Really good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Around 50% of the students from my college are placed in my course. The average package is around 4 LPA. I don't know much about that but many top companies are engaged with my college. Every single student from my college got an internship from my college for the betterment of the students and knowledge about their future studies. I don't have any role in my college yet but I will.

Infrastructure: There are many facilities available in my college. Every single thing, like classrooms are well maintained, and they do regular renovations in college. College canteen is also quite good, and the prices are so less. Many games and sports facilities are also available in my college with skilled teachers.

Faculty: Teachers are so good and knowledgeable about their stream and other streams also. They are so kind and helpful also. Curriculum is relevant, and it makes students industry-ready for sure. There's no difficulty in exams for me just because of the teachers. I bet whoever attends the lectures and listens to teachers also passes with good marks.

Other: I am always interested in commerce background, although my dream is to crack UPSC and be an IPS officer but I can manage everything. There's nothing left for the people of my department for my opinion to improve anything about college or course. They did everything well. College events are my favourite ones because they invite many celebrities and famous singers to my college events and I love to enjoy.

Bachelors of Arts (B.A.) - Batch of 2027

3Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Overall a good college to take admission and quite friendly environment.

Placements: Almost 30% of students got placed from our college and placement nowadays at our college is quite good. I will recommend this college to any student who has a doubt about admission to this college. 98% of students this year did internships as it's necessary now.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available to us. Library is open to us every time even on vacation to help a student get help in their course and finish their syllabus on time. Canteen food is quite nice but not healthy to have on a daily basis.

Faculty: Teachers are well-behaved and polite with us. We have a friendly connection with our teachers. Semester exams are quite difficult but we prefer notes from our teachers and clear semesters. The passing percentage is not so high because of the toughness of the exam it's around 60%. Faculty members are quite helpful to students and also friendly.

Other: The best thing is I can prepare for other gov exams as it's not a very difficult course. Fests happen quite often and scholarship is quite good.

Well-structured course with vibrant campus life.

Placements: I was part of the B.Com honors, batch 2022-2025 at City College. Around 50% of students in our course are successfully placed through campus recruitment. The highest package offered is 2.40 LPA, while the lowest package offered is around 1.50 LPA. Top recruiting companies included Deloitte, PwC, Ernst & Young and KPMG. About 30 percent of students secured internships during the pre-final year. The most common role is accountant.

Infrastructure: The course and department are well-equipped with modern facilities that support both academic and research activities. Classrooms are spacious and fitted with boards. The central library is a major highlight, offering a vast collection of books, journals, and e-resources with quiet reading zones and computer systems for student use.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good with a focus on practical learning. Teaching quality is good with a focus on conceptual clarity. The curriculum is industry-relevant. Semester exams are too difficult with pass percentage of around 80-90 percent.

Other: I pursued B.Com honors, batch 2022-2025. I chose this course for its strong foundation in finance and accounting. The course is well-structured, but more practical exposure and internships would help. The campus has great fest, crowd, and good connectivity.

Recruiters are good, and you can easily secure placements through this college.

Placements: 75 percent.30,000 is the highest, 25,000 is the lowest, and 28,000 is the average. At least 65 percent is required for accountants, audit officers, or tax officers. There are many opportunities in B.Com Honours, like chartered accountants. You must be qualified with 60 percent for an MBA, and having extra skills will help.

Infrastructure: The following are available in our college: labs, a common room, a sports ground, a library, and classrooms. There are many benefits to this college. The sports quota is also available for those students who are really good at sports. So, be punctual now.

Faculty: All teachers are well-qualified, with Ph.D., double M.Com, and double graduation degrees. They always help through extracurricular activities and are helpful in launching students into the industry. All teachers are strict in the examination hall, so it's difficult, but the passing percentage is 36 percent.

Other: Join this college and make your career bright.

I’m enough satisfied with the college and its faculty members.

Placements: Like 60% of students get placed. They generally get a package of like 1.4 LPA. Generally, the financial institutions come to provide placements. No such internship is given. Roles like accountant or assistant accountant are offered to the students of the college.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is quite decent. There is a big building with a small garden area in the middle. The classes are good enough to provide comfort to like sixty to seventy students. A nice computer lab is also there. There are enough computers for the students.

Faculty: The faculty members or the teachers were highly qualified and extremely knowledgeable. They generally make learning easy, making studies easier for us. They are also very helpful and guide the students to their need. The course I did was relevant and I got to learn many things. The semester exams are quite difficult.

Other: I chose this course as I have an interest in this commerce background. The best thing about the course is that we got to learn the financial position of any company and what can be done to improve it. Along with the education, the college also conducts events which are quite interesting.

City College - The heart of Amherst Street

Placements: There are a total of 28 students in the batch of zoology Honors. There is no package of course. Basically some companies visits once for recruitment but that too just for the position such as sales agent. Internship is available but that is a part of the curriculum and no stipend is provided for that.

Infrastructure: The college has a huge library and on top of that each department has their own departmental library. Labs are not well maintained or established and no wifi facility is available, classrooms are ok. The canteen provides food at reasonable prices, medical facilities are not available.

Faculty: The teacher are really very supportive and helpful regarding studies. They provides quality notes and explains a topic quite well. The curriculum is very relevant as it will help in future to get jobs in many sectors such as forest service, zoo services, marine biologist, forensic sciences and aquaculture. The exams are difficult to pass .The passing percentage is 34.

Other: This course provides opportunities in diverse fields such as forest service, zoo services, marine biologist and forensic science. The college lacks cleanliness and hygiene along with that lift is absent which becomes a problem for climbing 4th floor. A lot of events and co curricular activities such as debate, quiz and inter college tournament are hosted every year and every year Sangrila is hosted for 5 days in the month of October.
