Loreto College Kolkata Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

I always loved English. So Studying in Loreto was a dream come true to me. Our departmental teachers are very friendly and you can ask as many qs as you want. Yes , the college is a very very strict but you will learn a lot. The midterm exams are not that difficult and teachers will guide you. There are 50 students in our department and teachers teach every individual properly.

In the History Department, each year has an average of 40 students, and there are 5 faculty members plus one lecturer. The faculty members are very cooperative and helpful. Unlike other colleges, they actually try to finish the syllabus every semester. The exam pattern is designed by CU. Semester dates remain unknown till atleast 1 month before the exam, which the case for all CU affiliated colleges.

I chose this course because basically I have been good in English from childhood so I want to be a teacher in English subject so I choose this course. The faculty members are really nice they are highly qualified They all have their Ph. D.s they have theses in various disciplines, and they published their papers in various institutions like Cambridge, Oxford, and other Universities the review of teaching faculty is is one of the best faculty I have come across.

The students are eligible for campus placements from the past semester that is from semester six. The number of companies visited is around 10 and the no of offered is near about 20 but there is a catch not all students are placed as it is completely based on merit and only a few can make it to the placement list. The highest-paid package would be 40,000 and the average would be 20,000. The percentage of students getting placements is a bit low. My plans will depend completely on the result of my last semester.

From third-year companies start coming to the campus for student selection. Companies like TCS, Cognizant, and Amazon visit for placements. The package usually depends on the job role and skill set of an individual. I opted out of counseling these companies because I would pursue sports management in the future.

I have choose BA General. I have political science, education and history as my core courses and for my aecc i have bengali. Each semester has examination and internal assessment with tutorial assignment.

Placement opportunities are not that much. It is mainly for students from the Economics Course. A few companies which have come for providing employment opportunities to students are ICICI, Indigo. I feel more placement opportunities are provided to students.

The timely exams generally depend on the University the college is associated with, Calcutta University. The questions are also set by the University itself. But Loreto takes care of the strict discipline and the regular touch in the studies.

The Environment of the college is safe for girls and the college takes great care in terms of academics. The faculty is more or less good and I've been hearing good things about the college and it's excellence from its seniors. The only drawback is it's very conservative in it's nature, thoughts and actions. There are some useless events that occur in the name of religious sentiments. Otherwise it is aided with good libraries and also good and working instruments for lab support. Overall a good college to take admission to.

Usually, there are placements from Loreto College. However, the batch of 2020 suffered bad luck due to Covid and everything becoming online. Other than those who were interested in placements, the majority chose to pursue higher studies in different institutions here and all over India.
