    A decent college for bachelors

    Verified Review
    College Infrastructure

    The college has good infrastructure with the school beside it. There are lot of events happening in the college every other day. Srijan is the main event. There are also inter-college fests that it represents. It provides seminars and various courses. placement is not that good. However, they have connects with the industry but the package offered is less. Canteen services are good enough. Bcom hons has only girls section and is in the morning. Teachers are well qualified and experienced.

    Academics

    The curriculum is designed in a good way and the teachers are also good and experienced. You have to make a final project on your interested field at the end of three years which is evaluated for 100 marks. Teachers are helpful enough and encourage students taking up projects and opportunities in and outside the college.

    Placements

    Placements include companies like Indigo and IBM. They provide decent package but timings could be odd. Average package is around 3lacs. Recently I had heard of Big four companies coming to the campus for placements in US tax field. This could be a good start for the students.

    Value for Money

    It was 50,000 per year including everything. The money could be said to be worth and helps one build it's personality.

    Campus Life

    The college ends early morning only and leaves less time to enjoy the campus life for the students. However, if one participates in the events, they get opportunities to live the campus life.

    Others

    It is a decent college for people to go to. Curriculum and courses are good to start a career with.

    College Infrastructure

    From spacious ac classrooms to cafe to basketball court to swimming pool to gym..the college has it all. The living spaces are clean and food hygienic. There's free WiFi. Classrooms are well used and maintained.

    Academics

    The curriculum depends on University under which the college functions. Although the teaching staff is amazing and makes subject easier to grasp. They even provided tally courses to us inclusive in the curriculum.

    Placements

    This facility was not offered to us, the students of b.com honours after the ug course. Hence the percentage of students placed or highest salary or the average package cannot be commented upon really.

    Value for Money

    Cost per year was more than INR 35,000 p.a. which increased every year. It is not worth paying such amounts for facilites which are not so necessary when you're attending a 6-10am ug course.

    Campus Life

    Location is extremely safe, in the heart of the city. Teachers, students and support staff are amazingly helpful and understanding.

    College Infrastructure

    Below average infrastructure. They share auditorium and the ground with their school under the same trustee. The WiFi never worked for us spaces are on an average clean. Libraries lack new collection. There is no sport centre

    Academics

    I studied bcomH. doesn't make anyone job ready. The curriculum has being going on from the ages. The marking scheme of the university remains static no matter which college you choose. They just want you to mug up things and puke it out on exams.

    Placements

    It's bad. I have not heard of anyone getting placed because of the college placement cell. The placement cell was very inactive. Girls got placed because of their talents and that too outside the college campus.

    Value for Money

    It costed very high. I regret paying that high amount for that college. I could have done much more from the time and money that I wasted on this college. Believe me I still regret it. They only believe in admitting as much number of girls as possible.

    Campus Life

    There is no college campus. It's just a building and they share the small ground and auditorium with the school under the same trustee. Location is safe. Teachers have their own attitude.

    Others

    Please don't choose this college. It looks fancy but you will end up wasting your parents hard earned money.

    Keeping aside the cons , i did enjoy my college life!

    College Infrastructure

    sure the infrastructure was good but it could do better .we had a canteen which was quite well maintained and the food was good. We had water coolers in every floor. Although the washrooms were quite clean in the morning it got really dirty by the end of the day .It was cleaned just once during the day.

    Academics

    The quality of education i am sure was better than most other colleges in kolkata but it could do better.Some of the faculties were really good and we could reach out to them as many times for any doubts and queries.

    Placements

    Nope ..not at all good. There is absolutely no scene of placements at all .To secure a job or an internship one has to apply for it externally as no companies visit the college for recruitment purposes.

    Value for Money

    1st year in 2015 it was around 40000 which went up to 44k in 3rd year.

    College Infrastructure

    My college did have the necessary facilities but there is a lot of space for improvement. Our college has a swimming pool which was well maintained and the living spaces were fairly clean. The infrastructure was fairly decent and well maintained

    Academics

    i had studied bachelor of arts. The teaching quality was good and friendly. As already mentioned the academics were average and there was no scope of job readyness involved. The teachers were really helpful which helped in academic development

    Placements

    There were no placement cells at the time i had passed out of the college. I hope they had improved on the placement cell. My course of BA didnt have any placement whatsoever involved as it is a graduation based course and not a job oriented course

    Value for Money

    The course cost was very cheap considering other colleges. It was worth the money.

    Campus Life

    Our extra curricular programmes were really involving and exciting too.

    Others

    Overall it was a wholesome experience.

    Academics

    I am studying for my honor degree and study at shikshayatan is fine . Have qualified teachers and education system is great here . They thrive to provide better lessons and life to there students and that is why i came here

    Placements

    Not so great in providing placements to there students and many students gets rejected . They only aims to give placements to there bright student's and dosen't focus on less ones. Many good companies don't come here

    Good option for Bcom.

