Jadavpur University conducts the WBJEE entrance exam in late May. An example of the university's flexible admission process is a student who initially enrolled in B. Pharma and later switched to Printing Engineering through decentralized counseling. The university offers affordable fees, with most departments at approximately 2400 rupees per year, except for the IT department, which costs 30,000 rupees per semester. Canteen expenses are also low compared to outside options. The university's strong placement program attracts over 100 top companies annually, including Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Adobe, and Samsung, achieving a placement rate of over 85%. Notably, departments like Computer Science and IT often hit 100% placement. The 2020 batch saw a highest salary package of 58 LPA from Google and 1.8 crore from Facebook, with over 11 students earning packages above 1 crore. The average salary is around 10 lakhs per annum. Internships starting in the third year offer pre-placement opportunities. Jadavpur's placement is comparable to leading IITs. The university supports financially needy students with the "Feeship" scholarship, assessed through a February interview. Engineering courses, excluding IT, cost about 11,000 rupees over four years, with the first two years at 5,500 rupees each and the latter two years at 2,500 rupees each. Students may also access the Swami Vivekananda Merit cum Means Scholarship for 60,000 rupees per year, dependent on academic performance. The university also aids in applying for various scholarships and offers a freeship program based on merit and financial need, covering the entire course fee.
