What Students Say

Likes

The faculty is extremely good. Most teachers are highly experienced.
There are two different canteens. The food is alright.
Students have the freedom to choose their own outfit for the day.

Dislikes

I disliked the way notices are often given at the last moment.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course curriculum has been satisfactory for me. Oue faculty makes the materials even more interesting and as an english honours student, an affection towards the subject is very necessary for pursuing it.

Class Size: 45Course Fees: INR 17905 per year

Internships Opportunities

Companies like wow momo have offered in person internships. "Amar kutir society for rural development, Santiniketan" had collaborated with the college for another in person internship. Online internship offers have also been provided by some other companies.

Fees and Financial Aid

The admission fees is 17,905 rupees. It varies, depending upon the minor chosen by the student. For example, this is the fees for english honours students with psychology and sociology as their minors.

Campus Life

The campus life here is quite chill. There are several intercollege fests in which students of all semesters are encouraged to participate in. The classrooms are very cool and comfortable to study in throughout the year. Several activity clubs are present. These are run by the college students themselves.

Admission

I chose this college because it was the first one I was accepted in. I applied for two other colleges and thankfully was accepted in them as well but was recommended to join Scottish Church College because of their discipline, legacy and faculty. It is a heritage college for a reason.

Faculty

The faculty is great and they are mostly quite approachable. Students can present their queries to the teachers through texts. Few professors are very easy-going whilst few others can be slightly intimidating. The exams conducted inside the college are mainly the internals before the theoretical exams.

Night Life

It is pretty calm around the college at night. There is seldom any unnecessary ruckus. Several good food stalls and hangout spots surround the college. The hostels are well maintained as well. The college has a gym, two canteens and two libraries.

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.

Dislikes

The unavailability of the boys hostel in our college .

Course Curriculum Overview:

I really liked geography as a subject for learning and exploring as it includes fieldwork , surveys and excursion which enhances our mind and experience in our life and this way we have many opportunities to learn new things in our life which is helpful for our future purposes. The only improvements I would like to note that to improve the toilet facilities and placement opportunities.

Proper overall satisfactory experience.

Likes

My overall experience is too good with good environment
I get proper theoretical knowledge from experienced faculties.
We get hands on experience from different star categories of hotels during the course in every weekend.

I also applied to the main university but didn't get a chance there. That is why I had to take admission in this blasted institution. I received the rejected from the University due to my lack of percentage in the paper called marksheet. That is what went wrong. The admission process is completely done through the internet. To apply one must have a minimum of 60 % marks in their previous courses. That allows you to fill up the application form. Now to actually get admitted in the institution you must clear the cut off marks which differs year to year depending on the students that have applied....Read More

You have to pass the 12 th boards with above 90% marks then only you'll get the college. They always have the application form and all the informations in there official college website. There was reservation policies as I was sc so it was a little bit low cut off for my reservation. The exam pattern and difficulty level was a little bit hard. The admission process was smooth so I would not suggest anything to change about it....Read More
