Remarks

My college is the best for this course in the city and amongst top 10 in India.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Course is as per the course of Calcutta University. It's a descriptive detailed course with a lot of knowledge about accounting and finance. It helped me in pursuing CA. It has a research paper in it's 3rd year. A thesis has to be provided on any topic of your choice and a viva is to be given at the end.

Placement Experience

5

Companies like the big four firms, Delloite, Price Waterhouse, Ernest and Young and KPNG come for placement. Other companies include Goldman Sachs, BYJUs etc. In the third year of college a 1.5 month internship is to be done at a place of your own choice. The companies have their own individual placement drives. Almost 65% candidates get placed.

College Events

5

Xavotsav is the annual college fest which takes place every January. Other Management events are there like X-Calibre, X-Genesis etc. Corporate events like Best Manager, Best CEO are organised every year. Xavrang, Xavoullash are some cultural fests organised by the student's council. Xavostav has a crowd above 7000.

Fee Structure And Facilities

St Xavier's College Kolkata provides an expensive fee structure for bcom. The morning session which is only for boys is roughly around Rs.3000/ month but the evening session which is coed is Rs. 6000/month. No additional fees is required at admission. Only security deposit will be taken and that shall be refunded at the end of 3 years.

Fees and Financial Aid

No the college does not provide any scholarship opportunities. The students have to pay the entire college fees.

Campus Life

4

Morning session -100% boys Evening session - 96% girls remaining 4% boys There are 4 computer labs which are huge. The college has it's own playground. Students are diverse here and no nepotism exists based on religion, caste, creed, race or sex. Students are ethical.

Hostel Facilities

4

No I did not opt for hostel. Hostel facilities are only provided to Catholic and Christian students or students who have a strong sports background. Only outstation candidates are provided the same. PGs are available at 3000-4000/ month. Hostel is not located within the college premises. And are on sharing basis.

Alumni/Alumna

Senior students are very helpful. Be it studies or annual events etc. Alumni is also interactive and supportive.

Admission

I wanted to pursue the course of Chartered Accountancy. Hence I had to do Bcom compulsorily. But I had 93.5% in the best of 4 subjects in my ISC examinations. I got St. Xavier's College Kolkata Bcom honours 3rd list. College starts from 2nd July every year. Orientation programme is on 1st July.

Faculty

4.5

There are around 25 teachers for commerce. And their average age is around 30-40. They are highly qualified and Doctorates in their respective subjects. Some teachers have industry background also but mostly they have academic background. They attend individual queries of the students too. It's an excellent faculty.

Placement Experience:

Placements were not there earlier. But our batch was the first one to get placement at St Joseph's College Darjeeling. To be honest It is not a college you should target if you are looking for placement. The companies were too small . The roles are way to entry level . Highest placement was around 40000 per month but it was an inside sales role so many opt out. There is not official data about placement . My plan was to look for off campus jobs.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I choose the course the b.com because I want to become the CA but after completing the graduation my family condition was not very good so I quit my studies and searching for the job. My dream was after B.com then I complete M.com then CA but I couldn't do that. I'm pursuing because I'm interested in understanding how businesses work and want a solid foundation in commerce and finance. It opens up various career paths in accounting, finance, management, and more. Plus, it's a versatile degree that can lead to professional certifications like CA, CS, or MBA.
