I am satisfied with the infrastructure.
Placements: Our university provides over 90% placement for our course, and 70% of students are placed. Nearly 78% of students interned with Millennium Post, Echo of India, and others. Over 45% of students get placements through campus drives, with salary packages ranging from 1.5 to 4 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure at my university is good. The library has both digital and traditional resources, and the students have access to smart classrooms and labs. The college provides Wi-Fi access and has AC facilities. The hostel provides three types of rooms with both attached and common washrooms. Each room has a dressing table, washbasin, bed, reading table, chair, and almirah. The food quality is really good, and they provide three meals for the students. College authorities take immediate action if someone gets sick. The campus has a big playground and a basketball court. Certain indoor games, like carrom and chess, are also available. Our university also provides a well-equipped gym facility.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and cooperative. They are highly qualified with high skills in teaching. The English department makes students industry-ready by increasing their communication skills and global connectivity. The semester exams are moderate, and the pass percentage is 50%.
Other: I have always had a great interest in English literature. I chose to study English at St. Xavier's University, Kolkata, because it is a global language that can enhance my communication skills in my personal and professional life. The university offers a wide range of career opportunities and supports personal growth. I also want to learn other languages such as French and German, which will be useful in the future. The university organizes two fests each year and awards scholarships based on semester results. It also offers a variety of extracurricular activities and inter- and intra-sports.

It is an awesome college, and I recommend students to take admission to this college.
Placements: Few students got the highest job that is for civil services, and about 70% of the students from our course got placed. The salary package offered in our course ranges between 1.2-3.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Amazon, HGS, Tech Mahindra, Cognizant, Karvy, etc., visit our campus for placements. Few students from our course got an internship at the college.
Infrastructure: Our college provides facilities like Wi-Fi, modern classrooms with a projector and other necessary equipment and a full-fledged library. It does not provide a hostel. Mess, canteen and medical facilities are good. There is a huge playground for recreational activities. The infrastructure of our college is good with a centralised air-conditioning system. Our college also provides snooker and table tennis. Our college conducts outdoor games with a lot of activities.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are good. They are well-versed in multi-languages. They are well-qualified. Faculty members in our college are helpful and friendly. They help us in our final exams, and they guide us for the project works. It is a prestigious college in Kolkata.
Other: I have chosen this course to complete graduation and get eligible for the civil service examination.

Modern facilities and improved technologies.
Placements: Those students who were willing to do so were placed. Most of them opted for higher studies, but even then the university provides ample placement opportunities. Some of them got placed in Cognizant, TCS, and other companies as well. Overall, it rests upon how good the student is.
Infrastructure: There is no Wi-Fi available. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with neat desks. The corridors are CCTV monitored, but the classrooms are exempted since it respects the privacy of the students. The campus is air-conditioned, and the students can change the setting anytime and anywhere.
Faculty: The teachers are extremely knowledgeable. They are well versed in their choice and field of studies, and they employ a holistic and relational way of teaching. They engage creatively with the text and always strive towards a better understanding of subjects.
Other: The only other thing that I would advise is to never avail yourself of the university bus since it is costly and has no real benefit other than to extort money from their students.
