Welcome to St. Xavier's College

Thank you for your interest in Xaviers!

St. Xavier's strives to be a truly Jesuit University in these changing times of the 21st Century. Perhaps it is this which has earned it in 2007, the highest awarded rating A+ in the re-accrediation by the NAAC, an autonomous body linked to the University Grants Commission of India. For the last many years in a row, the national magazine INDIA TODAY has rated it high among the first 10 colleges in India. In the June 2000 issue and again in the June 2006 issue, St. Xavier's has been rated the best Arts College in India and the second best Science and Commerce College in the country. Several other publications have paid tribute to Xavier's. The UGC has awarded St. Xavier's, the "College with a Potential for Excellence" award in 2006, with a grant of Rs. 60 lakhs. However, it is the lives our students lead and their contribution to humanity that are our best accolades.
