Keep an eye on the notice board of the website. Links are frequently available.

The admission process was smooth. I got admitted to this college based on the 12th mark. The admission cut off. For Bengali hons. is 80%. I don't have any reservations. The admission procedure is good, no need for any changes.
There's no entrance exam. Eligibility is 12th pass. Above 70% for honors and above 40% for general. Application forms are found on the college website and they share every detail there regarding the admission process. There are reservation benefits available as the college has seat for Reserved students and the eligibility criteria is a bit low.
The students need to pass their 10+2 examination from west bengal board or any other board with a minimum aggregate of 40% . The students must also english as one of their main subjects in10+2. You have to fill the application form online from the college website and application form is free. The admission fees is 4000.
I have done Bsc in Botany with 72% marks Vijaygarh Jyotish Roy college then I applied here in M.sc in Botany in Jogmaya Devi College for M.sc. Here the eligibility for this course is you have to pass your graduation in Botany honors with a minimum of 45% marks. Then you can apply here. But the competition is very high so you need a minimum of 60% marks to pursue M.sc here. In my case, I got 72% in Bsc so I got admitted here easily. Here no entrance exam was taken. Everything is based on the merit list. One thing is that this college is only for girls. So you have to be a girl to be eligible here. You will find the application form on the college website www.jogomayadevicollege.ac.in. The admission fee is Rs 23000 which is comparatively high. Yes, there is reservation seats available for minority & other's university candidate.
Jogamaya Devi college is the morning session of Asutosh College under Calcutta University. It is located at Hazra. You can easily visit our college by metro (Jatin Das Park metro, gate no 1). Metrophobiac people can try the bus as well (Hazra Stoppage). Its timing is generally from 6.15 am to 11 am (summer) and in winter 7 am to 11.30 am. So, after attending classes in the morning you will have enough time to study or doing your preferable work. The library has all the books availability. Canteen is on the top floor, So students mainly prefer to eat outside rather than a canteen. Faculties were nice and knowledgeable. Laboratories are also good. Lab attendants were well trained. All the colleges under Calcutta University follow the same syllabus. It is not an autonomous college. Practical classes are more regular than theory classes. Students mainly depend on coachings for theory classes. Official staffs are a little bit irritated but their service depends on your behaviour too.
There is no such activities you have to face. To get admission only your 12th grade marks will examine. If you want to take this subject then make sure that you are student of pure science. You have to take chemistry and mathematics in your 12th grade.
Since i belong to poor family and my family's financial condition is not good so my father decided and told that to take admission in as the total program fees is much modarate to be payable by my family. The only thing I like about this college is it demands very low fees.
It's Morning College, that's the main reason I took admission over here.And then transport availability.Though it's morning college but generally the classes helds around 8 a.m.sometimes 9.30, (basically I'm not a early riser,but I have other works to do,and after getting back home I have times to study or to do other things.so I had to chose morning college). that's it.
