Shri Shikshayatan is one of the best colleges in Kolkata, affiliated under the University of Calcutta. It is located in Lord Sinha Road which is very close to (walking distance) the Rabindra Sadan metro station and also connected by convenient bus routes. Both the bus stop and metro station is close by the college making it very easy for students to visit from any corner of the city. The college is within the premises of the shri shikshayatan school. It's great for the students who study in the same school can take admission in their own college and because it's only for girls, it provides an environment that is safe. Also, it is highly apolitical. The admission criteria for this college is merit-based, you obviously need to have 55% in your 12th board exam and it works on the first-come, first-serve basis according to the number of seats per department. Both honours and general subjects (21 subjects precisely) are provided in graduation in all three streams of arts, science and commerce. Except these, programs like BBA and post-graduation programs like M.COM, B.ED, M.A are also facilitated. The infrastructure and hygiene is very well-maintained. This college generates career-oriented programs along with foreign language classes. An annual fest is held in the college, the college itself participates in many other affluent and well-known fests of other colleges as the name of "shri shikshayatan" is never missed out from the list. The faculty as well as the principle is very cooperative and helpful. If your goals are strong, the 3 years of your graduation would be enough to get you all groomed with great communication skills and would prepare for your career and job interviews. With the new semester system introduced in last 2 years, 75% attendance has been made compulsory for every student and nobody would cut you a slack there. Also, remember PTM from school? you're definitely going to have that after every semester exam. This is actually good as the parents will be involved and can track the records of the attendance as well as results of their children. But i can promise the college would be a different world of its own. The campus life is very happening besides academics. The Student’s Council organizes talent shows, cultural programmes, Freshers’ Welcome, Final Year Farewell and other programmes of common interest. There is a the personal college magazine, blood donation camps are held along with independence day and republic day. Being a history hons. student even we were taken on educational field trips so you can expect that no matter you're from which department. The college has also taken the initiative of providing railway concession and scholarships for its students, for years now. Although the fees of the college is quite affordable given the infrastructure and academy it provides. rank wise it is the 3rd best college in the city. Definitely check their attractive ad-on courses if you want to learn something extra that might help you get a job right away! It is NAAC and AICTE accredited grade A college established in 1955.Read Full Review
