Residential Life

Student Services

Being a residential institution, Modernage realizes that to provide an environment for the natural growth of social, academic and moral values of students, especially the boarders, is the responsibility of the college. Besides the faculty members, there are specially trained people who look into this sphere of child development. They provide individual attention to each student’s problems. The College has a full time Welfare Officer, whose job is to help students in matters not directly related to their studies or accommodation, e.g. travel arrangements, opening bank accounts, medical appointments, etc.

The residential house experience at Modernage is both inspiring and exciting. The students learn how to share and co-operate with others. They learn to be more responsible and active. Modernage has three comfortable and spacious residential houses that provide shared lodging to the residential students and staff. A House Master/Mistress is an in charge of the entire house. These people along with their staff assist the students in the execution of their daily routines. The rooms are serviced daily. Facilities for washing and ironing are provided regularly.
