Nani Bhattacharya Smarak Mahavidyalaya has a very good collection, especially for arts students.

Placements: I am Hasrat Ansari, and an ex-student of Nani Bhattacharya Smarak Mahavidyalaya. In 2022, I started my first year of college with many other students. My course is B.A. In my college, there are no extra fees except for the exam and registration. There, I met the best teachers of art. They are really good and sweet and always help students. In my batch, we have almost 30 percent of students placed from college. The total package is a minimum of Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 15,000 for the B.A. course.

Infrastructure: As we are all arts students, we get some facilities like a library and some facilities for other honours, like a lab and a testing room. For sports, we also have a club where we have many assets to play and practice. In our college, we have a canteen in good condition and very clean, and the food items are very healthy and tasty. Our college is very disciplined and clean, and we maintain hygiene.

Faculty: In our college, we have very good and helpful teachers. They are always helping us, specifically during exam time. The quality of teaching is really good. Our college and teachers make many students' lives and allow them to achieve their goals. Our teachers make many engineers, teachers, sportsmen, computer experts, etc. There is no difficulty in the exam, just because of good teaching and the best understanding between teachers and students.

Other: If your goal is to be an arts teacher and a sportsman, a computer expert, etc. Then I recommend visiting Nani Bhattacharya Smarak Mahavidyalaya.

Bachelor of Arts (B.A. Hons.) - Batch of 2028

Offered by Darjeeling Government College

3Placements3Infrastructure4Faculty3Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

One of the best overall colleges in the mountains.

Placements: The general number of individual placements is high, but the college does not provide direct placement facilities. Although students have a good chance of being selected by multiple companies, the college itself is not directly involved in organizing placements.

Infrastructure: There is a lack of lab infrastructure in the Geography department. Although it is one of the best departments in the college. Other science-related departments have better labs and infrastructure. The hostel facilities for girls are better since there are no hostels for boys. But the girls' hostels are better and provide decent food and structure.

Faculty: The teaching quality is very good. Professors are helpful as well as well-qualified in their respective departments. The college does make students industry-ready by encouraging the teaching of extra subjects that prepare students to face the real world. Exams depend on the student. If a student attends classes regularly and is attentive in lectures, he or she will pass easily.

Other: I chose geography because it is one of the best subjects to study at this college. The geography department here is one of the best in North Bengal.
