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.

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.

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.

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.
