ST Xavier's Kolkata, Bachelor of Commerce (Honours)

Remarks

I applied for quite a few colleges like DU, Symbiosis, BHU. I didn't get into Symbiosis because Xavier's and DU were always on my preference list . Xavier's cut off list came out way too early than DU. I cleared the first cut off which was 95.5% by 0.5 % and thus got into it. DU North Campus Colleges has always been on my wish list and I even made into two of them but by the time DU's cut off were released ,I was already half way to completing my first semester so I decided to continue in Xavier itself. Every year Xavier releases only two cut off list .In 2020 the highest cut off was 95.5 % and it closed on 94.5%.One needs to have maths as their compulsory subject in order to be eliglible for pursuing B.com. Also it considers best four subjects, in which English is a compulsory subject, in order to calculate one's percentage.Also the admission process is entirely merit-based.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

Accounting has always been my centre of interest and thus, Bcom. was certainly the best course to pursue. The faculty in Xavier's is far more than extraordinary. Every class is alloted a mentor for addressing student's queries and difficulties. Most of the professors possess a doctorate degree and the quality of education is truly impeccable. There is a lot of practical learning excercises which is compulsory for all the students and thus ensures personality development of every students. If one considers the syllabus and the degree of difficulty, it is a bit ahead of other colleges. This is because many of the colleges opt for MCQ pattern for conducting examination except for the honours subjects but Xavier conduct all its exams in a subjective manner. The course also involves tonnes of internal assessment. One needs to be regular and updated in order to pass the semester.

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Though the level of competition even for getting an intership is too high, it offers tonnes of internship opportunities. The Placement Cell of Xavier keep the students updated about the internship opportunities through their website. Big firms like Zomato,Kantar also offers interships for the post of sales manager, business analysts,digital marketing etc. along with stipend.However, most of the internships opportunities are offered by startups.

Placement Experience

The college has a placement cell to make students well versed in the placement process. However most of the students prefer to go for higher education rather than for a job which is why the placement rate is not very high. Also keeping in mind the current job market , it is not very wise to expect a high pay job after merely having an undergraduation degree. Like most of the students ,I have also planned to go for professional courses after my graduation.However its placement cells provides many opportunities for internships and jobs

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees per semester for the evening batch of B.Com. is 50k which is just double the fees of other colleges. Undoubtedly it's too high and one should give a deep thought about it before getting into college. The college also provides the opportunity of availing scholarships. However one can apply for it only if they meet the scholarship criteria of minimum marks, age, and family's annual income.

Campus Life

4

Xavier has a lot of societies like Commerce Society, Finance Society, Entrepreneurship Development Cell, Literary clubs and the list goes on . For the purpose of social work, it has NSS which is open for all the departments. Insignia is a business festival organised every year by the students.In order to ensure the engagement of the students in various societies and fests, the college has made it compulsory for every student to complete 90 hours of non-academic credit by attending different programs and seminars. It equally ensures their involvement in social work by making it compulsory to have 30 hours of social credit. The availability of books, journals, past year's question papers in the library is adequate. In addition to it, they also provide online access to the library.

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.
