Admission:

No i didn't apply for any colleges. I choose this college over any colleges because of my personal issues. No I didn't get rejection from any of the colleges. The admission process is too easy firstly we have to apply in chancellor portal and then fill out academic details and pay the registration fee of 100 rupees and submit it and when the list comes out we can simply get admission offline from college.

Admission:

To be honest, I didn't apply on any other colleges other than this one.The reason behind this is very simple.My parents mostly stay sick and they need someone to support them.If i leave the city and go out for studies who will be here to take care of them.I need to stay here with them and study at the same time at the same city. The admission process was very simple as I have some teachers of the college whom i personally know very well.

Admission:

Other college i applied in AN college dumka to take an admission in bsc zoology. But i didn't choose this one because of lack of quality education and many more factors like Teachers are not supportive or attached with student. Classes are not freeqently or there is no regular classes over there. To take admission in our college first of all you have to apply on chancellor portal According to your merit they will release a merit list. If tour name is on that list you can continue you admission by submitting admission fee along with documents. Cutoff varies every year but on average you have to score atleast 75% on that particular subject in which you want to take honours.
