Vidyasagar College played a great role in Bengal in the past and still plays in the present.
Placements: Vidyasagar College has a highly active placement cell and being a student from the English department of this college. The placement cell worked very good as our head of the department sir is a part of the placement cell himself. A few companies like Infosys come here every year to provide jobs to students. A few years ago a students from Vidyasagar College got the package of 12 LPA.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi service is available within the college premises, which is quite satisfying, and enjoy high-speed data. Canteen of this college has a large number of food on its menu at a quite low price. Though we don't provide any hostel facility. Once, we had hostel but later it was developed as the college's new building on Bidhan Sarani.
Faculty: Teachers from every department are very good and helpful. They take regular classes and provide notes and instructions to score well in the university exams. Departments like geography, zoology, psychology, English, and political science have great faculty members. They are highly qualified and provide a great experience of learning.
Other: Vidyasagar College provides a few scholarships to its students other than the Swami Vivekananda scholarship.

It is a good and affordable college under Calcutta University.
Placements: Nothing has been offered till now, but I know they offer placements because my older brother has graduated from the same college, and their batch got placement opportunities. I remember that they were asked to give interviews for TCS and some other companies. The college is good.
Infrastructure: I don't stay in any hostel or mess. The classrooms are big and airy, and our college has Wi-Fi. As I study English, I don't need labs, but for other subjects, I know labs are available. Our college does have a big library plus a gym. There is also a canteen.
Faculty: The teaching facility is quite good, and they are knowledgeable and helpful. As an English literature student, I feel that we are ready to face life as an adult. The exams are quite easy for those who have studied. The pass percentage is actually above 90%.

It is a very good institute with familiar teachers.
Placements: In India, maximum 10% of the people are in BA course with journalism and mass communication. Our college offers very good guidance over this and also organises internships in final semesters. They prepare us for internship works by technical guidance.
Infrastructure: Our college has a vast area with two parts of buildings in which one is the old one, and the other is new. It does not have very good infrastructure because of its age, but it has a canteen containing enough food. It organises sports events for all of the students, including girls.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful, and they arrange seminars for us. Qualified professors give us speeches regarding our semester. They also give us assignments related to our field by which we gain sufficient experience of work in radio recording, making journals and documentary film making.
Other: I have chosen this course because our course is applicable in every field of government jobs, and they offered scholarships also. Our college organises events like freshers, fests and religious events like Saraswati Puja, etc.

Good infrastructure and facilities.
Placements: Placements in our college were pretty good. TCS visited the campus to recruit the students, and 10% of the students from our class got placed. This is a huge percentage considering that the placements are not offered to regular courses. They also recruited other candidates from other departments. The average salary offered to the students was Rs. 15,000 which was sufficient for a beginner. The companies were keen on making the girls independent and gave us the time to complete our exams and then join the organisation.
Infrastructure: Quality of classrooms was pretty good. We also used the library to its full potential. The canteen provided healthy and tasty food at minimal prices. Classrooms were pretty clean and well ventilated. The canteen also maintained hygiene. Laboratories have good ventilation. The new classrooms had white walls which beautifully reflect the sunlight in classrooms. Projectors are available to show movies.
Faculty: The teachers were very co-operative and knowledgeable. They provided quality teaching using modern techniques. The student to faculty ratio was 10:1. The teachers formed small groups of students and decided to take the group under their tutelage to provide the students with special coaching after the slotted class. They encouraged us to write our own papers and were always ready to correct them for us and point out our mistakes.

Faculty and infrastructure are good.
Placements: As our course was related to English literature, they don't provide any placement facilities for us. But our college tried to provide placements for the students, and they invited MNCs like TCS where they selected about 15-20 students. Our college tries to go beyond their scheduled work and help students with various facilities.
Infrastructure: Our college has three buildings. One is the old structure, and the other two are comparatively new buildings. All these departments are divided according to the time schedule of classes, i.e., morning sessions, afternoon sessions, and evening sessions. Our college has well-equipped laboratories and two libraries. There are common rooms for boys and girls, and we also have huge and airy classrooms.
Faculty: Our faculty members are very efficient and helpful. Most of them have completed their PhDs, and they're teaching here for many years. They have a lot of experience. The course curriculum that the college follows is decided by Calcutta University as our college is affiliated to that University. Our college has been accredited with A+ by NAAC.
Other: Events like freshers' party, farewell party, annual sports day, intercollege competitions, and celebrations of various festivals are organised here.
