Remarks :
The admission process is quite simple and hard at the same time. Hard if you have scored less than the eligibilty colllege expects. Its purely on merit basis where you must score above 90 % for your 12th examination results. Even for students who have applied for management seat they would consider only students who scored at least 80%. The application forms can be found on their official website and can be applied online. Their admission procedures are quick before any colleges so start applying as soon as you get the results I received the call from RCSS first before any colleges and after all the procedures and admission is when I started getting calls from other colleges I applied for.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose this course because of the course structure which includes B.Com integrated with professional studies such as CA/CMA/ACCA. Here, in RCSS you have to take up any of these professional courses as additional, not just the degree course and I chose ACCA. Of course, you need dedication and motivation to take the two courses and study them simultaneously within three years but it is worth it as you have a degree as well as a professional qualification within just three years and you are industry-ready. Believe I have come to know so many seniors who have cleared all the papers and passed from college with flying colors and been placed in the big 4s. You can check out more about them on their official Instagram page [rcss.live]. Talking about faculties, all our teachers recruited here come with high qualifications some even have taken their PHDs, CAs, etc. The faculties are excellent because they provide support & give appropriate guidance to students to pursue their dreams.
Internships Opportunities :
As I mentioned before, the companies that come to recruit in RCSS are mostly MNCs with quite good packages. Many of my seniors have been placed in KPMG, EY GDS, Wipro, and Amazon in various roles such as tax associates, tax analysts, etc with good packages. The placement procedures goes long way and give good effort for them to grab these opportunities. The placement procedures go differently according to the department you are in [ B.Com, BBA, PG ] and also the companies and roles offered.
Fees and Financial Aid :
As the course includes not just the degree but also the professional course the fees are quite high the highest being for ACCA. This is because ACCA is a UK-based course and examinations the books for which are imported from the UK. And not to mention the teachers who assist or teach us for the ACCA papers are international faculties too. It comes to around 2 lakh something per year for B.Com plus ACCA. Also, there are scholarships which you can avail. When I joined, after the first few weeks I received emails regarding the scholarships you can apply for to the college which these scholarships were government based. The main highlight of RCSS is the amazing placements you get to go with. MNCs like the Big 4s and other multinational companies come for placement in our college and I have seen many of my seniors being placed at Deloitte, KPMG, EY, etc with good packages these attractive placements is also one of the reasons why I chose this college over others.
Campus Life :
Even though the college focuses mostly on academics, they are not behind in other co-curricular activities and in fact give almost equal consideration to them too. Recently, I went on a 2-day Outbound Training program conducted for second-year students, and needless to say, it was worth the trip. We had so much fun at the same time learning important lessons on leadership skills and teamwork. This training program was an exposure to give a practical experience on what it's like to be working as a team because in the corporate world you do not do the tasks alone but work with a team of various diversities and cultures and have to adapt accordingly. Talking about the library, the library has immense books mainly useful for research purposes. Most postgraduate students make use of the library for research purposes. The library also includes computer resources on one floor which is extremely useful for us ACCA students as we get to practice our computer-based examinations there.
Other Applied Colleges
Sacred Heart College - [SH], Ernakulam | Bachelor of Commerce [B.Com] (Taxation)
I preferred RCSS over SHC because RCSS provides integrated professional course along with degree courses.
