Its in north campus. NIRF is 1.
Placements: 80 percent of students are placed in my course. The highest package is 1LP and the lowest is 50 K. There are no companies, but you can do a Ph.D. and tech in clgs. There is no company related thing in my course. Teaching is a top role offered in my course. So basically in B.A. Hons Hindi, you can do a PhD.
Infrastructure: Facilities are not too good, but basic facilities are similar for all departments. My department is basically a little back. Hostel qualities are really nice. Food, cleaning, sports, rooms, etc. Everything is fine. Our Hostel is semi private, so fee is a little high.
Faculty: Teachers are qualified and knowledgeable and even sweet and good in nature. Their teaching quality is good. This course is easy and relevant. It makes the student industry ready. Semester exams are not very tough. You can study before 1 month.
Other: I love my course.

Overall, the college is good, you can take admission.
Placements: Hindu College is one of the best colleges. I took B.A. honors English, and it is my best decision to take this course. Most of the students of my batch got placed in good companies by the placement cell. Even one student got a 5 LPA package from the company, which was arranged through the placement cell.
Infrastructure: The college has a good Wi-Fi connection, and the classrooms are also pretty good. The college has a large library and labs as well. The canteen is also pretty decent, and the food is average, and the prices of food are also very affordable. There are sports and other games also available.
Faculty: I took B.A. honors English at Hindu College, and it is a pretty good degree, I think. College has good teachers who are well knowledgeable and very polite to students. They are always ready to help the students. The course is also very good. Exams are a little hectic, but you can easily pass.
Other: I chose this course, B.A. honors English, because I wanted to improve my English and communication skills. This is a very good course, and this is the top college of Delhi University, and I have always wanted to enroll in this college.

It is the best college we can get at DU.
Placements: Typically students from English hons do not go for campus placements but still, if we try like some of my friends can get an average package of 19 LPA (one of our seniors got it), I am not really sure about the lowest package but our extracurricular activities do play an important role in our placements. We have a placement cell in our college.
Infrastructure: Apart from the lack of air-conditioning in classes, the infrastructure is pretty good. Wi-Fi is smooth. Labs and the library have AC and are well-furnished. The hostel is nice, but the food is just average. We have a huge ground with a basketball court and a football field.
Faculty: Some teachers are really good, and make the academics part fun and worth it. The remaining teachers are just average. Semester exams are easy, although we need to read novels beforehand for a good CGPA. The pass percentage is high. If students love reading and want to be around people who think out of the box then this is the place as we discuss everything from politics to mythologies.
Other: Hindu College is one of the best colleges on the north campus. It is filled with lovely people and we always have something or the other thing to enjoy here. It is a hassle to maintain our CGPA and extracurricular activities simultaneously but it's worth it. The diversity here is so good, and every student is writing their own stories. Mecca is one of the best fest of DU and it is something we can be a part of it directly. I suggest students do not miss the chance to be part of this campus.

Review of Hindu College, University of Delhi.
Placements: Three types of companies visit for placements Dream tier, Tier 1, and Tier 2. The student intake is different every year. There are more placement opportunities for students from Science and Commerce backgrounds compared to Humanities. If we are lucky, we can secure good placements in our course.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of our college is good. Library is open from 9 AM to 7 PM. Classrooms in both blocks are also good. There are 2 canteens and several places to sit and hang out with friends. The girls' hostel is decent. Boys' hostel is still under construction. There are plenty of food options available both inside and around the campus.
Faculty: Some faculty members are amazing. They are always available to support us, while others are not. So, it completely depends on the professors we are assigned. Since the implementation of NEP, the syllabus has become vast. Apart from our core subjects, we will also study subjects from other disciplines.

Excellent faculty and vibrant college life.
Placements: In English Honours, there is a very low placements rate. However, due to the placements cell of the college, editorial groups bring in offers to hire freshers. Only 1-2 percent students get internships this way. The others find internships on their own. The top roles offered in my course are that of editor, journalist, content writer, novelist, writer, professor, researcher, etc.
Infrastructure: WiFi covers the whole of college area. The library is really good equipped with a vast variety of books for all the departments. The classrooms are pretty old in some blocks considering it's been 125 years since the college was built. There are no air conditioners in the classrooms.
Faculty: The teachers are really proficient in their subjects. They are very knowledgeable, helpful and always open to new doubts and interpretations. The course curriculum is according to NEP 2020. There are certain extra courses which are mandatory besides the core subjects. The exams are moderate to difficult.
Other: I've been passionate about literature since childhood. If the professors adopted a more feedback-based approach towards teaching, it would be better. There is an annual fest called Mecca which lasts for typically 2-3 days.
