I had heard many suggestions that this college is great and personally my sister graduated from the same college. I had gotten acceptance from parul, hl college, and a few other colleges too. But this one is cheaper and has a more prominent name than other colleges in terms of placement and other aspects. I had applied to Fergusson college in Pune but the cutoff there was 93 for general non Maharashtrians and I got 91%. Admission process didn't have any hiccups and it's pretty simple. Although this college opened almost 1.5 months earlier than other colleges. Eligibility is solely based on your 12th marks and that too only the major papers

For my course, selection was done on the merit basis. Any student who has completed his high school with 90+ marks in English was eligible for this course. The application form, fees, and dates, everything is appropriately available on the college's website. Yes, if you belong to ST/SC you are given reservation and relaxation in the cutoff. Exans are held regularly in a proper manner. The difficulty level of the exams conducted are moderate to high. Admission process involves both online mad offline process and sometimes takes couple of days. It should be resolved and made easy as students come from far places.

The admission process was smooth and efficient, it took me less effort in document verification and the staff was very helpful. interview process and admission is very smooth too. fee payment and payment of challan is smooth too.
The admission process is very simple. Firstly, students have to fill out the college form and pay the form fee (800/-). Then, if they were shortlisted their names would come into the first list which is released by the college. College releases a total of three lists where the names of students declare whoever is shortlisted. Then, the shortlisted students have to take an entrance exam. The students can find their application form and other details on the official site of the college i.e. www.sxcran.org\ The level of this entrance exam is medium not so difficult.

Yes, you can get admission at St. Xavier College, Ranchi. As they select students based on their performance in the entrance test and not on their pass-out year. However, you should check the eligibility criteria regarding age limit and marks. You will only be selected for admission if you fulfill the eligibility criteria.
