Greetings from your Alma Mater.
St. Xavier's University is the latest addition in the long list of Jesuit Higher educational institutions in India. It is where the mind is without fear and the head is held high.
Our dream of establishing a Jesuit University has become a reality. The St. Xavier's University, Kolkata was inaugurated on July 7, 2017 and classes commenced on July 10. Now, we journey with dedication and determination to illuminate the minds of many with enduring wisdom. It is a march towards new directions to realize our vision 2020.
In its first historic year, we selected 400 students on the basis of merit from among 3,400 applicants. With our humble beginning, we will soon make our mark in the world of higher education. Therefore, we need to expand in order to cater to a larger number of meritorious as well as needy students in the days to come. It is now poised for growth and expansion, academically as well as infrastructure wise. The stage is now set for this Jesuit University to become one of the best in the country.
Our endeavour to form men and women for others requires your consistent cooperation and collaboration. We must have everyone's participation so that in future you can also feel proud that you are part of this noble cause.
