The Verdict
There can be no doubt that ICFAI is a remarkable educational establishment. Several ICFAI reviews speak highly of the faculty and the intensive, career boosting programmes but no matter how highly ranked the institute may be, it remains important to keep a look out for recurring problems that have arisen in the past, such as difficulty with reaching exam centers. Once you have a complete, impartial assessment of the university, only then should you make the choice to enroll.
