Please check the Active Fresher's Selections Page for an incomplete list of selections/intro seminars. This might be incomplete!
Well, A collection of mostly accurate info (as of 15th July 2025), primarily but not specifically for UG freshers of IITKGP.
It has the following sections :
Fresher's Guide : A collection of pages to help you settle into IITKGP.
FAQs : Frequently Asked Questions. Please see this before asking questions in the group.
Admin : All the administrative info you might wanna know. Includes info about Fees, The college portal (ERP), and more.
Acad : Academics. Some of the available Resources, info about EAA, info about credits, etc.
Life in KGP : All the things that makes KGP, KGP. Excepting Societies.
Societies : Fancy way of saying clubs. Definitely see this to make sure you don't miss out on any info!
Contact us : Well, if you wanna contact us, and other information about us. Disclaimers/ToS/Privacy Policy are all here.
"This Freshers’ Guide helps you navigate every aspect of campus life beyond the classroom." I don't know how true this is, but from what I know of communique, this is a must see!
The official one made by campus. Slightly outdated, but still extremely useful.
I wasn't the first to try something like this, and I don't think I'll be the last. Go to this app for academic resources, and info about socs. Only available on Android
One of metaKGP's Project, this is currently the largest collection of information about the campus, but a vast majority of it is outdated. The inspiration of this project.
Yet another fresher's repo project, this one's a collection of information more from the point of view of a campus org. Has extremely useful infor about Scholarships and such. 88 MB.
The main website's official page for the 2024 freshers.
Contains info relevant to all students (acads, halls, gymk, etc.). Mostly Up to date.
Might be updated soon for 2025.
So Hi!
You've gotten into KGP. G'luck is what I wanna say, but luck aint gonna save ya, knowledge is, and that's why this was made. - 11th June.

So this is a month later, over a dozen 2AM bursts of motivation, a heck of a lot of coffee, and this site is finally done.
Not really, I still wanna do a little bit more, but that isn't part of the primary plan, so yea, what I & we initially planned is done.Here's hoping this will be just as helpful to you as we imagined.

Why did I do this though?
There's this quote : "A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in". Part of the reason is that : I wanted something like this when I joined IITKGP in 2024, but I found nothing, so this was my attempt to rectify for those who come after.
I know that this is one of the best ways for a lot of people to know me, and that does motivate me a bit too. That being said, it never was the primary goal : I wanted as many people as possible to help me in this, and I have done this under an alias (ASR) instead of my actual name.
I thought a lot of information wasn't available online, so this was an attempt to bring all that info online. [And don't get me wrong, it wasn't, but what I later learnt is 1) It is available but no one knows where it is, and 2) No one maintains such information repos. And my one request to you, the reader, is to think how one can change this? The current system is obviously not enough.]
