CollegeDunia, India’s largest College Search and Review portal has launched Revicon, the first ever online College Review Competition for students. As the name suggests, Revicon, invites students to divulge their opinion on the institute they received education from, or are currently a student of. The team of reviewers stand a chance to win International trips to Amsterdam and Dubai, along with cash prizes worth INR 5 Lakhs.

Revicon, India’s largest Review Competition is a platform for students to raise their voice in support or against the working of their college. They can share what inspired them, or something they would like to change about their alma-mater. The reviews will help the authorities re-evaluate their institutions, and will assist the aspirants in choosing the right college. Also, it is a great platform to bond with fellow students as the competition requires forming teams and winning prizes that will be shared.

Revicon comprises the following steps:

    Formulation of a Team with a unique team name
    Writing and bringing in reviews
    Prizes for everyone – International Trips along with Cash Prizes

Teams can constitute of anywhere between one to four verified members. The members of a team can be from different Institutions, and are open to bring in reviews of any college they like. More the number of reviews written under a Team Name, more are their chances of winning.

Revicon commenced in the start of September and will continue till the mid of October, 2017. Teams registered in this duration only will be a part of the competition.

“We have always aimed for excellence. With the past trends, we have observed that majority students looking for college admissions search for genuine reviews about the college they are planning to get into. And as one of the largest education portals in the market, we play a major role in providing these reviews to the students. Revicon has been launched with the aim of increasing the review count on the portal,” says Mr. Sahil Chalana, Founder of CollegeDunia.

Mr. Nishit Kumar, product head at CollegeDunia informs, “Along with the increasing number of reviews, we had to make sure that they are genuine and of utmost quality. This is why, a concept of Review Quality Score has been introduced in the competition. This allows approval of only those reviews that surpass the minimum standards laid down by the past data.”

CollegeDunia has witnessed exponential growth in terms of users, which has made it one of the most trusted brands that people seeking educational information can refer to. It is CollegeDunia’s interactive design which allows users to browse through the topic of their choice without getting much bothered. The users can fill in Organic Reviews as well, which helps in generating an actual purview of the college in consideration.
 
CollegeDunia currently holds a database of more than 25,000 colleges and 6,000 courses. Not only this, it has more than 1,00,000 published reviews on Colleges, averaging up to 5 reviews per college, with a few of them having as many as 500 reviews.
 
As evident, college reviews are something that present the actual front of a college to the students. We at CollegeDunia want to make sure that students make a calculated decision when it comes down to selection of colleges. With this intention, CollegeDunia is promoting Revicon to students to bring in reviews.
 
Revicon is planned to be held annually, with the number of participants expected to increase with every passing year. Prizes and cash rewards will also increase exponentially. In the long run, Revicon is aimed at reaching a wider audience, preferably on an international platform.
