Our College library is one of the oldest in the city. Huge collection of all kinds of books. Some classrooms had ACs. All classrooms had projectors. Both male and female hostels were well equipped and clean. There was a big sports ground and two medical rooms were there. The teachers were quite friendly and approachable. Helped in studies and various other projects. Teaching quality was up to the mark.

Huge classrooms with projectors in each room. The course curriculum was relevant to real life exposure and the students were mostly taught outside the book. The college has a wide range of facilities like Wi-Fi, football field, basketball ground, 2 canteens, large library, and the latest technologies to help students.

The college has a twin hostel for boys and girls which is 1 km away from college. The hostel fees are of an average of INR 7000 per month. Calcutta is a city where getting pg is not difficult. You can easily find a phone near the college. Classrooms lack ac which is a drawback.
