Remarks
Studying in such a college is dream come true for many, luckily I got an opportunity to study here. It is a Christian minority college and has a well-developed teaching facility in all the departments. I took admission in the month of August 2017 in the zoology department. I was initially selected in other colleges but I chose Scottish Church College over others just because of its strictness and the heritage that it bears with it. I had then taken the help of collegedunia to gather information about the colleges I had applied to. Finally, my dream came true and now I can proudly call myself a Caledonian!
Course Curriculum Overview
I had chosen zoology due to my love for the subject of biology. The student-professor ratio in Scottish Church College is phenomenally 1:15. The faculty has vast experience in the field of biology and each and everyone are PhD scholars. They mainly use projectors to teach the students and sometimes they even upload research papers in online mode so that students can avail them as per their requirement. The College is pretty strict with the curriculum and has a rich teaching culture, exams are held every 6 months for semester students before they are allowed to sit for the final examinations.
Placement Experience
Students are eligible for placements who belong to the final year. Giants like Wipro, cognizant, PWD, TCS all recruit students from our campus and give 3LPA average. 80% of students get placed every year. I have opted for higher studies and currently pursuing my master's in science.
Fees and Financial Aid
The fees of the college is a bit more than the other colleges as it is government aided and not directly under the West Bengal government. Fees for 3-year Bsc is approx 30-35k. The college might be a bit costly but it enjoys a wide variety of lab instruments and samples which other colleges clearly lack. The placement cell of the college is again a highlight for the college as every year in the month of January, MNCs like Wipro, cognizant, TCS recruit from students of different departments who enroll for the interviews.
Campus Life
The college has a student union which is authorized by the principal to conduct an annual fest "Caledonia" which comprises 4 days. Renowned artists and performers are invited and these 4 days are enjoyed by each and every Caledonian to the utmost. During this fest, sports events are also organized to support India. Apart from this, inter-college competitions like debates and seminars are held all throughout the year. The library is simply glorious as it has a stock of about 10 lakh books, moreover, departments have their own libraries so that students can easily grab a book of their choice. The classrooms are equipped with projectors and have every high tech support that a student may need in due course.
