Remarks

After passing out my Bcom I was looking for various colleges to complete my Mcom. I applied through the cu official website for the Mcom course and a few colleges were being listed there that are govt affiliated. As I scored above 90% in Bcom, therefore, my name appeared in the Cu cut off list and then I had to choose one college from among the few colleges listed on the cu site and I opted for Goenka. Yeah like most other govt college seats are being reserved for scheduled caste and tribe.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

In order to achieve my career goal and get managerial jobs, I had opted to do Mcom because they are highly preferred for the same. If we talk about the teachers are here they are very sincere and well qualified and talk nothing apart from studies. They are very knowledgeable and their teaching method is too good. Semester exams are held in January and August which is difficult and u have to study hard to pass.

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 4000 per year

Placement Experience

4.5

Since the very first year, you are eligible for campus placement because you are graduating already. Recently companies like Tcs and Bank of India visited the college for a campus where the average placement was around 5 lacs with the highest of 14 lacs per annum. Around 25% of students got placement. I want to get a managerial job in future.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees are very much affordable at just around Rs 4000 for a 3 years course. It is even much cheaper than my class 12 and Bcom fees. As the seats are being reserved for meritious students with just 200 seat scholarship is given to everyone who applies for it. Recently the college announced the Vivekananda Scholarship schemes.

Campus Life

As it is 2021 we are having online classes til date. I had just visited the college once relating to result procedure and the campus is good with sports facilities. Due to corona, no annual fest is being held for the last 2 years. I have heard that the college is having a library but didn't get a chance to visit the library till now. All the information are to be gathered through the college website.

My true story about my university.

Likes

The knowledge of teachers there is very vast and clear.
They try to help every student if someone go and ask them individually.
They also guide the students other than just the syllabus.

Dislikes

The management could be a lot better but it's not that bad.
The staff in the the Department of commerce office need to be more humble
The bathroom need to be more clean I mean there should be working exhaust fan.

Placement Experience:

They have the plan of yearly job placement program. In which many good company do come here. But the bad thing is that they need even more qualification area than necessary. And they also choose very less students for job.

Goenka college of commerce and business administration is the second best college in Kolkata and the best college under Calcutta University. Hence it has a brand value. I got admission offers in SXUK, Jaipuria THK Jain and Bhawanipur college, But this was the best option I had. The admission process is through your boards marks. The cutoff is around 96 in the 1st list then it drops till 90 lowest and reservation for OBC around 85 and SC ST 80...Read More

Proud to be Goenkan

I got admission in Aliah University which is in New Town Kolkata I got rank 12. I applied in Shri Shikshathan College also and got admission in first list. I rejected both the colleges as Aliah University though it is a reputed college but the placement committee is not as good as Goenka College of commerce. I applied for BBA + MBA integrated program in Aliah University but I wanted to pursue BCom honours in accountancy and finance thus I rejected Aliah University. Shri shikshayatan college on the other hand is another reputed college in which I applied for bcom honours in accountancy and finance I rejected Shri shikshayatan college as no doubt Goenka College is way more better than Shree shikshayatan and Shri shikshayatan is comparatively very much expensive in comparison with goenka. Shri shikshayatan takes around 250000 tuition fee on the other hand Goenka College charges only 4090 rs for 4 years....Read More
