My brother is currently a 2nd-year student at Jadavpur University. Here is a glimpse of the beautiful experience he had till now:

• Jadavpur University has one of the biggest campuses in whole Kolkata. 
• You will love the freedom that you get in the very aura of the place. You can enjoy everything, from strolling around the campus to watch a movie with your friends. 
• You can be a part of various clubs like the Debating Society, Painting Club, Dance Club, etc. to welcome and help you develop your passion. You will have enough time to devote to both studies and extra-curricular activities.
• The Central Library is a 5-storey filled with all the books and journals you might want to read. Along with its separate reading rooms, it's surely a great place for a day of non-stop exam preparation.
• Other exciting things to do at JU are watching the football matches, and enjoying great food at more than 7 canteens, distributed all over the campus.

The amazing campus, guidance of professors, and essence of college life can't be summed up in a few words. You won’t regret taking admission at JU and will call it an experience of a lifetime.

Jadavpur University is renowned for its educational quality and is recognized worldwide. It is a member of AIU and NAAC accredited.

As per one of the alumni’s experiences, Sanskriti is the coolest thing about the university.

• Sanskriti is the annual fest of the university. It lasts for a week for the engineering students. 
• When the arts, management, and science fields are combined, the fests stretch till two weeks.
• The fest acts as the launchpad for budding talents by providing them a platform and audience. 
• Many well-known Bengali bands and musicians have given credits to Sanskriti as it helped them gain recognition. Some of these are Raghu Dixit Project, Advaita, and more.
• Jadavpur University, unlike other institutes, does not feature any famous bands or Bollywood singers. It features quality independent performers.

The best part is that no money gets out of the pockets of students. The university bears all expenses. Overall, there are many things to list, but the campus festivals are the best way to unite.

CGPA, or SGPA (Semester Grade Point Average) in Jadavpur University is estimated using several weighted means. Every course of the institute has credit points equal to the respective weights. The SGPA is equal to [summation(f *x)/summation(f)], where “f” denotes credit points, while “x” denotes the absolute grade point in a subject.

The summation, in a way, is supposed to be taken over in the courses per semester.

Here is how the administration signifies the absolute grade points,

• 90–100, grade S, grade point 10
• 80–90, grade A, grade point 9
• 70–80, grade B, grade point 8
• 60–70, grade C, grade point 7
• 50–60, grade D, grade point 6
• 40–50, grade E, grade point 5

Unlike the grading system followed in IITs, Jadavpur University typically follows an absolute grading system. NITs, quite similarly, use the highest grade point as 85–90, while the second highest is 75–85. Thus, the GPA would supposedly be less, as opposed to either NITs or IITs. For example, a 9 pointer is supposed to gain a percentage between the range of 75 to 85. But, in JU, a percentage of 78% will be a close GPA of around 8.3.
