Course Curriculum Overview
I opted for the course as St. Xavier's College Kolkata is a well-known college in India and its B.Com. The faculty review was good. Faculty: student ratio is about 1:85. All the faculty members have a minimum master's degree and most of them have either completed their CA or have completed their Ph.D. Xavier conducts 2 exams per semester. One of them is mid-sem and one is the final semester exam. Questions are a little difficult and business mathematics is tough to pass.
Fees and Financial Aid
Fees for each semester range from 35000-45000 depending upon the semester and optional subjects. No college doesn't provide any scholarship or financial assistance. Fees hike is regular. Expect about a 15% fees hike each year. On-campus placement is also average.
Campus Life
Xavier's annual fest is very popular in the entire Kolkata. It is known as 'Xavostav'. Students from different college, begs for passes. The event takes place in the month of February. Other annual events are- Bonfire Night in December, Xavier Premier League in September, and Sports Day in March. Department of Science conducts a tech fest somewhere around November. Books from Every genre can be found in the central library of the college. Students need not buy any books, all the books related to the course can be easily borrowed from the library. Classrooms are very basic with a normal projector and ACs and wooden benches. Regular Inter department and inter College tournaments are held semi annually. Popular sports are kabaddi, football, cricket, darts, table tennis, basketball, and relay.
Admission
There was no entrance test when I got admitted in the year 2021. I got admission purely based on class 12th marks. However, now you have to give a common entrance test followed by a PI round. Application forms can be found on the official website of the college. I didn't avail of any reservation. However, there is a reservation for sc, st, obc, ews, and specially-abled students.
