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 The syllabus is similar to regular DU, but the study material feels a bit outdated.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.

Good Infrastructure and management in collage
Learning Experience: The course carriculum is well structured and covers essential theoretical concepts ,making it a strong foundation and learning.The syllabus is regularly updated .the inclusion of more practical training,internships and projects would further strengthen the curriculum
Placements: guess,students become eligible for campus placements from 5th semester companies like wipro ,Infosys,flipkart,cisco,accenture ,amazon,TCS and various popular companies provide placements here packages start from 6 lakh per annum and can range upto 40 lakhs
Faculty: The student to faculty ratio is 10:1,ensuring that students received proper guidance .Most professors are approachable and encourage students to ask question during and after lecture. Some faculty members stand out due to their teaching methods ,and student friendly approach,interactive discussions make their learning engaging. The examination system consist of two internal exam and a final semester exam in each semester The exams are quite difficult but those who attend classes regularly and prepare well find them manageable
Course Support: I would rate the course curriculum at 10/10 in terms of relevance and comprehensiveness. The curriculum in well structure, up to date, and designed to provide a strong foundation in chosen field and great in future.

There is a lot to include, but mainly the infrastructure is good and well maintained.
Learning Experience: I personally haven't got any internship but some of my friends got. They are very happy with the internship as the college provide benefit of attendance to them and allow them to take leave from the college. The stipends of the internship is decent as compared to other colleges.
Placements: The Placements are quite good as compared to other 3rd tier colleges in raipur, i am personally not placed in any company as i am a 3rd year student but my sister got a really nice job when she graduated in 2020. She did get a job of 3.5LPA from a company named Technical technologies,
Faculty: Almost all the facilities are good except few like HOD of IT department, he is very strict and he just try to find an opportunity for him to scold the students As I know IT department teachers very well, they all are good and they give marks very generically. I am very much satisfied with the marking scheme of the teachers.
Course Support: I came to know about this college from my sister as she is also graduated from this college and when i joined the college the seniors guided me as well and told about everything about the course, marking scheme and all. The college also conducts sessions for the students to engage with the famous personalities.

Reality of School of open learning
Learning Experience: As a DU Sol student, Content and syllabus is almost same like regular but we need to do by own. I have got books from university first time for this 6th Semester. Experience is below average because no exposure at all, but if someone is engaged in other career field it is good as we get enough time to go with. Developing skills is equal to 0. Pros are like If someone wants to go with other competitive exams can surely get enough time without any pressure, and cons like No personal development or exposure.
Faculty: We get online classes on Saturday and Offline classes on Sunday in any DU college. Internal exams held online but theory exams of semesters held in particular college. Rarely students take lecture and personally I do the same.
