    Be cautious of your attendance at SXUK otherwise a good college for your media career.
    Placements: I am a B.A. mass communication student from semester 3. About 65-70% of students got placed. The highest package is 6 LPA, and the lowest salary is around 2.5 LPA. The average salary is nearly 4 LPA. Top recruiters included ABP News, The Times Group, Zee Media, and more PR firms. Around 70% of secured internships in companies like NDTV, Ogilvy, etc.
    Infrastructure: The mass communication department has well-equipped classrooms with smartboards, high-speed Wi-Fi, and an audio-visual MAC lab for media production and graphic design. There is also a studio, editing suite, and camera equipment. Hostel facilities come with clean rooms, 24X7 water, Wi-Fi, and electricity. The food in the mess is average but hygienic. They also provide special meals during special events. Facilities such as games, room, gym, and sports courts are also available. One drawback is that all rooms are non-AC rooms and in the Kolkata heat, they do not permit any kind of external installations like coolers.
    Faculty: Faculty members at SXUK are highly qualified, approachable, and have many industry backgrounds. Teaching quality is good with practical and theory-based learning. The curriculum is NEP 2020 aligned and covers journalism, advertising, PR, and communication skills that make students industry-ready. Hence, the passing percentage is approximately 85-90%.
    Other: Attendance is a crucial thing followed on the campus where a candidate is required to maintain 75% attendance rate at all times and often medical exceptions. Also, not considered to lead to the department of students unfairly making them re-register in the next academic year with the same fees and formalities.

    St. Xavier's University - A hub of knowledge.
    Placements: The college has a pretty good placement rate, with big companies coming to the campus to hire its students. The college has a good reputation because of Xavier's name, thus companies and organizations always want to come here and hire the best available students for their firm.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure available is really up to the mark, with a full-fledged studio and several media equipment available for mass communication. The college has a lot of essential equipment. However, the hostel facility available is quite expensive, being around Rs. 80,000 per semester, which is quite expensive for everyone to afford the hostel facility.
    Faculty: The faculty and curriculum available for my course are quite well. It's constantly evolving by implementing the latest trends in the field of media. They constantly try to give students a much more experiential knowledge rather than a theory-based one. The faculty is highly qualified, with everyone willing to communicate with the students and trying to find solutions to their problems.
    Other: The main reason I chose this course is my interest in the field of media. Thus, I always wanted to pursue mass communication, and finding a college like St. Xavier's has always been on my bucket list.

    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.

    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.

    Honest Review of St. Xavier's University, Kolkata by a Mass Communication student.
    Placements: I am pursuing a B.A. in Mass Communication, and my expected graduation year is 2027. 89% of the students in the course were placed, with the highest package offered being 30 LPA in the field of MBA. Top recruiting companies for our course include ABP, Zee, SVF, etc. Additionally, 70% of the students secured internships from companies such as ABP, Zee, SVF, etc. The top roles offered in my course are news reporter, anchor, mass communicator, etc.
    Infrastructure: The facilities provided in my college are great. The rooms are Wi-Fi equipped with CCTV monitoring. There is a huge library on the campus with lots of books; it's also been referred to as the knowledge palace. The quality of facilities in my hostel is great as it's a relatively new building equipped with multiple modern facilities. The quality of food in the canteen is great, and there is both non-veg and veg food available. The campus has a special medical centre for injuries, and the nurses and frontline workers there will assist you with your injury and discomfort very well. The college consists of a huge sports team as well.
    Faculty: The faculty is great and the curriculum is also very relevant according to today's time. I would say that the teaching quality is average or slightly above average as the professors don't connect deeply with the students and they should be much more free when teaching. Yes, the curriculum is very relevant as it deals with daily challenges and it makes students industry-ready due to the vast varieties of practical work taught by the professors. The semester exams difficulty is moderate and not too tough. There are 2 semesters in a year and each semester has 2 exams. Most of the students pass the exams, hence the pass percentage is high and greater than 95%.
    Other: I chose this course because I had an interest in the field of Mass Communication and wanted to progress in this field. The best thing about this course is that students are not under pressure of tough concepts or bounded by syllabus and hence they can understand the topics at their own pace. Also, the subjects included in mass communication are very interesting to learn. The thing that could be improved about the course is by adding more modern things and relatively things, although the syllabus and curriculum are very well organized for the modern date but there still lies some things which should be updated. Every year a major fest (XAVRANG) is held during the months of February or March and it's a huge event, a lot of popular artists perform during this event and a lot of fun takes place. The Campus crowd is very talented and very helping. The campus surroundings are good as well as it's in a relatively good place with malls nearby and the modern Kolkata in sight. Scholarships are given provided that one scores 85% in end sem and so 25% of their total expenditure in college will be paid back. A lot of extracurricular activities are also there which will make any student overwhelmed.

    It has well-structured academics, decent faculty, and good scope for growth but limited campus life.
    Placements: In my course, not many students applied for placements, so I think probably like 5% of students got placements. We do have an idea since I have not applied for placements. 80% of students got internships in companies like Fortis, Apollo, etc. I actually don't have much idea about it. Top roles are offered as nobody applied for placements in my course.
    Infrastructure: Every classroom is air-conditioned. It has smart boards with a podium, and seats are somewhat comfortable. There is Wi-Fi, but the connection is too slow and jammers are fitted in classrooms, so there's no network connection at all. I have not opted for hostel facilities, so I don't know about it. The canteen provides very good quality food at an affordable price. Various sports are played on the campus, including annual sports day.
    Faculty: Some teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable about the subject they are teaching. Their teaching technique is very good, but some of them are not up to the mark. The course curriculum is highly relevant to my course, and it covers all parts of psychology and enhances my knowledge of psychology. The difficulty level is moderate as most of the class students pass exams, and a very low number of students have backlogs.
    Other: I chose B.A. (Hons.) in Psychology because of my deep interest in understanding human behavior, mental processes, and emotional dynamics. I would wish to inculcate more practical knowledge rather than theoretical. Every year, an annual fest called Xavrang happens during January. There are many clubs and societies which students can take part in, according to their interests and hobbies. The campus is beautiful with a lot of greenery.
