More than a campus: The Presidency University experience

Likes

The university is well-maintained. The campus is aesthetically pleasing. There are so many clubs to engage the students outside the curriculum of the syllabus and helps in the holistic development of the students.
The Faculty here is quite good. The professors are highly qualified and helpful in their approach, making it easier for the students to understand concepts.
The course curriculum is well-suited for the present day market demands. With compliance to the NEP, the university has charted out an effective syllabus to make the students ready for the outside world.

Dislikes

The Placement Cell, though it is there in the campus, should be more effective in giving placements to the students and to explore various other opportunities.

Student Snaps:

Admission:

I had applied to other colleges under CU, got selected and did get admitted to Lady Brabourne College but I chose Presidency Univeristy over other colleges because of its rich legacy in the history of SouthAsia. Presidency University which was formerly known as the Hindu College has a decorated list of alumni, with the names of Satyajit Ray, Abhijit Banerjee, Amartya Sen, Swami Vivekananda, Jyoti Basu, Jadunath Sarkar, R.C. Majumdar and so on. There is an entrance exam held, PUBDET for admission in the UG courses while for the PG courses PUMDET exam is available. The eligibility for UG courses are 12th pass with an aggregate of 75% minimum required for the board exams. The admission process takes place smoothly, without any hassle as the seniors help the students in case of a query and are really helpful in making the students understand the nuances of the admission process.

PRESIDENCY: THE DREAM LIFE

Likes

Affordability: One of the major reasons behind studying in Presidency is its bare minimum Couse fees. No other college provides such quality Couse in such price.
Quality study: The theoretical aspect we get our college and practical Sessons are very rare to find in other colleges.
Helpful Professors: Our determents' professors are genuinely helpful. We can reach then any time during college hours.

Dislikes

No upper limit of class duration: sometimes a class may end in 7 pm, which is sometime problematic though for the sake of learning its very much required.

Admission:

I have applied to other colleges also, like Asutosh, Xaviers , Bravon and got chances in all. But all of them have higher fees than Prsidency and poor(though there are few good faculties) faculty than presi. In all presidency seems the best combo for me, in terms of fees, education,campus life.

KALIMPONG TO KOLKATA: A BLEND OF LEARNING AND CITY LIVING.

Likes

The time spent in my college was transformative both academically and personally. The college faculty was one of the top tier to consider for the best academic results. While the curriculum was demanding , it verily prepared me for upcoming exams
Though my overall experience is a mix of highs and lows. I appreciated how the mentors guided me and helped me engage in different campus events. The faculty in Economics Department were knowledgeable , though their teaching styles varied.
As for the girls to boys ratio, I don't have the precise statistics .

Dislikes

On the flip side, I felt that there must be an improvement in the infrastructure particularly the labs and the library space.
The placement facility and internships chances are not really adequate. While the placement cell tried their best , the success for internships and placements was limited.
Sports and others activities are not given chances. The curriculum felt outdated and lacked new innovations and activities that would allow students to engage in other than academics

Admission:

I had applied to Delhi Universities, Lady Brabourne, Jadavpur University, Visva Bharati University and Presidency University. I got selected in all the given universities except Delhi Universities. I chose Presidency University amongst all of the colleges due to its prestige alumni and reputaution . Due to top cutoffs , I could not pass the Delhi University entrance exam.The admission process of my college is thorugh merit and entrance exams based.

Quality of Education was really up to the mark.
Spacious ground and auditoriums and halls
Lots of sports and cultural events organized.

Dislikes

Some of the professor can be difficult to deal with
No inter college sports fest held in my period
quality of teaching is not up to the mark.

Admission:

I had applied to and got confirmation from Xaviers College and Jadavpur University. I chose to go to Presidency Due to to its heritage and strong economics department and also due to its affordability. There is a competitive peer group and the location is a plus point. The eligibility reuires minimum of 60% in 10+2 for General category and 55% for SC/OBC/ST/PWD Maths has to be a mandatory subject ( for B,Sc Economics) THey accept admission through PUBDET though mine was direct admission due to COVID 19. The process of admission is to register for PUBDET then give the xam and then wait for merit list and finally if selected go for document verification. The cutoff ranges usually from 150 - 250.

Amazing life of college

Likes

In our university, no ragging is happened and seniors are also very gentle and helpful. Every student can give their opinion without any hesitation or without fear.There is a very strong bonding in the seniors and juniors.
Library faculty is very important.In our university there are two library, central and for arts. Both are standard. Students get a lot information from there. And also carry books from library. Reading area is also there.
Huge play ground in the middle of the university. Lots of playing option is there. And many tournaments will happen. Many fest and occasion will celebrate.

Dislikes

I think science faculty have to improve more.Because sometime students raise their voice for the lab features. So it's need to carefully handle by the higher authority of the university.
University is the great experience of the students. So everyone must be participate in the events.
Everyone has own decision but though please stop to smoking openly which somehow bothered others

Admission:

I don't applied for other colleges or universities. I gave PUBDET and get a chance to study in presidency. For it I don't feel any regret. In the university admission process is not so difficult. There are some basic rules for admission. Qualifying the PUBDET exam to admission. There are limited seat and also for reservation category. Three rounds are held for admission.

Presidency University: A hope of light but needs a lot of upgradation

Likes

Faculty: The faculties in Presidency University are one of best in West Bengal. They are all PhD holders from reputed universities in India
Environment: The environment in Presidency University is warming, charming and vibrant, making it a great institution for students
Hostel: Presidency University provides Hostel to girl students at very reasonable price and free shuttle service

Dislikes

Dirty politics in campus: The active politics often disturb regular studies of University
Few teacher prefers some specific students due to personal interest
University should conduct a separate PhD entrance exam not just relying on UGC NET

Admission:

1. The reason to choose Presidency University: There are mainly three reason to choose this University. Firstly, it is one of the Autonomuous university in the state. The teachers who teach the course also set the exam question paper, resulting better evaluation of the subject. Secondly, the course work is much more advance than other universities. They offer masters level courses at bachelors level. Also, since there are masters and PhD students in the department, interacting with them provides a lot of insight and practical experience about the subject. Finally, the infrasturce provided by University at afforable price is unbelivable. They provide free hostel to the needy students. And, for girls there is free shuttle service. The other colleges in the state do not provide such facility at all. 2. Other colleges: Apart from that I have applied for admission at Bethune college. But since Presidency University conducts a seprate exam at February and they usually complete the admission at the month of June and I got admitted in the counselling itself, I did not appear for counselling at Bethune college. Since I have got the best possible option at the very begining, I did not look for any other options available. 3. Application process: Presidency University do not conduct entrance test on their own, it is conducted by West Bengal Joint Board and examination is called PUBDET (for Bachelors) and PUMDET (for Masters). You have to keep an eye on the official website for any update on these exam. They usually conduct exam in the month of April or May but the application begins at January or February. The counselling would be conducted by the Joint Board. The application fee is Rs. 500 and if you are selected for counselling, you have to pay Rs. 500 to appear for the counselling. For more updated details, you should check official website of Presidency University and West Bengal Joint Board.
