been a proud student of Chandigarh University. Although the majority of community college students enter with aspirations of earning a college degree, completion rates are dismal as far as I experienced. Still the one thing which always keeps you growing and evolving your true self is "experience" which luckily I had a lot and I'm thankful to my amazing faculty and my friends who has been my healthy competitors to make me explore more.
