Hostel

VCL has fully-equipped hostels that extend the campus's "round-the-clock" learning environment to resident students. Separate hostels for boys and girls provide a comfortable, homely setting — with nutritious food, 24-hour security, and the freedom to focus on studies.

Hostel life also gives students the chance to live and learn alongside peers from different backgrounds in a harmonious community.

Rooms and amenities#

Every room is well-lit, well-ventilated, and air-cooled in summer. Students are provided with necessary furniture; bathrooms and toilets are attached to each room (shared between rooms). Hot water is supplied through geysers in winter.

The hostel runs on emergency power backup — two standby diesel generators (225 KVA and 30 KVA capacity) provide power during outages.

Health, safety and daily living#

• Emergency Medical Services (First Aid) — every hostel keeps a first-aid kit, and tie-ups with nearby hospitals provide round-the-clock ambulance access. Regular medical check-ups by qualified doctors are scheduled for hostellers.
• ATM — an ATM is located within the campus for student convenience.
• Housekeeping — dedicated housekeeping teams maintain hygiene and cleanliness throughout the hostels.
• Water Supply — Reverse-Osmosis (RO) systems provide bacteria- and germ-free drinking water on a 24 × 7 basis.
• Common Room — each hostel has a common room with daily newspapers, magazines, satellite TV, and indoor games such as carrom and chess.
• Wi-Fi — campus Wi-Fi extends to the hostels, available 24 × 7.
• Sports — hostellers are encouraged to use the basketball, volleyball, badminton, and table-tennis facilities on campus.
• Security — round-the-clock security cover is in place.
