About BengalCampus
BengalCampus was founded to solve a pervasive problem in West Bengal higher education: misleading admission advertisements, hidden tuition fee charges, and fabricated rankings.
BengalCampus operates as an independent research initiative in pre-launch stage. The data published here is synthesized from public regulatory repositories (AICTE, WBJEEB, NIRF, NAAC). This platform does not provide legal counseling or represent admission agents.
Our Four Non-Negotiable Operating Standards
Field-Level Traceability
We never publish a fee, rank, or accreditation without linking to an authoritative source URL, academic cycle, and audit date. If an institution has not published its fees, we state "Not verified in official gazette" rather than inventing estimates.
Zero Agent Sponsorships
We do not accept commissions, lead-referral payments, or paid directory placements. Every institution in our catalog is ranked and listed according to objective, verifiable criteria.
Clear Legal & Entity Disambiguation
We clearly distinguish autonomous colleges from universities (e.g. distinguishing IEM Kolkata from UEM Kolkata, or Jadavpur FET from affiliated institutions) so candidates understand which authority confers their final degree.
Privacy & Consent by Default
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023, we store comparison state locally in your browser, never inject advertising tracking cookies, and request explicit unbundled consent for enquiry communications.
