Insightful and worth every penny.
Placements: The internships are mandatory and a part of the course curriculum. The college assists in setting up the internships for all the 60 students. These are with the leading PR agencies in the country. Agencies like Genesis Burson-Marsteller, MSL, Text 100, Adfactors, Cohn & Wolfe are some of the names that recruit the students year on year. After your internship, most of the students are given a pre-placement offer by the firms. They have the choice to accept or reject the same. Further, at the end of the course, the placements are arranged for those remaining. The entire process is handled meticulously by the course head.
Infrastructure: St. Xavier's college is known for its campus. XIC classrooms are fully air-conditioned. Each classroom is supported by a technical room to assist with the audio-visual requirements during the lecture sessions. The classrooms have the projectors, a computer with internet, and speakers set up. There's a resourceful library with books across genres, 3 IT labs each with a host of computers set up for the students to work on their assignments or for research, a girl's common room to rest, a meeting room, and a faculty lounge room. The canteen of St. Xavier's college is perhaps the best among all the colleges in Mumbai with a variety of snacks and meal options. While the lunch thali isn't quite delectable, other items such as chaat, pasta, pav bhaji, south Indian, etc. are a delight.
Faculty: The course head Mr Chawla works tirelessly to ensure that the course runs smoothly. The rest of the faculty are industry experts who take the time to conduct the sessions. Each module is handled by an expert from that sphere of the communication. This enables the students to get diverse views and perspectives and benefit from the knowledge imparted by the varied set of professors. Not to forget, the support staff who are extremely warm and welcoming and approachable at all times for any needs.
Other: Istoria - the annual event is put together by the PR and Corp Comm students and gives them hands-on experience in organising an event.

Q:   What are some helpful tips for students starting their first year at Xavier Institute of Communications?
A: 
  1. First thing I would like to say that congratulations now you are feeling that you are on the top of the world but no you have to maintain 75% attendance otherwise you will loose 5marks which is very crucial.
  2. Stay away I repeat stay away from the people who wants you to join 'lobby' . If you like politics and quarrels then okay otherwise stay away from it.
  3. In Xavier's there will be enemies more than friends so choose wisely.
  4. Don't forget your id card ever.
  5. Make good friends enjoy the college life but don't forget to attend classes.
  6. Don't be the class CR few you don't want to get involved in lobbies.
  7. Xavotsav is really very attracting I know but trust me it's worth your time and money and respect. People loose their self respect to get posts in xavotsav it's not at all worth it.
  8. Must try canteen ka coffee. :)
  9. Try to take down all the notes given in the class and before semester try to arrange all other classes notes and study those mainly you will get good marks.
  10. Don't trust anyone blindly and don't run behind the posts of xavotsav.
  11. Carry your self and be confident. Fathers are really good if you are not breaking any rules like that.

Yes, you may get an admission provided, you clear all other criteria. But, I would suggest, since you already have 3 years of work experience, have 2 more years of work experience, and then opt for executive MBA. It is a suggestion, the final call is your. Hope this helps.
