Remarks

The best thing about this college is that the academics and the infrastructure is the best here we have qualified teacher and a very supportive staff and very hygienic but with that I feel the college is a little strict with academics and has a school like environment ( which can be good for the parents)

Entrance Preview

Shri shikshayatan- is one of the most prestigious colleges in Kolkata, and is considered to be among the best colleges for commerce. The environment that this college provide is exceptionally well and is best for girls. The infrastructure of this college and of course not to forget the reputation is what made me opt for this college without having a second thought.

Course Curriculum Overview

The content is covered effortlessly and they never rush us into anything. Even the minute details are explained (not kidding).

The fee structure that is 44400 every year for three year for b.com, 32.2k/year for B.A which is quite expensive compared to other college and not everybody could afford to study but looking at the infrastructure and the quality of education Its worth the money.

Campus Life

4.5

The college life is good and since we have a beautiful campus it can never be boring but I feel the college is very strict with its acadameics hence students are more focused but undoubtedly we have a good time in college with that regular completions like debate, sports are held by different departments so it's easy to enjoy and keep our selves involve.

Hostel Facilities

Our college doesn't provide hostel facilities but there are various P.G options available near our college which can be choosen by the student. the canteen serves good and hygienic food and there are wide variety available,we even have CCD serving us.

Alumni/Alumna

The alumni of our college is very strong. And we are blessed with very cooperative and helpful seniors.

Exam Structure

The exam structure is as per the Calcutta university. The college as of now has conducted internal assessment exams twice in a year for b.com course.The exams conducted by our college is without any loopholes and considerably difficult but the college is really kind with its students and grades us fairly.

Admission

I applied for my particular course directly through the college website where I filled the admission form and paid fees of RS. 950, the next day I got a message that I was merit listed and should come with the necessary documents like attested copies of marksheet (both 10th and 12th) marksheeties,income certificate,etc. Then after filling up the admission form and paying 44400 as admission fees my marksheet was stamped and I was admitted with that I was given a prospectus which had all the details about my college and was very appealing as well.

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.
