Why To Join Calcutta University - Reviews & Rating
Most Popular Tags
Likes
- The thing I like the most is the professionalism and the discipline of the college. There are number of fests going on all around the year . Brilliant facilities for sports as well.
- Canteen in the college is very affordable with a tremendous variety in the menu section. Generally fresh.
Dislikes
- Majority of the people are Bengali so if you’re an outsider you might have some trouble dwelling in.
- Sometimes too much of the strict rules may make life miserable for you.
Hostel Facilities:
I strongly recommend you not to join the hostel if you want to live a happy college life. It's too strict. The food is miserable. All time of the year, atleast 15 students are sick. The washrooms are miserable and would give you a number of complications. Please avoid going to the hostel as much as you can.
Likes
- The teaching staffs are excellent as they are very good at their work
- The non teaching staffs are also friendly and good
Dislikes
- Attendance strictness is there as minimum attendance is 75%
- There is sudden announce of exam dates and staffs remains absent many times
Hostel Facilities:
The hostel provided for girls are either 3seater or 2 seater rooms.. there are 3 floors for girls to stay starting from 2nd to 4th . The 1st floor is occupied by the male staffs of the hostel who cook food . In the 2nd floor warden madams room is also there . There is a lift in the hostel. Washrooms are medium cleaned. The masi of the hostel who is supposed to clean the rooms doesn't come daily she only comes in a month once or twice depending upon her mood. Their is a student body in the hostel group . Down there is a common room mainly used by students to study as the room is more of a storage room with dirt and dusts as the cleaning masi doesn't do her work. The food provied are so and so. They will not provide u food more than once. Insects like vegetable worms do come out of cooked vegetables . There is a water filter in the ground floor near the mess where one can fill their bottles . No parents or gurdian are allowed in the rooms!.. the terrace remains closed.

- College building is maintained well by the authorities
Dislikes
- Almost no fests or events are organised, this focusing only on academics
- Activity clubs are there only for namesake, no activities are conducted
Hostel Facilities:
Hostel forms are given by the college after admission. The girls hostel is near the college and distance is not much. However the facilities of the hostel are very poor. Basic hygiene is not maintained, rooms are not cleaned by hostel staff, washrooms are dirty, and the food quality is pathetic. Food is served only 2 times per day and that too food is not nutritious.

There are 3 hostels-wann,Duff and Ogilivie-for boys and one hostel-Lady Dundas-for girls, which is huge. Single rooms are provided in boys hostels,with provisions for double sharing or 4 sharing also. Girls hostels have double or triple sharing rooms. The food is okayish,but fresh. Vegetables are bought every morning and cooked. Bathroom is also cleaned every morning, with ample water supply. The room is decent,but they don't provide light, fan or bedding.they charge 47253 for boys annually, to be paid in 2 installments, 27k and 20k and around 55k for girls annually. Usually a separate form is released for hostel admission just after new admissions, which needs to be filled up and pay the first installment of 26007,to avail hostel. Also the area where the college is located,also has a variety of PGs which usually charge around 2.5 to 4k for bedding charges. Food is also not a problem as the college canteen food is pretty good and there are lots of restaurants and home deliveries around
