I am absolutely satisfied because of faculty members but placements are not offered here.
Placements: No roles are offered in the language course. But one can appear in placement programs that are arranged by the commerce department. Many students get jobs or can do internships in reputed companies and startups. If one have elective subjects like journalism, the professor will guide where one can apply for internships.
Infrastructure: The college library is good. One can actually come to the library and read books or can watch educational videos. Classrooms are huge. Wi-fi is not available for students. You can have pizza, burger, puri sabji, various fruit juices, tea, and coffee in the college canteen. The food is amazing. You can participate in various sports tournament like chess, football, volleyball, etc.
Faculty: Teachers are like friends in our college. They always try to help the students even after college. They also arrange some educational programs and special lectures. Apart from the college lectures, special tutorial classes are arranged by professors. Syllabus is very modern and exams are pretty tough. But 90% of students manage to pass.
Other: In this course, you have to write a desertion paper. That experience will help in the master's degree. Apart from that, if anyone wants to pursue his / her career in print media, this course will provide you with the knowledge of bookmaking.

Review of St. Xavier's College Kolkata.
Placements: Around 50% of the students got placed. The lowest salary offered is Rs. 10,000 per month, the highest salary offered is Rs. 50,000 per month, and the average salary offered is Rs. 25,000 per month. The average salary is decent but should be better. NGOs should come and give internships to the students.
Infrastructure: Research work facilities are available. A good library and quality teaching are provided. The hostel is good and keeps students cheerful, and this college provides the best quality facilities. Give yourselves a chance to improve your skills.
Faculty: The faculty members are very helpful. They have rich knowledge about the subjects. You should go and learn about the subjects from them. Not only of subjects but your knowledge of various aspects will also be increased. The kind, gentle and helpful nature of the faculty will ensure your mental and academic health in a steady mode. The curriculum is very much relevant, and it helps us in further studies. It will make your postgraduation course a lot easier, and you will find all the topics taught in your under-graduation course.
Other: It enriches the knowledge about the subjects, and it helped me to develop my knowledge vividly. The evaluating system should be better. This college has separate sections for all the programs. The Bengali department is also a part of this. It has its own society, BLS, Bengali Literary Society, where not only the students of Bengali department but also all the students of the college can participate and enjoy a memorable year together.
