St.Xaviers Kolkata: The real experience.

Likes

The college has many societies and and provides students opportunities to grow in different subjects
I didn't like anything other than that in my college

Dislikes

The attendance criteria is very strict. One has to keep their Attendance above 75% or else they won't be allowed to appear for the semester exam.
The don't encourage sports at all. The sports head is very rude and doesn't allow anyone to participate in any tournaments. She treats student athletes as her peons and lowly workers. It's hell if you want to study and continue sports over there.
They put a lot of academic pressure on the students, and the faculty also isn't student Friendly at all.

Placement Experience:

Students become eligible for placements after 3rd year. Companies like deloitte, pwc, v guard have come here for recruitment. Average package is 6lpa and the highest package last year was 20lpa. Around 30% students get campus placement. I am a student athlete and I would like to continue with my sport full time after the degree. I just wanted to get a degree from a good college just to add a star to my CV

St. Xavier's- The Dream College

Likes

The spacious classrooms, and how each individual fits perfectly.
The cafeteria, it is perfect for refreshments during the recess, one gets a lot of varieties to have and enjoy!
The number of societies and clubs it offers to the students, to grow and explore more opportunities.

Dislikes

The punctuality, it is not something to be disliked, but even at serious circumstances, one needs to be quite punctual.
The washrooms need to be more cleaner, and it should be more in number

Placement Experience:

One of the best thing about the campus, or a thing which the students brag about, is the Placement Cell of the college. The placement cell offers various placements with different specilisation, with diversifying its area to the utmost. The quality of placement is stupendous. Areas such as Marketing, Finance, HR, and even to the students who are pursuing professional course such as CA, Actuarires, CFA, CS, and more.

Likes

THE FACULTY ARE READILY APPROACHABLE AND THE SENIORS ARE ALSO VERY FRIENDLY AND THEY INVOLVE THE JUNIORS IN ALL THE EVENTS AND MAKE THEM FEEL APPRECIATED AND EVEN REWARD THEM FORR THEIR GOOD WORKS.THE ENVIRONMENT IS SAFE AND COMFORTABLE AROUND. I
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF SOCIETIES PRESENT SO THAT THE STUDENTS CAN FOCUS BOTH ON CURRICULARS AS WELL AS EXTRA CURRICULARS.FOR EVERY INTEREST GROUP THERE IS A SOCIETY PRESENT SO THAT U DEVELOP UR INTEREST GROUPS AND CAN FOCUS EQUALLY ON BOTH ASPECTS.

Dislikes

THE INFRASTRUCTURE IS VERY POOR AND PEOPLE MAY BE DISAPPOINTED SEEING THE INFRASTRUCTURE AS THERRE ARE 4 FLOORS PRESENT AND LIFT IS NOT PRESENT AND PEOPLE WILL NEED TO CLIMB TO 3-4 FLOORS EVERYDAY THAT ALSO IN PROPER TIME

Placement Experience:

THEPLACEMENT PROVIDED IS VERY GOOD INFACT SXC FALLS UNDER THE CATEGORY OF PROVIDING THE BEST PLACEMENT OPPORTUNITIES.BIG MNCS LIKE DELOITTE,PWC ,ETC VISIT THIS COLLEGE PARTICULARLY FOR CAMPUS PLACEMENTS AND THEY HIRE MAX STUDENTS FROM OUR COLLEGE PROVIDED ONE SHOULD DEVELOP SOME SOFT SKLLS SO THAT THEY CAN STAND OUT AND MAINTAIN A CGPA ABOVE 7 SO THAT YOUR CHANCES ARE HIGHER.

Experience speaks

Likes

The opportunities to develop soft skills as in seminars held where you can be a speaker and present a presentation for your group
The biggest event Xavotsav helps you show your skills in the entertainment field
It provides you with a pool of placements which is a remarkable feature

Dislikes

The campus is not that big as shown in pictures
College promotes some specific sports only like football and basketball
The dress code and discipline is stricter than school and they make you sit roll number wise

Placement Experience:

placements are average to low. Some big companies do come and offer a great salary but demand an extraordinary CGPA of 9 and 9.5 which is very difficult for the level of papers set by St Xavier's college.

Life in SXC!

Likes

Faculty Members : This is the biggest plus and flex because the faculty is very experienced with most of them being PHD holders and their teaching style is truly amazing.
Campus Life: Xaviers is always busy with events and various other fests and activities happening throughout the year. The crowd is full of energy and there is no ragging or fights as well because of strict institutional policies
Campus Placement: Xaviers gives you the best campus placement in Eastern India and henceforth you feel a sense of security that you don’t end up doing a below average job or being unemployed. Kudos to Placement Cell

Dislikes

Infrastructure: Well Xaviers is almost 300 years old building so its a heritage campus and there are restrictions imposed by government on modifications. The infrastructure is decent but can be improved

Placement Experience:

The Placement Cell of Xaviers is amazing. The placements they offer is genuinely great considering its Kolkata. There are various companies that come throughout the year and offer diff roles as well like marketing, finance etc. The higest pacakage is given by companies like DE Shaw, White Oak, Meesho etc. Highest was around 24Lpa and average is 6.5Lpa

Xaviers and their drama

Likes

The BRAND name. Xaviers is a hype and it has a very good brand name.

Dislikes

The attendance criteria. Compulsory 75% attendance and that too for individual subjects.
People doing other courses alongwith like CA, CS, CMA do not really like this criteria.

Student Snaps:

Course Curriculum Overview:

There are many societies in our college to promote different aspects of students. The only thing i hate about this is that seniors are really rude. When they conduct interviews for society, they just ask you stupid questions which is not even relevant. They even ask you to dance or sing for their entertainment and then insult you infront of everyone.

The essence of St. Xavier's College, Kolkata

Likes

Infrastructure & maintainance, behaviour of the ground staff
Teaching faculty, labs assistants, library services
Societies and exposure to the world, seminars and internship opportunities with corporate training

Dislikes

The lack of timely reminders and facilities to get notices in your hand.

Placement Experience:

D.E.Shaw, Accenture, Delloite and other very good companies visit the campus. The employment rate it 95%. The median package is 8-9 lakhs and the highest package is around 24-25 lakhs. St. Xavier's is an amazing launching pad for people who desire to study abroad for their masters. Students become eligible for campus placement from the 6th semester.
