Good faculty, bad placement and average infrastructure.
Placements: There are not as many placements in this college as it is a government off-campus college, but it gives us excessive time so we can learn different skills and work on them. While working with various skills, as there is not such a case of attendance in this college, I can say from my seniors that they got settled in outside placements.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure here is great, and people are happy with it. However, as it was made in the period, it is too outdated and of no other use. We can also say from the hostel, as known from my friends who live in the hostel, the facility is also good over here, as a person can live comfortably in these hostels at the lowest rate.
Faculty: As for faculty, as all are government teachers, so they are all the best in their field and can teach complex topics with ease. That is good for us, and from my experience, the faculty over here is also great, and they will help you in everything.
Other: The college is good if you want to prepare for any other exam.

It is not the best college, but one can survive here.
Placements: In our college, placements are not at all promising. Even so, you will definitely get internship opportunities from the college itself. It provides paid internships with a minimum of Rs. 5000, depending on what you choose. You can always get the latest news about it on the official website.
Infrastructure: I am a day scholar and there is no hostel for girls. The classrooms are not good. But, the classrooms of B.Ed and the art department are well furnished with nice lighting, and they are working on other classrooms as well. The auditorium hall is quite nice. Otherwise, it has really poor infrastructure.
Faculty: The faculty members are nice and polite but can test your patience when you want your work done quickly. Their behaviour mostly depends on how you behave with them. The course curriculum is followed perfectly. But sometimes you might feel that you can study better on your own. I spend most of my time around the psychology faculty members, so I can say that the professors are really understanding and broad-minded. They support you well.
Other: There are a good number of activities done around campus, including dance, debate, speech, drama, etc. You can also get a scholarship if you're eligible. There is an NCC opportunity for all students.

It's good for distance-learning students, and the placements are average.
Placements: Placements are not much good in this college. Only a few students got placed off-campus. Campus placements are conducted within the universities or other educational institutions to provide jobs to students nearing completion of their studies.
Infrastructure: The courses are good in this college. The education quality is good. Only a girls' hostel is available. In reality, hostel life is more bounding than life at home. There are many rules and restrictions from curfew timings to meal hours. Students also have to abide by many disciplinary rules and have a very less personal space. It is important for students to prepare for life in a hostel beforehand.
Faculty: The faculty members are good. But studying materials are not provided by the college faculty properly. Exams are average, but the marks given by teachers are not so high.
Other: It's good for distance-learning students.

I do not recommend this college.
Placements: The college doesn't offer any placement facilities. It provides several courses including UG and PG courses in almost every expertise.
Infrastructure: The college presently doesn't offer any hostel facilities. However, it has labs, a library, and other amenities. However, the infrastructure is not so great. In addition, there are numerous co-curricular activities that are held frequently on a regular basis.
Faculty: The teaching facility is qualified. The course curriculum is very much relevant. Also, semester exams are conducted twice a year. The difficulty level of the exams is moderate.
Other: I enrolled myself at this college since I wanted a college that I do not require to visit frequently to prepare for government exams. Also, the subjects I chose were relevant to the course of the desired exams. The curriculum is affiliated with CSJMU Kanpur.

Great Faculty, Old but Good infrastructure.
Placements: Placement ratio in DAV College is not very high, but they do conduct Rojgaar Mela every year. In Rojgaar Mela in Year 2024, more than 800 students got placement from our college. The average package was from 12,000-30,000 per month. Companies like LIC also come for the recruitment in the college.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure in DAV College is not very good if you compare it to other private colleges, but as it is a very old government college, it has been maintained very well. We don’t have a canteen in our college, but we do have libraries, classrooms, Wi-Fi, labs, and a yoga classroom.
Faculty: Faculty in our college is very good. The teachers are very helpful; they are highly qualified. In B.A., 20+ subjects are available in our college. The curriculum is based on NEP-2020, and it makes students industry-ready. The exams are not very difficult.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to prepare for civil services. I chose Bachelor of Arts, and History and Sociology are my major subjects. The teachers are very qualified and helpful. The campus is very big and not very crowded. Very few events are organized. There is a very famous Green Park in front of our college.
