 " Calcutta University is one of the top five institutions in India. Though it had got a high rank, as a student my personal experiences are so great. Apart from the fact that it's highly reputed, I think the infrastructure could be much better. I'm studying in South Calcutta Girls' College which is under University of Calcutta. Our college is one of the oldest women colleges in the city. But the infrastructure has not changed much. We expect better amenities from the college like a proper auditorium hall, good canteen services with reasonable prices, a larger common room to accomodate more students during free times, etc. The good thing is that unlike other colleges, this institute is actually serious about studies. Teachers are responsible and they will teach you their best. I myself being from the Psychology Department have seen how dedicated teachers are with the theories, practicals, providing notes and best materials along with attendance. Yet the administrative part still lags behind. The library can be updated with a lot more books which are not available on the internet. "

 " I would like to say that the institution is one of the top five universities in India. In West Bengal, it's quite a popular institution. However, the management could be improved. The administrative part needs to be improved "

 " Even though the university has a glorious history from the perspective of results. It should always keep itself updated with the changing times. First of all right now I'm a student of a private college called the Bhawanipur Education Society College which is affiliated with the University of Calcutta. So this college does not represent the entire university as there are over 150 colleges under University of Calcutta ranging both from cities even in suburbs of West Bengal. My college itself is pretty good if considered only for the department of Journalism and Mass Communication and Film studies as the faculty is quite strong especially in case of a film studies. But at the same time my college is not a pretty well reputed institution in terms of academics rather it is famous for other  aspects such as fashion or for the social scene of the college. "

 " I wouldn't recommend the course on Psychology.  There weren't great teachers but then again there are very few places that have a good faculty for Psychology. I guess you have to mostly study on your own. I was thoroughly dissatisfied with the teaching. It is an okay place to be in provided you take charge of learning the subject on your own..I wouldn't recommend depending on the faculty. "
