Admission to the BA(Hons) Business Economics course at Shivaji College requires the DU JAT entrance exam. After initially gaining admission to Dr. Bhim Rao Ambedkar College, the applicant switched to Shivaji College by canceling the previous admission and retrieving necessary documents. The admission process at Shivaji College involves purchasing an informative brochure, completing and submitting forms, with a strict fee submission deadline by 12:00 PM the next day for admission confirmation.
The faculty is strict on attendance, with consequences for non-compliance, yet they are approachable and supportive, offering a clear teaching method. The course runs for four years with two semesters annually, each containing exams totaling 100 marks. The course is self-financed, with annual fees ranging from 32,000 INR to 40,000 INR, the first-year fee being 36,995 INR. The college provides numerous internship opportunities from the first year, with nearly 1000 internships available annually.
Students are eligible for campus placements after the third year, with the highest package reaching 22 LPA from D.E Shaw, and an average package of 3-6 LPA. The placement rate is between 50-70%, with companies like RBS, Genpact, Sharekhan, and Trevista participating. Despite some student dissatisfaction, the placement cell is active in improving opportunities. Scholarships are mainly for quota students through central government provisions, while other financial aid options like the Jawaharlal Nehru scholarship are available for application.
The course does not offer direct scholarships or financial aid, contributing to its higher fees compared to other DU JAT courses.
