Remarks

St. Xavier's College has been constantly ranked amongst the topmost colleges in India. Having been established for more than 100 years, this college features some of the best faculty in this country. The placements too are very decent and the course curriculum is very well designed as well.

Course Curriculum Overview

The curriculum is very well designed. In fact, the college authorities were prompt enough to change the syllabus of "Indirect Taxes" class when GST was implemented in India. Apart from the curriculum, the faculty consists of professors who have immense experience in the field they are teaching. Interactive class sessions made sessions interesting as well as communicative. They also have regular assessments known as CIAs, apart from the main semester examinations. Teachers are available during specified hours for doubt-clearing sessions.

Internships Opportunities

Interned with Miss Chase (Chase Lifestyle Pvt. Ltd.) as a Marketing and Operations Intern. Received a monthly stipend of ?3500. Had applied via mail as mentioned on the Facebook page of our Placement Cell, was subsequently called for an interview and finally selected.

Placement Experience

4

Placements in our college were good for both all the specialisations in the final year. Many well-known companies visited our campus for recruitment. Some of them included Delloite, EY, Axis Bank, McKinsey and so on. Many private sector banks also visit our campus for recruitment. Companies visit the campus starting from August for final year students and continues their visits until the end of the semester. Internships offered are also quite good with companies offering fair stipends to the students. The Placement Cell assists in finding internships and final placements too.

College Events

5

Many events are held throughout the year in the college. The most major event is Xavotsav held in the month of January, organization by the Student's Council. Other events include sports, educational seminars, quizzes, competitions and so on. The Xavier's Commerce Society and the Xavier's Management Society are two major clubs that organise events mainly directed for students of commerce. The ones interested in participating in any event at the college are to get in touch with the respective clubs.

Campus Life

The campus has a huge field where various activities including sports and other events take place. WiFi is present inside the campus upon registration. The library is huge and one can find almost any study material they're looking for. The cyber room also facilitates usage of the computer and internet services for research purposes. The computer lab was very well equipped as well. Classrooms are equipped with projectors for better learning, however desks and chairs in certain classrooms have worn off due to heavy usage over the years. Classrooms aren't air-conditioned. The college has a canteen which offers food at reasonable rates, taste of which could be better.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus and curriculum of Calcutta University is aligned with other entrance examination (eg.IIT JAM, JEST, TIFR, GATE etc.) Specially for the Physics BSc course. And the syllabus is updated Artificial intelligence bacis, Python Advance level is in syllabus, it's completed in college. Point to be Noted - The time given to prepare for the exam is sometimes ample but sometimes it is very less. So we have to prepare syllabus in time which is little bit frustrating.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for campus placements starting from the 7th semester. For placement drives, we have to visit the main campus, Techno Main Salt Lake (TMSL). Since students from other Techno India campuses and branches also participate, the competition is extremely high. In the 2025–2026 academic year, fewer companies visited. Only two companies, Dronahost and WishCare, visited our specific campus directly. The remaining drives—mostly service-based companies like TCS and EY, along with a few startups—were conducted at the main campus. The remaining drives mostly service based companies like TCS, EY etc and quite a few startups has visited to main campus. The package they offered mostly in between 3.5lpa - 6 lpa. Furthermore the selection process of those startups is quite rigorous often consisting of upto 5 rounds of interview, two technical rounds with two technical interviews, and HR round My plans after getting the degree is either pursue an MBA or preparing for govt jobs
