Shantanu Tomar| Batch of 2016

Senior Consultant at Deloitte | AIR 1 – FTRE Scholar

Looking back, I don't think the school was trying to produce students with perfect report cards. It was trying to nurture people who never stopped learning, and that has stayed with me long after I left.

Parikshit Tomar | Batch of 2018

General Manager at Aditya Birla Group | IIT Kanpur | IIM Bangalore

Gurukul gave me a whole gamut of activities to try and explore. The sheer range of skills from debating, elocution, theatre, poetry writing, academics, film making and many more made me a much more well rounded individual rather than pigeonholing me into a specific niche.

Gargi Sahu | Batch of 2021

Software Engineer at a Leading US Hedge Fund | IIT (BHU)

I will definitely attribute my success , achievements and the individual I have become to my years at gurukul. Gurukul has a way to produce the top 1% not by teaching you but by building you.

Anirudh Damani | Batch of 2021

MBA Student at ISB Hyderabad | Former President, Literary Society of SRCC | Former Bain Intern

My fondest memory of Gurukul is when I received my first scholarship here and my grandparents had been there to share my joy on Appreciation day. The way they were grinning ear to ear just melted my heart. Gurukul really made me feel so special for every milestone I had.

Pragya Parmita | Batch of 2021

Primary Political Research Analyst at Design Boxed Innovations | Ramjas College | TISS Mumbai

What Gurukul gave me was far greater than academic learning. It gave me confidence before I knew I needed it, a voice before I knew how important it would become, and a community that made me feel seen. Even today, as life takes me from one city to another, I carry those lessons, those people, and that feeling of belonging with me.

Ujjwal Singhal | Batch of 2018

PGP Student at IIM Lucknow | Former Software Development Engineer at Jio Platforms

Gurukul provided me with a strong academic foundation, encouraged me to dream big while instilling the values of discipline, perseverance, and integrity. These values have guided me through every stage of my academic and professional journey.
