Good infrastructure and environment friendly.

Placements: There are 60 students in my course. It depends on oneself, they are involved in some internships such as Thirty40, Abilityex, Kalahut, etc. The highest salary is Rs 23.50 LPA while average salary is Rs 5.70 LPA, as much I got to know till now. Almost 20 to 25 students are doing internships currently.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is amazing. Our campus environment is very fresh and beautiful. The garden is managed perfectly and soothing. The quality of food is quite not good currently. But the previous one was amazing no one had any complaints. Medical facilities are good and 24/7 in service, sports, and games. The ground is always open and anyone can catch up with whatever, one wants to play cricket, basketball, etc. The quality of facility in hostel is good. Library is amazing.

Faculty: The teaching quality is very clear and good. One can understand very easily. They are qualified and knowledgeable. They are also very much helpful and informative. They want to make students ready for any such skills required. The pass percentage in my course is almost 90% so you can imagine the level of teaching and difficulties that we overcome during our semester exams in college.

Other: I chose history case because I want to explore more of it and want to drive myself in it. If there would be a digital system I suppose that would be great and would help us in understanding more better way. Events, fests, crowd, and campus surroundings are not bad. But just wished to have a canteen area a little bigger than usual. The fest seasons are so eye-catching and good.

Quality education and good campus.

Placements: The placements are decent for B.A. Hons. History. However, it is comparatively less than what other DU colleges have to offer, especially for the North campus. Here, the average package offered is somewhere around INR 4 LPA. The roles offered include research and edtech. The placement rate for our course is around 80%.

Infrastructure: Crafted with red sandstones, Maitreyi College exudes sophistication. It is well-equipped with all the modern amenities, like an auditorium, seminar hall, playground, spacious premises, a canteen with nice food and affordable prices. It also has a huge library.

Faculty: The teachers are indeed very helpful and supportive. Their friendly approach helps us a lot in understanding difficult concepts. The curriculum is very much related to the market and covers different dimensions of global history. The exam level is neither too difficult nor too easy.

It is a great DU College.

Placements: The placements are average at Maitreyi College. Since it is a South Campus college of DU, there is a huge gap between placements offered at the North Campus and here. The average package offered is INR 4 LPA, while the highest may go up to INR 9–10 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is an edge above that of other colleges at Delhi University. We have our auditorium, seminar hall, air-conditioned classrooms, a huge playground, laboratories and dedicated rooms for different societies as well. The campus is spacious enough.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful. All of them boast great experiences and are, indeed, very knowledgeable. The teaching quality is very good, as they use student-friendly techniques to explain. Yes, the curriculum does give us practical exposure, as history walks are conducted and guest lectures also happen.

Value for money women's college.

Placements: A rough rate of 70% is placed every year on our course. The placements anyway are average here since it is a 2-tier college. Only a bunch of students get good placements. The average package is around INR 4 LPA. The placement cell is active but there is a huge difference between our college and the north campus' placements.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very eye-calming. The entire campus is built of red stone, which is very soothing to see. Besides, we do have all the amenities like laboratories, auditoriums, playgrounds, seminar halls, parking and air-conditioned and regular classrooms.

Faculty: The faculty is very experienced. They are always supportive when it comes to new initiatives and other personal concerns as well. They always motivate us to grow and enhance our skill set by participating in extracurricular activities. The course curriculum is relevant and we also do historical walks and archeological visits.

Really good garden and environment.

Placements: The placements are good but not for every course. The commerce department gets good placements and top companies come through the placement cell. But other than that, there's no such great placement for any other department. You can find good internships but it was mostly unpaid to gain experience.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. The college has curtains in every single room. There are also good facilities of Chemistry labs, computer labs and smart classes. The library is also good, one can find each and every book or you can also ask them and they will get it for you in the library in 5-6 days.

Faculty: The professors are really helpful. The semester exams are difficult but because of good notes provided by the professors, it becomes a little easy to get good marks. The courses are relevant, it offers humanities, commerce and Science although there is no psychology course.

Other: The annual fest Rhapsody has always been a great hit. Great artists come to the fest like Darshan Raval, Arjun Kanungo and many more.
