Student's perspective on Maitreyi College.
Placements: I am from the B.A. (Hons.) in Political Science course. In this course, we can be eligible for any competitive exam. The average package ranges from 6-7 LPA. Apart from that, big companies come to provide internships to students so that they can gain real-world experience.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is great with all the basic amenities provided such as Wi-Fi, library, big classrooms, media room and canteen facilities, which are excellent. Games and sports facilities are also available within the campus. Several games are conducted such as basketball and football.
Faculty: Faculty members and the course curriculum are well-designed in such a manner that helps students for overall development. Exams are conducted twice a year. Apart from that, several tests and assignments are conducted to check student's abilities and weaker parts so they can work on them.
Other: The campus crowd is nice. It conducts its annual fest, all departments fest, functions, and competitions. Scholarships are provided for students from weak economic backgrounds.

It was good. I am satisfied.
Placements: The placements are decent. It is important to do some research work and be involved in the process throughout. They provide you with good opportunities and options to choose from. Rest is dependent on the students and their abilities to be a part of the programme.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. It’s a beautiful college with a lovely garden and a rock garden maintained by the hardworking gardeners of the college. Along with it, the classrooms have projectors for presentations and advanced learning. The rooms are big and the washrooms are clean.

Review of Maitreyi College, University of Delhi by Benii.
Placements: As a humanities student, our college does not provide direct placement opportunities for our course. However, commerce students have access to placements, and the placement cell assists students from all courses in securing internships. Companies like Deloitte, ICICI, and many others visit the campus for interviews, primarily for B.Com students.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library are available for students. I don't live in the hostel, but my friends have shared that the hostel food is quite good, and they also get snacks on weekends. Canteen food is nice as well. Our college offers a variety of sports, and participation is open to all, regardless of experience.
Faculty: Our teachers are very well-qualified and knowledgeable. Some are helpful but some don't understand the struggle of students who are in society and mark their attendance 0, and don't even give 1 or 2 marks. Semester exams are not that tough.
Other: I chose this course because of my core interest in politics and I want to prepare for government jobs in the future so this course will help to prepare for my exam. I wish there were some more practical things because it's a whole theoretical which is sometimes frustrating.

It is a good place for studying as it has helpful and good staff members.
Placements: More than 95% of students are placed. The salary package offered is 15 LPA. Political activists and teachers are the roles offered. Government companies visit here. The placement cell plays a very important role in collaborating with various companies.
Infrastructure: All the amenities are available. The quality of the food is amazing. Facilities are great. The best part is the book collection in the library. We get ice cream and curd from Mother Dairy. The hostel has a very good environment and a variety of plants.
Faculty: All teachers are helpful. The course is interesting. 33% is the pass percentage. 75% attendance is mandatory. Semester exams are easy if we study. Teachers use the best teaching methods and notes. The course offers many options.
Other: I am interested in political science, so I chose this course. We gain knowledge of political institutions. Everything is fine. All events and activities are conducted at the highest levels. We enjoy them a lot.

One of my best memories is in Delhi.
Placements: In Maitreyi College, Horizon, the placement cell of my college, was doing so well and took up various opportunities for all the students looking for internships and placements. But, unfortunately for my course, Political Science, there are not many options or choices in the field of the private sector.
Infrastructure: Overall, the infrastructure of my college was good, but only for the arts section it was horrible at times, like in summers when we had our classes on the top floor with no cooler or AC. The canteen of our college was so good, and if the canteen workers were not good or misbehaving with anyone or charging extra cost, the tender would be given to another one.
Faculty: Our course curriculum was fantastic as I'm interested in this subject. The things we learned were so good. After gaining a basic understanding, you'll also start taking an interest in political matters, and once you reach that stage, exams will be so much easier for you.
Other: I loved the subject of Political Science because there are a lot of things to learn and explore, including real-life concepts and ideas. It broadens our perspective through global politics and international relations, with various subjects helping us understand why the world is the way it is.
