I am satisfied with the facilities, culture, good infrastructure, and placements.
Placements: At least 60% of the students were placed in renowned companies. Since I was from the JMC department, many got placed in news agencies. The cost of the course was 1.90 Lacs for a 3-year course. It had all the amenities, worth every penny. Top roles include Journalism, PR, news agencies, and content.
Infrastructure: Our college provided Wi-Fi connection, Apple ecosystem, Mac computers, SMART class, a projector, AV room, and each room had 2 ACs. Also, a canteen that served good food. Sports and games were also there. Shri Shikshayatan ticks all the facilities. Not to forget great teachers who guide all along.
Faculty: Teachers were great, helpful, and knowledgeable. Course was very relevant and made students future-ready. Semester exams were not difficult, exactly what a student needs. Almost all the students passed with flying colors in each semester.
Other: I chose this course because I am great at speaking as well as writing, which is important for journalism. As far as my knowledge goes, everything was good. Events were amazing and we had a fest known as Shrijan.

Love the learning and life experience that this college is still teaching me.
Placements: Placements for our course are pretty average. Most of the companies that come for recruitment are Kolkata-based small forms. Almost 20-30% of students got placed among 100%. Roles offered are writers, marketing bizops, associates, and journalists.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is not that great. It just has a building as campus has no ground or anything of that sort. Classrooms have good infrastructure. Every room has an air-conditioner and projector. We have a separate yoga room and game room. We also have a room for small events to be conducted. Washrooms are pretty clean and hygiene is maintained properly. We have our separate Mac lab and a computer lab. The quality of food in the canteen is really good. We have a separate medical chamber.
Faculty: Teachers are pretty helpful, funny, and reliable. Each professor is very qualified and a journalist has worked at a particular renowned media house. The course is very much relevant till today. It also makes students industry-ready by making them work on practical projects like making a newspaper, writing articles, creating a news bulletin, making documents, building a website, and many other practical projects. Semester exams are pretty much the same as other colleges like it happens after six months of interval. The passing percentage is 40% for each paper.
Other: This course is very much practical rather than just building as a book worms. It helps us to build practical knowledge about media, and the impact of media on today's society. Also how media have developed and its integration into society. People's life and many other such things. Including more and more practical work and not just one project per semester would improve the variability of this course. We do have small events and fests according to society and also we have a college fest Srijan. Different societal activities like dance, drama, singing, film, photos, sports, debate, consulting, and many more are conducted.

I had a decent experience in this college.
Placements: For our department, there were only limited placement opportunities. Around 20-25% of students get placed in our course. Most of the students find internship opportunities at the college. The average package offered for our course was 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies were Storyemedia, Times India, India Magazines, etc.
Infrastructure: Our course department has facilities like a library, Wi-Fi, canteen, water cooler, cleaned toilets, etc., in the college. The college campus was fully secured. Food served in the canteen was good to eat and offered at reasonable prices. The college hostel was also good. Food at the hostel mess was also good.
Faculty: Faculty in our course were very experienced in the field of teaching. Most of the teachers have been teaching here for the last 5-10 years. All of them were qualified and knowledgeable. They supported students in all possible situations. Exams were not hard to pass. The course curriculum was relevant.

Our college has an amazing infrastructure and faculty members. Placements are not so good.
Placements: Placements for our course are not adequate. Companies visit our college for placements are not appropriate for our job roles. However, many students got an internship here.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college was the best. There is a huge computer lab for practicals with pre-installed Mac devices. The library has almost a hundred different sections of books. We had a canteen that had CCD, and it was spacious enough.
Faculty: Teachers in our college were very helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. Our faculty members quality was top-notch. Our course was very industry-friendly as top industrialists visit our college as guest lecturers. Semester exams are a little difficult and tricky. The pass percentage was almost 90%.

Our college does not provide placements.
Placements: Placements are not available in our college. It is one of the most disciplined colleges under Calcutta University, but there are no placement opportunities for our course. This college is not for students who are looking for scholarships.
Infrastructure: Canteen is average, but we are not allowed to use phones in college. Labs are average, but classrooms have air-conditioners which are also average according to the fees we pay. I am not highly satisfied with the infrastructure of our college. It is average, but it is clean.
Faculty: Teachers here are helpful, and our HOD is very helpful. Teachers have great knowledge and oratory skills. They try to help us with every information they have but not all of them. They are extremely supportive and help to uplift our confidence.

You question about the process two months back.and this is possible that you must have got to know this by visiting the place or through other resources. You were to apply online when the online application process started and your eligibility was only 12th.
