College Knowledege Chatbot

Campus Query is an AI-powered college knowledge chatbot designed to help students quickly find accurate information from institutional documents such as notices, circulars, guidelines, and academic resources.

It provides a single conversational interface for answering campus-related queries by intelligently retrieving information from uploaded documents and generating contextual responses.

🚀 Problem Statement

In most colleges, important information is scattered across:

PDFs and circulars
Notice boards
Department websites
Manual help desks

This leads to:

Repetitive student queries
Delayed responses

At a high level:

Documents are uploaded by admins
