What Students Say

Likes

The students and the teachers are friendly
There are various clubs which are active and promotes extra curricular activities in a broad way

Dislikes

The infrastructure is so old....some part could be improved

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

Although this is a private college still it has recognition for the efficiency of this college. I wasn't interested in medicine and engineering. so I had to do a BSc so this college is one of the best in North East India. From the chemistry department, there are various scopes such as the food industry, oil industry, wax industry, ONGC, OIL, and various jobs. The teaching method is efficient and if there is any chance to improve then I would like to say that faculty should monitor that every student is being facilitated with proper materials.

Class Size: 30Course Fees: INR 44000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

In this institution, the fees are a little bit high, but compared to other private colleges and universities, this is the most affordable college. I would be specific here...In my 1st year B.Sc(1st semester and 2nd semester) the fees were around 44k and hostel fees are not included here as I haven't opted for a hostel but the hostel is a bit expensive here as the facility and strictness are maintained.

Campus Life

Along with studies various festivals take place. Overall experience is good. There are different clubs that organize events and programs frequently. The library is this college is quite popular, it has more than 50,000 as far as I know during my introductory session in the library.

Admission

For admission, online application as well as offline is available. There is no specific time to apply. The applications are accepted till seat is available. Eligibility criteria is only 60% in 12th and 55% if he /she belongs to ST category.

Faculty

This factor totally depends on the students from my personal experience I find some teachers ideal for me and this can differentiate according to the understanding of the student. The overall teaching of the faculties is good. The interaction between students and teachers takes place from time to time...and teachers also want us students to discuss any problems if facing. I am from the chemistry department and here in my department teachers are friendly.

Dislikes

too many events, this college holds too many events

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum is comprehensive ,balancing theory with practical applications. It effectively prepares students for industry challenges and also integrating more interactive teaching methods could improve engagement. Exams are frequent and moderately difficult occurring timely to assess progress without causing excessive stress.

A detailed review on my college (St Anthony’s,Shillong):pros and cons

Likes

There are many students here from different communities,tribes,and culture which helps unify poeple from different backgrounds
The faculty is nice and the teaching staff is supportive and well trained
The environment of the college is nice with proper balance of both scholastic and co scholastic activities

Dislikes

The fact that the department of fishery science is not recognised by the ICAR is a big setback for the department
There is huge number of group of students from different communities which also result in extreme communalism in some of them
There is a low number of faculty from other communities

Course Curriculum Overview:

The curriculum of my course is pretty good and helpful with proper teaching about the subject, it is also helpful for real-life work and activities with proper hands-in skills teaching and theoretical knowledge. But there is a big setback that it is not recognised by the Indian council of agricultural research(ICAR). Recognition by the ICAR will have a big boost in the course and department

Good Experience

Remarks:

The college management is very polite and kind. Overall, I think that I finally know why it is one of the top colleges. It has made such a positive impact on me and given me the confidence to face the real world. It has taught me that being timid and shy is of no use. The fees are feasible even for common people and faculties are well trained. It got all what it needs to be a good college and yes it is. I would recomment it to everyone.

Melisa Kharbyngar's Review On St. Edmund's College, Shillong

To be honest i applied only in St Edmunds for my Bachelors and even Masters because it was my first preferrence as i wanted to persue Social Work and there are other colleges too that offers bsw/msw but for me i preferred St Edmunds because they provide quality education right from the infrastructure to curricular activities to clubs which the students come up by themselves to workshops,seminars we get alot of opportunities to excel but at the end it depends on the student if they're willing to grab the opportunity. Also i wanted to study abroad for MSW to gain exposure but due to my health condition i cannot study abroad so i sticked to Edmunds since its really good. The admission process is quite easy and its eligible for students from various field ..Cuet marks are required but are mostly merit based. My admission process was easy since i secured high percentage I did not have to go through any interviews or exams and after paying the provisional fee to secure the seat i got the admission....Read More