    College Infrastructure

    The college has good infrastructure with well maintained classrooms and have clean spaces with hygienic cafeteria. The college has proper WiFi and it works fine too but the access is restricted. It has one of the largest libraries in Kolkata.

    Academics

    I did my Bcom Honours in Accounting and Finance from this college. It's a three year course. I was in the morning batch 2014-2017. The college falls under Calcutta University and the curriculum is regularly updated to match with the real world applicability.

    Placements

    The placement cell looks after the placement and does a good job at it. I was studying other courses too so did not apply for the placement but my friends did and we're satisfied with its placement activities.

    Value for Money

    I paid 50k approx for a year and compared to other colleges it's at standard rate. Compared to the other colleges it was worth the money

    Campus Life

    It has alot of activities students can engaged in. Not to forget it's annual fest Srijan. Teachers and staff are very supporting. It's in the main hub of the city and very safe.

    Except for the convocation ,it was fine.

    College Infrastructure

    The college is well equipped with all the necessary technologies and with Wifi. It's absolutely clean and well maintained. There's a separate team of people who look into all these matters relating to maintenance.

    Academics

    The teachers are quite good and help with the subject matter and provide nice notes to help the students. The teachers are well versed with economics , accountancy ,law, audit , mathematics and other subjects as and when required.

    Placements

    Mostly people who applied for placements were guided by HOD's in getting through the placements! Companies like PWC, Stock exchange of Kolkata were present. Students were taught how to make their CV's as well.

    Value for Money

    It costs approximately 1.2 lacs for 3 years of BCOM. I think I costs too much for a bcom degree. But if you want a hassle free and good environment for 3 years with good people SSY is the place you would want to be.

    Campus Life

    We have a swimming pool and a common room, a canteen and everything where students Hangout. The teachers are good except SM mam who was the HOD of commerce department .She puts false allegations on several students even costing there convocation.

    Others

    It was a nice experience except the convocation where we weren't allowed to enter the auditorium even though we were marked present due to the evil SM mam who over rode the principal's instructions and did not let us attend the convocation ceremony .

    Experience was good & I got to learn many things.

    College Infrastructure

    Infrastructure is not something to boast about but facilities are quite good. Full air conditioned classes ( a huge relief in summers to beat the heat of this city) . Smart boards and mics are available in every class but are not frequently used ( depends upon the teacher). There are all kinds of lab with necessary equipments. Library is well updated with latest editions of books to cater the needs of the students. Washrooms are clean,hygenic & well maintained.

    Academics

    I am a final year B.com (Accounting & Finance hons) student. Teaching quality is pretty decent. The curriculum is governed by Calcutta University so if we compare it with top univ. such as DU it is not at par with it . Although there have been recent changes in it but still there remains a scope for further improvement. The curriculum is not something which can make the students job ready as it does not stress on gaining practical exposure or knowledge , soft skills etc.

    Placements

    Cannot say much about this as I didn't sit for the placement due to some reasons. But what I know is there is a Placement Cell which provides assistance and guidance for students to sit in placements. Students got placements in companies such as PWC , SDC ,Delloite, Omnifim Solutions , Decathlon from my batch i.e. B.com hons in Accounting & Finance 2020 batch. Cannot tell about the past records.

    Value for Money

    The cost of my course was around Rs50,000 per year i.e 2 semsters. It charged collectively for both of them. The fees is very economical as compared to other pvt colleges offering the same course.It is value for money as facilities like full ac class & geniune teachers with such low price is not something which is provided in all colleges.

    Campus Life

    The best thing about this college is its location. Located in 11 lord Sinha Rd which is 3-4 min. away from Exide bus stop and Rabindra Sadan metro 2 of the most used and convenient means of tranport in this city. Students get to participate in various intra college events and clubs like Entrepreneurship Cell, Leadership Training Scheme focusing on building their skills in such areas. Teachers are friendly and approachable.

    Overall my experience in the college was memorable one.

    College Infrastructure

    After my 12th, i was confused to which college shall i join. I scored good in boards so i wanted to join the best college. Shri Shikshayatan was on my top list. So i thought of visiting the campus. It is a huge campus with huge ground. Classes are big in size which can easily accommodate around 150-200 studets. It has library which has all kinds of books. Computer room can accommodate many students at one go. It has swimming pool and canteen, my favorite part. There is no littering at all.

    Academics

    I was in Bcom Hons. I chose commerce in my 12. For bcom shri Shikshayatan is best college. It has very qualified teachers. They are more of a facilitator than a teacher. They are very friendly. The curriculum is also up to date. It helped me in my real life.

    Placements

    After college, i preferred to do MBA. I wanted to do MBA from a good college. And doing bcom from Shri Shikshayatan helped me in joining the best MBA college. As background does matter in MBA. College is very supportive in placement. U didn't sit for placements as i wanted to do further studies
