About
Founded by the Jesuits in 1860, St. Xavier's Kolkata is the highest-ranked college in India outside Delhi, at 8th in NIRF 2025, and the first college in eastern India to win autonomy. Its B.Com (Hons) is legendarily competitive and feeds Kolkata's chartered accountancy and finance pipeline; the college also runs one of the country's oldest science departments. Admission is through the college's own test and interview rather than board merit alone.
