  • i am astudent of class five, we are proud of our school, miss chatellear is our principal, we all love & also respect her.
  • I am Pround OF My School and I Think THAT my school is the best in the whole India and that is a true thing. "Proud of our school and happy are we".
  • I don't know much about the school as I did my schooling from St. Xavier's,Burdwan.But as far as the college is concerned,it is the best in all respects among all that I have seen.I did my HS from the college(now the HS section is not there)and I completed my graduation in 2005.Frankly,I love this place more than my school.It simply rocks!!! Equipped with all the necessities to be one of the best colleges(accredited by NAAC)it has a very strong and friendly faculty.And that's very much evident in the mark sheets of the students from all the departments.Apart from academics,the participation of the college in all co-curricular activities is par execellence.Starting from the control of the ball in the fields to the stage in the fests,this college shows its expertise everywhere.Being a member of the XAVERIAN family for 16 years has taught me many things which I'm sure I wouldn't have learnt elsewhere....and who says I'm not a family member now???? Cause.... "ONCE A XAVERIAN,ALWAYS A XAVERIAN"!!! All you XAVERIANS out there,be the best wherever you go and in whatever you do.There should not be anything beyond you..."NIHIL ULTRA"!!!

  • the best college becomes the worst college after autonomy.Fathers are only here for taking money from us.we have no indipendence.Can u imagine,that we have to buy tickets for our college's fest 'beyond barriers'.No consession for us.They take 200 rs per month from each student for development fee.but till nw we cant see ny kind of development.one union is necessary.Another problem is bengali culture have been lost from here.we do not get holiday on Biswakarma puja!!!nthing is good here

  • I am an ex-xaviers student, graduated in 1990 - B.Com (Hons).
  • Hi, I passed out class 12 in 2002 from this great institution and from this leading college in 2005. Everyday, I realise what a big difference 30 Park Street has made in my life - unlike anything or anyone could have made. St.Xavier's College now offers Masters' Degree in Computer Science and is working on a special course on Astronomy as a part of the B.Sc. Physics curriculum. This college is the only one to house its own observatory - which after being out-of-action for several years in between is operational again!! Nihil Ultra - truly nothing beyond!
  • Part 2 - Some more updates - the green benches and the 'Mali's Quarters' are no more. In its place stands a new building. This building is an extension of the college building and mirrors the school building standing across the 'Front Field'. Another campus of St.Xavier's College is coming up, details of which I am not very sure of at the moment. (I will update this in some time.) School news - Father Jerome s.j. is the new headmaster of St.Xavier's Collegiate school.

  • very nice job, keep it up.
  • m a student of st.xavier's delhi. "Xavier's rocks"......
  • Paulami Sil is a student of this college since 2010 - 2011 in the BMM department.
  • I passed Mathematics (Honours) from St. Xavier's College in 1997. I shall never forget the golden days I spent during 1994-1997. I shall never forget the great teaching from Prof. Dhrubajyoti Bhattacharyya, Prof. Dipak Chatterjee, Prof. T. K. Chakraborty, Prof. Kajal Bakshi and Prof. Amit Ghosh (Statistics). Although I did not get RKG as a teacher in college, I was his private student and his voice still rings in my ears. It is impossible to forget the voice of RKG. I have a great respect for St. Xavier's and I shall remember what I got from this great College till my death.
  • Proud to be a Xaverian.
  • I remember Prof. N.K Kuri, Prof. PK Chakraborty, Prof. Ranjan ray, Prof A. Gomes. Prof. S Bose , Prof. Manas Ganguly ( Chemistry ) Prof. Asish Siddhant ( if I am not mistaking his Last name). I was in Physics Department and the professors used to teach us form a very ground level to the ultimate level of understanding the subject. I was 1987-1990 Batch. I remember Father Huart. I remember Arunda's Canteen , Gomes -da in office and Study hall. Given a chance on my next birth ( I am a strong believer ) Will join the same College with same Subject. Thanks Dad , you sent me to that college.
