    The college is great if we have other plans, or else not so much.
    Learning Experience: I am doing my BA program in English from SOL (DU). Honestly, it is okay if we are someone who needs flexibility. The syllabus is similar to regular DU, but the study material feels a bit outdated. Classes are mostly online, which helps manage other things side by side. There is very little interaction or guidance. Updates on the portal are slow. It is affordable and gives us time to explore other skills or prepare for exams, but we really have to stay self-motivated. Career-wise, it is recognised, but we need to build our own exposure and experiences outside of it.
    Placements: There is no proper placement or internship support in SOL. We have to find opportunities on our own. It is best for those who want to focus on other goals along with graduation. Otherwise, with minimal guidance and no campus exposure, it can feel like a time waste. I still gave it a 4 rating because someone who is pursuing something else too, for them, it's really helpful without much burden.
    Faculty: Since it is distance learning, faculty members' interaction is minimal. The course structure follows DUs pattern but lacks depth and engagement. Assessments are purely theory-based with no feedback. Overall, we are mostly on our own, so self-study and initiative are key.
    Course Support: Course support is quite limited. Updates are often delayed, and it is hard to get quick responses to doubts. There's no regular mentorship or academic guidance. Most help comes from peer groups or external sources. If we are stuck, we usually have to figure things out ourselves.

    For Better Learning - DU SOL.
    Learning Experience: As a student who has been through the ups and downs of distance learning, I can confidently say that DU SOL has been a game changer for me.
    Placements: They make you job-ready but do not provide placements or jobs. Instead, they prepare you for government jobs, equipping you with all the necessary skills and facilities.
    Faculty: The teachers and staff at DU SOL are supportive and helpful. They are always available to clear doubts and provide guidance.
    Course Support: Despite a few minor drawbacks, I wholeheartedly recommend DU SOL to anyone seeking a flexible, affordable, and quality education. The university's commitment to providing accessible learning opportunities is truly commendable.

    School of Open Learning DU.
    Placements: The SOL does not provide any kind of placement. No students were placed in any companies from the School of Open Learning. Hence, if you want placement, then you should not prefer the SOL. No roles were offered, and no interviews were conducted. No efforts were made for the placement of the students.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the building is good and attractive. College does not provide WiFi facilities to their students. Classrooms are old and need to be designed and renovated. The quality of food in the canteen is average. There is no hostel for SOL students. Students participate in various sports and games at the University of Delhi, but there are no games and sports facilities for the SOL students. However, apart from all these things, the library is genuine and good. Students can borrow books.
    Faculty: The most of faculty are adhoc basis professor and they are not permanent. The professors are well qualified but not too much professional. However, some of them teach very well and some not. The course of B.A. is very relevant and provides you knowledge of different topics related to your society and surrounding. The exams are quite difficult and may be challenging but you can crack them by focusing on your studies. 40% is the minimum marks you need to pass.
    Other: This course content and curriculum was the extension of Humanities studies which I have done in my 11th and 12th class. I couldn't choose the B.Com and B.Sc. hence I prefer this one. The college should improve the way of learning and they should improve the quality of classes. They should also provide the scholarship and placement to SOL students. The festivals and events should also organize for the SOL students.
