Remarks

You have to pass the higher secondary exam with a minimum of 40% marks and you must come from the science stream with Mathematics subject. Then you are eligible for applying for this course here. No entrance exam was taken & the admission process is based on the marks you have got in your HS exam. So the higher marks you get, the higher your chance to be on the merit list. For the application form visit basirhatcollege.org and fill the form with all necessary documents. Then if you get to appear on the merit list, you have to pay the admission fee of approximately Rs 2600. Yes like any other college the reservation seats are minority students.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

I have taken a science stream in higher secondary school. And among the 4 science subject, I love mathematics most. I have also scored good marks in Mathematics. So I have selected this subject for graduation. We have a total of 5 professors and we had roughly 45 students in our department. So the balance between student & faculty is satisfactory. Some of our professors have done a Ph.D. and some of them are MSc. But their teaching methods have been the same. They are very efficient in collective class taking. They have taken practical classes and taught us the C language. We have two-semester every year and 6 semesters in total. As the semester progresses exams become difficult.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 2600 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The college fee may increase a little bit every year. But in our time the admission fee was around Rs 2300 and for the second semester the exam fee was around 800, for 3rd semester the fee was around 1200 for 4 th semester the was around 600 for 5th semester the fee was around 1300 and for the last semester, the fee was again around 700. The total fee in 3 years varies from between Rs6000-8000. College fees are generally affordable so they do not provide any financial help. You have many scholarships options available. Swami Vivekananda scholarship & Kanyashree scholarships are the most popular scholarships. You get Rs 18000 per year. But your percentage of marks must be 60% and above.

Campus Life

Our college organizes many cultural programs. When we were new we have seen freshers' programs. In winter our college organizes big cultural programs. other than that many small programs & festivals are organized and celebrated all round the year.We have a very big playground in front of our college. We have a very good library in our college. We have got some books from our college. The library room is very peaceful and wide-spaced. Our classroom is medium but not highly cleared. It's a decent room. Yes, we have a sports activity in front of our college playground. Cricket football, volleyball everything happens there. We have a hostel for students you can apply for a hostel based on the marks you have got. We have a student union group.

NOT RECOMMENDED

Likes

Campus is nice. There's greenery and all
SOME of the faculties are really good and those said teachers will actually look out for you and care
Mentors are appointed for each students who are responsible for their final year project, publications and LORs. If you are lucky, you'll get a good mentor.

Dislikes

Classrooms are less compared to the number of students. Students have to wander around the building after each classes to find seats. Classrooms are very dirty
There's literally NOTHING in the labs. Experiments take way long to prepare and perform because reagents and equipments are never available.
Hardly a 2 week summer break (because of MAKAUT). Students cannot even apply to good internships because no lab would take in external students in july or august.

Placement Experience:

People who major in my department usually opt for masters over placement not because of this college but because overall industrial or academic opportunities are better with a pg degree. Masters from this college is not recommended as i have heard so from my seniors. Some of my seniors managed to crack competitives and secure MSc seats at great places. Training and Placement cell had a good coordinator previously but now its almost non existent. Companies do come and hire Bpharm, Mpharm and MSc candidates. Packages are below average. Only Nestle pays well. But if you do well you'll eventually climb up the corportate ladder. From the time i am here i have not heard of any BSc candidate getting placed. Most go for higher studies.

Good enough

Likes

The faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive. Most teachers explain concepts clearly and are approachable after class for doubts and guidance, which helps a lot during exams.
The college has a disciplined academic environment with regular classes and practical sessions. Laboratories are functional and help students understand concepts through hands-on learning.
The campus environment is calm and student-friendly. Various seminars, cultural programs, and academic activities help in overall personality development.

Dislikes

Industry exposure and internship guidance are minimal, which could be improved to make students more job-ready after graduation.
Infrastructure can be improved, especially classrooms and laboratory equipment. Some facilities feel outdated and require modernization.
Placement opportunities for BSc students are limited. The college focuses more on academics, so students need to prepare for higher studies or competitive exams on their own.

Placement Experience:

The average package offered for such roles ranges between ?2–3 LPA, while the highest package offered to a BSc student is around ?4 LPA, depending on skills and specialization. Overall, around 15–20% of BSc students get placed through campus drives, and many students rely on off-campus opportunities.

I like the campus , it is quite huge and green , the canteen has both cooked and packed food available, a seperate common room for students and many sports equipment available. Several functions are arranged along with international conferences held
All the faculty members are soft spoken , knowledgeable and friendly, it is easy to find help regarding anything.
Professors are strict about their syllabus and subjects , paying proper attention to the students. Practicals classes are conducted without fail.

Dislikes

There is nothing as such that I disliked because I am a first year student so I haven't been so much involved yet , I think that the washrooms should be cleaned properly to maintain the hygiene apart from thjs everything is fine.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Subjects offered in the college as well as the minor and idc subjects are well adhered to the curriculum and future aspects. The subject combinations are apt and futuristic. It moderately prepares one for real world situations.

Reasons to not apply for NSHM Knowledge Campus

Likes

The admission process was very smooth, the administration board is very helpful.
The library is huge and the content of books is very good
College life and fests are good but not great

Dislikes

Placements are absolutely bogus. There were almost no good placements when i passed out part of it can be blamed on covid but mostly the college was largely at fault
Faculty was not upto the mark in regards to the hefty college fees we were charged
Even during covid online classes we were charged full fee which is again absolutely horrendous

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum was well thought out as per me but there were subjects that i found absolutely unnecessary. Subjects like history evs and clc were in no way related to my course. Coming to the main subjects Design, Printing, Photography and film and Media Training were absolutely necessary for my course and whilst the faculty for some of these subjects were really bad, some were good. It is also important to mention none of these subjects actually helped us prepare for the real world. Instead internships and freelance helped us more than these subjects could ever do. Exams were held bi monthly to keep track of what we learnt and every 6 months we had our semester exams. Overall if you want to be a media professional INTERNSHIPS AND JOBS WILL HELP YOU MORE THAN A COLLEGE WILL. I am biased on this opinion as my college didnt provide me with the correct guidance and support i needed to make it in the real world.

3 years journey in Basirhat College

For the BA General course, you have to pass the West Bengal higher secondary exam with a minimum of 45% marks in class 12. Admission is based on the marks. So 45% marks will not be enough. If you want to study here you have to get a minimum of 60% marks. A lot of seats are available but a lot of students apply every year. More numbers you get in your class 12 marks more chance to appear in merit lists. If you belong to a minority like SC/ST/OBC you have some seats reserved. One more thing supposes if you take geography history & Sanskrit as a general subject you must have these subjects in class 12. The admission form is on our college website. Once you appear on the merit list you have to pay the admission fee which is around Rs 2500 and offline document verification is needed....Read More

Review of Basirhat College

If you want to study BA pass course here the eligibility criteria are very simple. You have to get a minimum of 70% marks in your west Bengal higher secondary final exam. And admission process is directly based on your 12 mark. If you get good marks you will get admission very easily. You can choose the subject while opting for this BA general course. In my case, I have taken Bengali, History & Sanskrit because I had good marks on those subjects in my 12th exam. The application form is completely online. The official website of our college is www.basirhatcollege.org You have to fill up the form with the 10th 12th mark sheet and admit card and many other documents and after the merit list is published you have to pay the fees. Then you have to visit the college for offline documents verification. Yes, reservation is available for minority students....Read More
