Xavier's consistency in producing quality students continues.
Placements: St. Xavier's is known for its placement cell. Top MNCs and Indian companies like EY, KPMG, BCG, Deloitte, DE Shaw, and ICICI offer jobs with good fresher salaries. The highest package offered is 24 LPA, and the lowest offered is 3 LPA. On average, a salary of 5-6 LPA is offered. Companies like Morgan Stanley, Zomato, Salesforce, and Hindustan Unilever also offer internships and later a PPO through the placement cell. Top roles offered are analyst, consultant, relationship manager, talent acquisition HR, marketing, and business development.
Infrastructure: College is well-equipped with 2 multi-media rooms, 2 libraries, a multi-cuisine canteen, 2 computer labs, a Fintech lab, and a basketball and volleyball court, along with 60 classrooms. The college also has very well-equipped and accessible washrooms for the physically challenged. There is an in-built campus hostel just for boys. Student Wi-Fi is available, but with very less connectivity. There is also a gymkhana for exercise, yoga, and indoor sports.
Faculty: Most of the teachers are quite qualified with Masters or a Ph.D. degree. My course professors are quite approachable. Due to the autonomous nature of the college, the course is quite frequently updated with a moderate to high level of difficulty in the exam paper. The assignments assigned often include primary data collection, interviews, field visits, extensive research, and paper presentation seminars. All these factors make students industry-ready to face any pressure. The pass percentage is 95%.
Other: Xavier's is known for its campus life, as it has almost 15 fests and 25+ extracurricular and academic committees, making it a place for any and every person and the talent they possess. Fests like Malhar, IMG, and Ithaka induce an interest in the industry in students along with fun. I majored in Economics and Sociology. These two subjects helped me understand the why and how of human nature, their relationship with money and spending patterns, opening the doors of social impact consulting for me.

A very good and vibrant college.
Placements: Since Data Science and AI come under the IT sector, jobs related to the course are similar to IT and CS, but more focused on analyst, data scientist, and AI/ML roles. The highest package here was up to 20–24 LPA, but as always, it depends on the students. Internships start from the 3rd year.
Infrastructure: They provide a boys’ hostel but not a girls’ hostel. There is a good canteen that has every type of food basically. AC classrooms and labs, a good library, and a playground are available. They give students a mail ID and Wi-Fi as well. They are strict with attendance. The college gives a good historic vibe.
Faculty: Since I haven't met all the faculty yet, but those I have met already are really good and helpful. Precisely, they are very qualified and knowledgeable, and the main thing is they teach really well. I had almost all my lectures interactive. Exams are conducted fairly. The difficulty of exams depends. They are strict with attendance, so be careful and mindful.
Other: There are plenty of fests and campaigns happening almost every week. Y’all are free to participate. It’s a good crowd though. There are ECC activities to collect points, which are compulsory but also fun.

It has a good canteen. The woods are the best place to sit, and all Xavierites will agree with me.
Placements: B.Com BAF, BMS, and MBA courses have a 0-1% placement chance. B.Com is nice as the timings are in the evening, so one can also pursue another professional course or do a part-time job. Many students pursue CS or CA, prepare for government exams, or prepare for the CAT exam. It’s helpful and great, but traveling is quite hectic as it’s an evening college.
Infrastructure: Okay, not that great. Hostels are for boys only. It's okay, but they should have hostels for girls as well, as many students come from different states. It’s difficult to find a safe place to stay. It’s also hard for parents to send their child to a completely different place.
Faculty: Teachers are nice, but the VP and the principal are not cooperative with students. Even when parents come to meet them, they do not resolve doubts or queries properly or provide any suggestions or solutions. However, teachers are more cooperative than the VP and the principal. They listen to our doubts and suggest necessary solutions.
Other: Overall, it is a nice college. Half of the time, there are fests going on, which causes a shortage of attendance among students.

Overall, the college is amazing.
Placements: Placements are nice, with a wide range of companies coming to campus to look for applicants and provide a decent package. It's a good college, and by being in Mumbai, it offers a wide range of companies coming to look for their new recruits. Definitely a good college.
Infrastructure: Excellent infrastructure and hostel if you compare with other colleges. Clean drinking water, electricity, and all the necessary amenities are provided. The building and hostel are all clean and nicely maintained, and the food is not bad, it's better than other places I have tried.
Faculty: Teachers here are well-qualified and have strong subject knowledge. They know how to teach in a way that students can easily understand, and they are very helpful at every step. Such cooperative teachers are rare in colleges, which is a good sign.
Other: It’s totally value for money in terms of studies, campus life, extracurricular activities, and networking with a lot of students from different places. One should aim for a college that gives maximum extracurricular opportunities, and this place is the one.

Review of St. Xavier's College, Mumbai.
Placements: The college has a placement cell where students need to register. Companies visit the college to conduct interviews. The college does not provide internships. Depending on the course, the salary packages offered by the companies vary. We have prominent companies like Google and others coming to our college for placements, but it's primarily for final-year students.
Infrastructure: I chose botany for my M.Sc. because it's my favorite subject. The geology faculty members at this college are outstanding and have great knowledge. All professors are well-qualified, and their teaching methods are excellent. Term exams were conducted on time and were easy to pass due to thorough preparation. There is no hostel facility at the college as it is situated in a prime location in Jabalpur, where many coaching classes and affordable hotels and PG accommodations are available at economical rates that are hard to find elsewhere.
Faculty: The course covers all the essential aspects needed for industry purposes. There are two Continuous Internal Assessments (CIAs) and one end-semester exam. The first CIA is written, while the second involves objective-type questions, projects, or presentations. The end-semester exam totals 60 marks, and students need to obtain a combined total of 40 marks to pass the subject in that semester. The faculty at the college are experts in their respective fields, most holding doctorate degrees. They are always helpful and ready to answer any questions when asked.

Vibrant college with a good return on investment.
Placements: St. Xavier's College Mumbai has its own placement cell. The highest package (for BMS) is Rs. 30,00,000 per annum. The average package is 6 LPA - 7 LPA. For internships, companies do come to the college but they have very few openings so students search for internships on their own. Some companies that come for the placements are Brain and Company, J. P Morgan, McKinsey, Delloite, PwC, etc.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are good, but since it is an old building. Some classes aren't well maintained. The library is amazing, with a vast array of books of all kinds. The canteen food is good, but a bit price. There is a boys hostel in the college. Students do get access to Wi-Fi, but it isn't available everywhere.
Faculty: Faculty members are exceptional. They are all very approachable and quite good at teaching. They are graduates from some of the top universities and have a lot of experience. The course curriculum is extensive and relevant to the current job requirements. The college is academically rigorous. The exams are a bit difficult.
