Remarks

Management is very helpful and is always ready to help the students regarding anything.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Here it is based on the latest CBCS semester wise examination system and before the exams internal examinations are taken to test the preparation of the students. Students are given a time of 4 months before every semesters and often extra classes are organised for clearing doubts.

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 1500 per year

Placement Experience

It ranks 5th in Kolkata to be approx I’m not sure but students do prefer govt colleges over private colleges as they get priority in Civil Services too.

College Events

We’ve specially cultural events and management events also takes place but rarely. In terms of technical event we are always ahead of most of the colleges and Science department work hard to present their college as the best one in the state or city. And being in this college we can taste the wide colours of India as each and every occasion is celebrated full of joy.

Fee Structure And Facilities

?1500 is the charge throughout the year and they take it at once and students are provided with all the help and for the payment thing we can pay it online through Google Pay and offline mode is also available so that the students not having Smartphones can also pay their fees on time.

Fees and Financial Aid

No I didn’t opted for any scholarship or loans but this college does compensate for the SC ST OBC A and OBC B students.

Campus Life

Gender ratio is always 50-50 and each month a seminar or cultural evening event takes place and here students pay respect to every gender and religion and works together as ONE. In terms of politics college do have a college union or you can students union of a political party.

Alumni/Alumna

Yes they are always helpful and have always build up the image of college be it in any private sectors or government sectors. Our alumni consists of the best writers as well as bureaucrats.

Admission

I opted for this course because it is a government college with a lot of exposure. Students here are involved in curricular activities and they also get opportunity for NSS and students are given assistance to prepare for different cultural events of different colleges.

Faculty

My college consists of many faculties be it Science stream, Arts or Commerce. Each faculty are ready to help their students at instance. And are always interacting with the students so that they don’t face any difficulties regardinf seminars or lectures.

My Experience at Jaipuria to summed it up.

Likes

Quality education and an academically enriching environment. Most importantly, well- versed professors.
Extra- curriculum activities, along with an active sports cell and NCC, and usually various opportunities to participate in Inter-College Competitions.
Well maintained gym with separate timings for girls and boys. The canteen offers a wide variety of foods at an affordable price.

Dislikes

For my department, there was no educational excursion.
Negligence internship opportunities are available for my course.
Only some placement opportunities are available, and companies like TCS and Wipro came up for campus placement.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My passion and a bit of curiosity in International Relations led me to choose this course. The curriculum, in fact, prepared me well for further academic pursuits. For improvement, educational excursions and internship opportunities should be made available. The exam is held twice a year on semester basis, with papers set at a moderate to difficult level.

A balanced view of campus life and learning

Likes

The English department has experienced and supportive teachers. Most professors explain concepts clearly and encourage discussions, close reading and critical thinking.
The course is very affordable, especially compared to private colleges. With scholarships, it becomes accessible for students from middle and lower income backgrounds.
The college has a friendly and diverse student crowd. The girls to boys ratio is balanced with slightly more female students, which creates a comfortable learning atmosphere.

Dislikes

The infrastructure needs improvement. Classrooms and common areas could be better maintained and modern facilities are limited.
There are very few placement opportunities for arts students.
Although some academic events take place, extracurricular activities and active student societies could be improved for better campus life.

Placement Experience:

There are limited on campus placement opportunities here, especially for Arts and Eng Hons students. Most students focus on higher studies, competitive exams or off campus opportunities after graduation. The college provides basic guidance through teachers but formal placement drives are rare.

Ramakrishna Mission Vidyamandira: A Life Changing Experience

Likes

The college has an ideal atmosphere for studying and the hostel accommodation allowed for close bonding with seniors who helped us out in studies as well as personal matters. The teachers are extremely talented and treated us with care and respect.
It is an all boys college and it is without any doubt a ragging-free campus. There is anti-ragging cell as well as student councelling cell available on the campus to help out with these issues.
The experience of hostel life and the close sense of community that is formed during my stay has been instrumental in my growth and the strict implementation of discipline in our daily lives enriched me and changed my life for the better.

Dislikes

The administration is not always the best. Applications, forms, seminars and event permits all required a long time to get approved by the authorities as most of the time it meant compromising our strict schedule as it is a residential college.
The average food quality in the mess could be better. Again it is not always the best but for the most part it is decent.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum provides a comprehensive retrospective of literature from the Old English period to Modern period, while also including English works by Indian authors to demonstrate the diversity and evolution of English literature over the years. The current curriculum I believe requires more seminars and lectures from guest faculties on contemporary research and topics.

The admission depended entirely on 12th marks. Unfortunately, my own 10+2 marks didn't fit that criteria, so I chose this college.
