A better place for learning.
Placements: Around 80% of the students are placed every year through the placement cell. The best companies offering a package of around 10 to 15 lacs are put in front of the students for their well-settled future and career. There is a separate placement cell that is coordinated.
Infrastructure: The hostel facilities are good and impressive, including the food. The atmosphere there is calm, pleasant and peaceful, but the fee is a bit high, making it difficult to afford for all the people. It is around INR 1,80,000, which is a very high amount for a government college.
Faculty: The faculty is top-notch. They concentrate on the development of the individual instead of just completing the syllabus and getting their jobs done. In my college, the teachers are highly qualified and all of them own a Masters degree and PGs in their respective subjects.
Other: A large number of fests are organized in which everyone can participate. There are many societies for individuals to join and develop in.

    Q:   Can students with a minimum cutoff for B Sc. get a seat at Maitreyi College?
    A: 

    Hello Nishar Ahmed, let me first explain the concept of cutoff and then answer your query for easy understanding of the whole issue. Because of its standing amongst the students Maitreyi college gets a large number of students who are seeking admission. The admissions are actually controlled by Delhi University through its portal designed specifically for admissions to different colleges which are affiliated to it. In such a scenario if a student with very less percentile applies to Maitri then that student is bound to get disappointed when he will not get this college of a choice. To avoid this from happening and also to avoid having false hopes of admission Maitreyi college announces cutoffs on its website for every round of admission. This actually is for the information of students so that those who have scored less than the cut of need not attempt admission because their chances of getting admission are next to nil. This also helps students in identifying an alternate college and giving that as the first choice. This definitely does not mean that anyone having the percentile of cutoff is going to get admission but it's only an indicator that there is some possibility or probability of getting admission. 

           Now to answer your query. For student with minimum cut off for BSc, which has been declared by the college, normally are not likely to get admission because many more students who have more percentile, are going to compete for the limited seats available in this college. 

    Best wishes to you.
