Among other reasons why Nālandā beats other similar institutions in the number of students studying therein, two stand out most conspicuously. Nālandā, at first, was the one institution which, though primarily Buddhist, welcomed students of other faiths as well. In this respect, Nālandā may be compared with great many Jesuit Colleges in India, which, though founded originally only for the Christians, threw open their doors to other non-Christians also. The Jesuit College in Bombay has the largest number of students among all the colleges in Bombay.
