Aishwarya Ghosh's Review On Seth Anandram Jaipuria College, Kolkata

The college is located in an ideal spot north Kolkata, with all its litttle nooks and corners, and delicious eateries is a haven for students. In all honestly, while there is no particular area the college is exceptional in, I think it is enough that it

The college doesn't require any specific entrance exam admission is awarded on the basis of marks scored in Class 12 exams. There is a minimum cut-off that is required to apply, and that's all this is one of the few colleges in Kolkata that offer the Mass Communication course hence I picked this college.

The college does not have a system of offering hostels there are plenty of PG's in an around the college that offer decent living arrangements at a nominal price.

There is no official alumni association, but the senior student network is, on the whole, a very supportive and helpful group during the initial few weeks of college, almost all freshers have a hard time adjusting, so it falls upon the seniors to make this transition a smooth phase for them. Personally, I have greatly benefited from my interaction with senior students, both from my department, and other departments of the college.

The faculty is excellent they are extremely proficient in their field of study, and toil hard to impart knowledge to students, year after year. The course structure is, of course, in keeping with the syllabus prescribed the University of Calcutta, so it i
