Admission to the Physics Honours program requires at least 84% in the 12th-grade exams, with the process including a shortlist based on results and an interview, which can now be conducted remotely. The program boasts a supportive faculty with a 1:4 faculty-to-student ratio, emphasizing diverse teaching methods and hands-on lab sessions. The curriculum involves regular assignments and exams, with the fees for B.Sc. Physics Honours totaling around INR 30,000 to 40,000 annually.

Placement opportunities are more robust for B.Com and MBA students, with 80%-95% securing jobs annually at starting salaries of 1.6 LPA. Major recruiters include Google and Microsoft, offering packages between 5 LPA to 18 LPA. While science graduates, particularly from B.Sc Physics, have fewer placements, the college supports PhD students with stipends and offers internships. Financial support includes the central government Inspire scholarship worth 1.5 lakhs and the McM scholarship.

Students pay around INR 75,000 annually, with the first semester fees approximately INR 35,000 including library and development costs, and second semester fees averaging INR 14,000 based on minor subjects.

A short review of my college

Likes

Class schedules are not so heptic and manageable.

Fees and Financial Aid:

Every year we've to pay roughly about ?60,000. We've to pay this in 4 installment, roughly ?15,000 in every 4 month. In every installment there is ?1,500 tution fees, ?4,800 development fees and ?4,800 additional fee compulsory. But in some installments there is additional lab fees of ?1,700 and exam fees of ?2000. And if we fail to pay the fees in time college charges ?300 fine per month. Also when I first took admission I paid ?40,000 total as first installment and then the rest 3 installments were as usual. And college provides scholarships but I don't have much idea about this.

Inside review of St. Xavier's college kolkata(Autonomous)

Student Snaps:

The addmission fees for my course was approximately 40000 and the semester fees are around 30000. So the first year fees was around 1 lakh for my course. But from the second year I have to pay around 50000 per year. There is obviously scholarship options based on your family background and your results also. I don't think there is any difference in fees in different categories. 5000 is given if you top in the examination and there is another scholarship or discount in fees if your family income is low.

St. Xavier's College (Autonomous) review

Dislikes

Too much importance is given in attendence. It get's extremely difficult to maintain 75 percent above if you are a sick person.

Sxc is a afterall a private college so the fee structure is more expensive than that of a government college. There are two installments for each semester. While admission the fees for the first installment of first sem was taken along with other fees for library, development,etc. It was around 35k and the fees second installment was 14k which varies for students with different minor subjects. Each year 4 such installations are there. Sum is around 75,000.

Review of my college St xavier's

In this college fees is approximate 4500-5000 per semester. And if anybody has a laboratory in a particular subject then, in that case, they have to pay more. There are extra charges for the laboratory. There is no stipend system.

The college of Dreams

There are no such scholarships for B.Sc. students as of now. But we can apply for the central government scholarship program named 'Inspire'. By this scholarship program each elogible student can get 1.5 lakhs one time.
