Presidency University College Life

The course curriculum is very different from surrounding Universities, it definitely follows the UGC curriculum but in addition to it , it has many other good patterns and topics included . The course is made in such a way that it helps in competitive exams like NET, GATE and JAM. The faculty student ratio is good. But right now there is a bit less of faculty present, but I hope that soon the vacancy will be filled. Every faculty has a Phd degree in his/her specialised field along with some major and famous publications and books. Their teaching methods are quite impressive and great, like if you listen to the classes very properly you will understand any hard topic with very ease. Also, regular laboratory work along with assignments are given for a practice which are useful in building concepts. The exams are always in good times, like if you want to give exams like GATE and JAM you will get a month to prepare because the semester exams are conducted in such a way. It is easy .

The fee structure is very affordable. for admission, you need about 2000 and for every semester, you need less than 2000. For SC/ST/OBC students these fees go down a bit low. There is no such campus job available, but the university keeps you updated about national and state scholarships that you are eligible for and will assist with the application and all of the processes.

The campus life at presidency is very very good, it gives a hinge of the 90's along with modern lifestyle and the culture of Bengal and India. Everyone here can have free opinion and free point of views . Also, it's very friendly for communities like LGBTQ+. There are two main Fests know as MILEU and ICON conducted by the student body along with the political party present in the campus, which are a tot blast. As said previously a huge amount of books are available along with departmental library books and access to many journals and online libraries for free. There are many social groups for a lot of things like dance, art, sports, etc. The facebook and Instagram page for the art group is named Bichitrita. Also there is a confession page on Facebook run by the students names " Confession page Presidency University." The classrooms are very comfortable with the availability of AC and an old vintage view. The classrooms are basically gallery types.

Mostly people above 94% from CBSE boards are picked and 90% and above for categories like SC/ST/OBC . For other boards such as West Bengal State Board, the cutoff percentage was the same . But From now on and in general, addmission will be done on the basis of marks obtained in the exam PUBDET. The application form of PUBDET can be found in the university website , application fees is 1000 for general category and 500 for SC/ST/OBC and application beigns around January/February of each year and the exam is conducted around July/August, a month after the results are published and the admission process are completed. Every year the cutoff changes and accordingly the benefits of SC/ST/OBC prevail.
