Overall: I am an alumnus of Jadavpur University. I completed my MA from this university in 2021. I was admitted to the university on the basis of merit. My graduation percentage was 69% and the benchmark was set at 50%. If I talk about my experience, it has been good. I belong to a lower middle-class family and the fees set by the university are reasonable for students like us. It is recognised by UGC and the courses are AICTE-approved. It has also received an A grade from NAAC. I feel proud to state that our university has been ranked 182nd in QS Asia University Ranking 2023. It was ranked fourth in university category by NIRF in 2022. All these achievements validate the quality-education students receive from the university.

Placement: I am currently pursuing PhD while working as an assistant professor in a college. As I had different career plans, I did not take part in the placement process. However, I still remember the placement statistics. Here are some of them. Around 750 offers were received and over 620 students were placed. Many top recruiters took part in the placement drive. The total count will definitely be over 100. I couldn't recall the average package but the highest package offered in 2021 was Rs 58 LPA.

Infrastructure: I still remember an incident where i was just curious thinking about how big my university was while sitting at the canteen. I took out my phone and scrolled through the official website. The campus is spread over 96 acres of land and within the boundaries stands 35 departments, interdisciplinary schools, centres of excellence, hostels, guest houses, a central library, a daycare centre, a health centre, an amenities centre, a post office, bank, gym, open-air theatre, etc.

Faculty: I was an introvert back then and found it difficult to cope up. My HoD and professors helped me a lot in my studies and provided the requisite guidance. Dr. Bidisha Chakraborty, Dr. Sekhar Kumar Samaddar, Dr. Santanu Biswas, Dr. Ranjan Chakrabarti, Dr. Subarna Kr. Das are few of the faculty members. I will always be indebted to them.

Hostel: As the university was close to my home, I didn't opt for hostel facilities. However, I am engaged to my then classmate who lived in the boys hostel. So, I can give you a brief review. There are a total of 13 hostels on our campus, out of which nine are boys hostels. The intake capacity for boys hostel is 1250+. We also had an exclusive hostel for research scholars which is still in use. The hostel mess is taken care of by the student's mess committee.

Overall: The one thing that attracted me the most to study at Jadavpur University was how unique and accepting the culture was there. I studied M.A. in Film Studies at JU Kolkata, and it was the most amazing experience of my life. The campus was huge, surrounded by greenery, it felt like a different world once you entered the university, as the nearby commotion in the street subsides exponentially. The Jadavpur University campus is culturally vibrant, you could see, groups of students sitting on sidewalks engaged in music, poetry, acting and so much more. Other than the campus, the placement opportunities I received from the university itself were great. I secured a job as an assistant stage coordinator at a reputed theatre company. The salary package offered was Rs 3 LPA. The best thing about Jadavpur University is the programme fees. Being a government university, the fees are very cheap and no extra costs were later on added, during the session. Our exam fee was Rs 500 only.

Placement: Jadavpur University has always maintained a 100% placement rate. The engineering students secured the maximum number of placement opportunities in both government and private sectors. In 2022, a total of 100+ companies visited the campus during the Jadavpur University placement process. For PG courses such as M.A, M.Sc, etc. the average salary package offered was around Rs 2.5 LPA, to as high as 8 LPA. The Jadavpur University highest package offered to a student was Rs 1.8 CPA by Facebook. If you fail to secure a job offer from the campus placements, JU also helped with pool or off-campus placements.

Infrastructure: The Jadavpur University infrastructure was well maintained. For film studies, we had an auditorium, a screening room, a film library, two laboratories and air-conditioned classrooms with projectors for practical learning. The canteens offer delicious food at affordable prices. For us film studies students, Jadavpur University, even organised free viewing at the Kolkata Film Festivals. Hostel accommodation was available for both boys and girls, along with several options for PGs nearby.

Faculty: The Jadavpur University faculty members were extremely friendly in the film studies department. Each teacher had a unique approach to teaching their respective topics. Mainak sir and Anirudha sir taught the best. Their approach was engaging and made us indulge more in the topics. For the second semester, we also got to train under an FTII alumni on filmmaking and editing.

Hostel: Separate boys' and girls' hostels were offered by Jadavpur University and there were also a number of neighbouring PG choices. May students opt opted for PGs instead of hostels as the seating was limited and you had to take an exam, passing which admission to the hostel was granted. The Jadavpur University hostel fees were cheap, making it easy for students to afford it without hesitation. There are 1254 total beds in the hostel for boys. There are 622 beds available in Girls Hostel. These hostels are both on campus. A total of 1600 students can stay in the 13 hostels, 4 of which are for females and 9 of which are for men.
