Short yet life-changing and thought-provoking experience from 2019 to 2022.

Placements: We were there during the time of the recent coronavirus pandemic, so comparatively, we had fewer students in the college. Justdial company came to recruit. About only 10 classmates went for the internship. Political Science itself did not attract many companies. However, we got to experience our own radio channel, Salesian Radio.

It's one of the best colleges in Darjeeling, West Bengal. 

Placements: Our college has a very good rate of placements as we get a chance to get placement through our college itself by many companies (not all get). Besides college placement itself, many have achieved great success. Many great personalities, like actor Denny Denzongpa, have passed out from this college.

College is very nice.

Placements: Up to 70 percent of students got placed from my course. Mostly students go to university after applying to this college and internship depends on your skills and I love this college. The internship depends on our skills. The top roles offered in our college are mostly unknown to me but I believe they provide decent and good placement.

The college is great if you can afford it.

Placements: 30 percent of students got placed maybe because the majority of the batch was in my course. I don't remember that but I think package offered is 20 LPA. Recruiting companies are Tata Capital, Reliance Group, and many more. 25 percent of students got internships. I don't know about the roles but they had offered a lot of students to be psychologists.

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.

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.
