Admission to the college is through an online application and a Basic Entrance Exam with 100 questions on social awareness, English, math, and reasoning. Scoring over 60% usually ensures a place on the cutoff list. The college is ideal for those preparing for government jobs, although it faces a faculty shortage, relying on guest teachers, with the Economics department receiving praise for its supportiveness. Exams are held every 3-4 months and are manageable for diligent students.
The government-based college offers affordable fees, with a 3-year BA in Economics costing approximately Rs 6,000 in total. Boys pay Rs 2,000 annually, while girls pay Rs 500. SC/ST students benefit from further reduced fees. Placement options for general degrees like B.A. are limited, but better for professional courses like BBA and BCA, with companies such as Utkarsh Small Finance Bank and Wipro recruiting on campus. In the latest cycle, 20% of the students received placements, with salaries ranging from Rs 15,000 to Rs 25,000 per month.
Patna University and BYJU selected four students for assistant professor roles. Internships are available via platforms like Internshala, offering work in accounting and MS Excel with certificates and stipends. The National Institute of Securities Market offers a Financial Youth Program for economics students. Financial support is robust, with loans and scholarships for OBC and SC/ST students, and various concessions available. Despite a 10% fee increase post-COVID, the college remains cost-effective.
