In 1914, Subhas Bose traveled to northern India in search of a spiritual guru, which caused distress to his family and led to his expulsion from college after an incident involving a professor. Despite family pressure, his expulsion remained until 1917, when he was allowed to return to a different college and graduated with honors in philosophy. Subsequently, at his father's insistence, he moved to England to prepare for the Indian Civil Services examination.

In the long vacations of 1914, they travelled to northern India for several months to search for a

spiritual guru to guide them. Subhas's family was not told clearly about the trip, leading them to
think he had run away. During the trip, in which the guru proved elusive, Subhas came down with
typhoid fever. His absence caused emotional distress to his parents, leading both parents to
break down upon his return. Heated words were exchanged between Janakinath and Subhas. It
took the return of Subhas's favourite brother, Sarat Chandra Bose, from law studies in England
for the tempers to subside. Subhas returned to presidency and busied himself with studies,
debating and student journalism.In February 1916 Bose was alleged to have masterminded,[53] or
participated in, an incident involving E. F. Oaten, Professor of History at Presidency. [9] Before the
incident, it was claimed by the students, Oaten had made rude remarks about Indian culture, and
collared and pushed some students; according to Oaten, the students were making an
unacceptably loud noise just outside his class.[9] A few days later, on 15 February, some students
accosted Oaten on a stairway, surrounded him, beat him with sandals, and took to flight. [9] An
inquiry committee was constituted. Although Oaten, who was unhurt, could not identify his
assailants, a college servant testified to seeing Subhas Bose among those fleeing, confirming for
the authorities what they had determined to be the rumor among the students. [9] Bose was
expelled from the college and rusticated from University of Calcutta.[64] His family's connections
were employed to pressure Asutosh Mukherjee, the Vice-Chancellor of Calcutta University.

Despite this, Subhas Bose's expulsion remained in place until 20 July 1917, when the
Syndicate of Calcutta University granted him permission to return, but to another college. [10] He
joined Scottish Church College, receiving his B.A. in 1918 in the First Class with honours in
philosophy, placing second among all philosophy students in Calcutta University. At his father's
urging, Subhas Bose agreed to travel to England to prepare and appear for the Indian Civil
Services (ICS) examination.[66] Arriving in London on 20 October 1919, Subhas readied his
application for the ICS.
