Xavier's consistency in producing quality students continues.

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.

A very good and vibrant college.

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.

It has a good canteen. The woods are the best place to sit, and all Xavierites will agree with me.

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.

Review of St. Xavier's College, Mumbai.

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 economi...

Vibrant college with a good return on investment.

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.

Life at St. Xavier's College.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is old, and although it is beautiful because of its legacy and historical relevance, there is no air conditioning in most classrooms other than 2 or 3. The canteen food is very good, with great variety in all kinds of cuisines. Most hostel students rely on the canteen for all meals.

Great campus life and networking with some amazing and inspiring people.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is great. It was built in 1900. It is still maintained well. There are labs for each department. However, the AC is available only in the lab, not in classrooms. Wi-Fi is there for both students and teachers separately. The library is huge and you can find rare books to research. The canteen in the college provides all types of cuisine at an economical price.

St. Xavier's College Mumbai.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is well-designed and includes ramps and lifts for specially-abled people. It sometimes gets congested during break time. The hostel is available only for boys in odd years and not for girls. The area around the college is slightly expensive, with PG prices starting from Rs.14,000 for double sharing.

Worth the money and the faculty, placements are nice if you're well-prepared.

Infrastructure: Department facilities are quite good, where we have a Bloomberg terminal for further study. The hostel facility is average, and since it is inside the college campus is worth the money. The college tests are pretty effective in helping us prepare for interviews and will greatly benefit internships.

The college has many events, so college life never feels dull.

Infrastructure: The campus has a good canteen and two libraries: a lending library and a reference library. The libraries have a vast collection of books. Sports facilities include basketball, volleyball, and hockey, among others. There is also an annual sports competition. The college has many clubs and societies, most of which are student-run. Applications for these clubs open every year. Some of the clubs include the Student Council, Social Service League, and World Performing Arts.

The college has its merits and demerits.

Infrastructure: There are no ACs, but the overall infrastructure is nice. The projector works fine. The Gymkhana is nice, and the sports in college are plentiful. The library has its own vibe; it feels like you are studying in Hogwarts, but the books are outdated in many aspects. The lending and reference libraries are two different libraries.

Great place to find a good career if you’re willing to sacrifice college life.

Infrastructure: All the classrooms are top-notch with smart facilities, and the library contains tens of thousands of books where we can find almost anything that we look for. Although the Wi-Fi facilities offered were bad, and we rarely got network on campus. The mess and canteen are very good, offering food from all parts of India. The hostel is mediocre, and sports and games are not given importance; the college doesn’t even have a football court of its own.

Absolutely satisfied because of faculty, infrastructure, education, fests, etc.

Infrastructure: There are facilities like libraries, laboratories, a canteen, boys' hostel, church, grounds, college hall, gymkhana, and classrooms available for students. The quality of food available in the canteen is very good. The non-teaching staff is kind and helpful here.
