Jadavpur University - [JU], BA, Economics

Remarks

Apply using JU official website, notices are printed there and links are also provided there. Reservation is fully applicable here as it's a government institute (however I don't know the details since I didn't avail any, am a general category student). Application fees were waived off in our time, if present now, they must be minuscule. Admission involved a written test and grade 12 scores.

Course Curriculum Overview

1.5

I had no intention to become an engineer, hence economics was my choice. The faculty-student ratio is decent, batches are not huge. Exams are quite difficult to score, especially in the pre-final year. There have been instances of good students scoring 10%-20% marks in internals. The frequency of exams was as follows - 3rd sem started in August, exams started at the end of August, the whole of September, the whole of November, and the whole of December. The new semester starts mid-January. That gives you a picture I believe. Professors are generally good, and some are great. However I suggest non-Bengalis please refrain from coming here, during my viva a professor started in Bengali, and when I told them that I don't know it that well, they said "Why not, you have to know it", "Why should we not speak in Bangla in our state". It was my Viva at that time but all I wanted to say was, with all due respect professor, the medium of instruction is English, you must speak in that. But, not all professors are like that.

Class Size: 60Course Fees: INR 1200 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

Fees structure is minuscule. It was Rs. 1235 in 1st year and Rs. 950 in the second year. Even this can be waived or you can receive government scholarships if you belong to the non-general category. The college will not help you get placed after your bachelor's. After Masters the placements are decent. CitiBank recruits mainly. Avg CTC I guess was 15 LPA Deloitte and KPMG offered very few roles, maybe 1 by Deloitte, and 2 by KPMG.

Campus Life

Many active groups and clubs, E-Cell is quite a thing here for aspiring entrepreneurs. Social clubs like Animal Society is quite active. Sports are ample and amenities are decent. Lots of freedom given to students here. Minimum interference.

Homebound Forward with Jadavpur University

I have always wanted to study in Jadavpur University in one of their literature departments since I was a kid. This was a way of achieving a tiny dream of mine. Moreover, the Comparative Literature Department is the best in all entire Asia and the first one in the country. I wanted to experience the greatness of this course and how the canons of this literature were formed here. It is also the topmost State Public University and 9th in NIRF I wanted to be a part of an institution that could be great to this extent. The admission took place on the basis of a merit-based entrance examination. The seats are limited; therefore, only the top 15 students out of almost 800-1000 who appeared for the exam were selected. This was one of my top priorities, defeating all the other options I had....Read More

The Pros and Cons of Joining Jadavpur University Masters of Arts in Economics

1) I applied for Delhi School of Economics, however couldn't manage an admission due to the extreme cutoff on CUET exam for the same. I had confirmed admission from North Bengal University, however it was not feasible since I had a choice in Jadavpur University. Jadavpur University has the best rank among all other colleges I had a confirmed admission to, so I chose this University. 2) I wanted to study in Delhi School of Economics, but couldn't make it there due to the extensive cutoff in CUET which I unfortunately couldn't clear. 3) Jadavpur University conducts its own internal exam for admission into its esteemed Masters of Arts [M.A.] programme. However one can get through by CUET exams as well, however that needs a decent score. The cutoff in the internal exam is around 70% for General Category and for CUET, the cutoff varies yearly....Read More
