Top college of commerce in Kolkata, GCCBA.

Placements: About placements, the college provides them in the last year of completion of our degree. The placement opportunities are quite low but valuable. Companies like EY, Airtel, etc. come to offer placements. The package is around 4–5 LPA. However, if you are a bright student, you can expect more.

It provides an excellent placement cell.

Placements: Accounting and Finance have more placement and high-package opportunities than Marketing and Sales. For B.Com and BBA, there are good opportunities. Actively hiring partner Big 4 firms and many MNCs. B.Com and BBA are really very effective at Shri Shikshayatan College. Almost every student gets the opportunity to secure an internship. At SSC, there is a policy of one student, one internship, so one can only do one internship at a time. After getting an internship, if the student rejects it, they...

It's morning college, so if you don't mind walking up and going to a class at 6:15 AM.

Placements: The college does not provide any placement opportunities. We are told that the college used to provide us with internship posts last semester, but since most of the students did not take up the opportunity, they have stopped providing the internship option altogether. No assistance in placements at all.

It is a quiet decent college.

Placements: It does not provide placement as it is just a normal graduation course. The internships that the students get are often part of the curriculum, and they are paid for by the students. Mostly, the students studying here are preparing for the civil services.
