This college is good and gave us the best college life with lots of fun.
Placements: Only 2% of students secure placements through the college. The percentage of placement opportunities is quite low, and while the college does offer internships, the minimum pay of 5,000 per month is insufficient for students. There are many companies available for recruiting students, but the overall placement situation remains challenging.
Infrastructure: The college has good infrastructure, with many decorative elements throughout the campus, although some walls are not as appealing. The library is excellent, and the books are in good condition. The library staff is very helpful. The canteen is a great place to meet friends. The food served in the canteen is good.
Faculty: Our faculty members are a bit rude but still helpful. Exams provide us with a great experience in group studies overall. They are qualified and possess a strong knowledge base. This course offers excellent career opportunities in government exams and the teaching field as well.
Other: I chose this course because I want to do a Ph.D. in history.

Genuine review on Vivekananda college.
Placements: Placements are not that great, with only 2-3% of students getting placed. The highest and lowest salaries were between 1.5 and 4 LPA. On the plus side, internships are available on various platforms.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure at Vivekananda College is good, and the classrooms are spacious. The college provides WiFi on every floor, and the library has three floors and is well-stocked with books that are easily accessible to students. Although the college does not provide hostels, the canteen serves good food at affordable prices, and there is a medical room on campus. There is also a sports room and a good sports ground.
Faculty: The faculty is really good. They're well qualified and friendly. The teaching quality is good, and they don't cancel classes often. Semester exams are a bit difficult because you don't have enough time to complete the whole course in just three and a half months, but the pass percentage of students is almost 90-95%.
Other: I chose my course because I had a great interest in the subject. The best thing about my course is that history is not just about dates and events; it's also about the human perspective, ideologies, and how the world has changed over the ages. It also changes your perspective on life. The annual fest is like an event but it's good to experience new artists from different colleges. It's not like a big star concert organized by the college. The campus crowd is also fine; most of the crowd comes from Delhi NCR, but it's decent.

A good place for learning and really good faculty.
Placements: I was student of B.A. Programme and I had History and food Technology as my main subjects. We rarely had opportunities of placements. None of our whole course's students get any placement. Some Students of other courses like B.Com (Hons) have placements.
Infrastructure: Although we hadn't any hostel facility for students but the Library classrooms. Labs were good. Library facility was really good. But we had network issues in college premises. Wi-Fi was not accessible everywhere. But although it was good experience in way of learning.
Faculty: Our teachers were very good and helpful. They gave us the best lessons. And they were also supportive to students. We had to maintain 75% attendance to take part in exam. Passing marks were 33%. Some of the courses have practical examination also. Although exam process was good.
Other: I had chosen this course because with this course I can have knowledge of more than one subject. Other students from our course were also helpful and supportive. He had many educational and cultural events during my studies. Our college celebrates freshers party and annual fest every year. And we also celebrated many subject wise programmes during these 3 years. All over it was a really good experience in that college. After the COVID we had online classes. Teachers were also supportive in remote mode classes.

Review of Vivekananda College, University of Delhi.
Placements: Recruiting companies don't come to our college for any jobs and placements. Still, our college has its own placement cell. It is just a bachelor's degree, so a master's degree is necessary for a better career or job. Most of the students from our batch are preparing for PCS and IAS as they provide a good base.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is quite good. The Wi-Fi facility is great, and almost all the areas of the college have good connectivity. The library has all the required study materials. There is no hostel. Other than that, it has two auditoriums, canteen, hockey playground and racing track.
Faculty: Faculty members are very good, very knowledgeable, helpful and qualified. The teaching quality is up to the mark. The curriculum is much relevant that most of the government exams have almost the same syllabus. If your main goal is to crack government exams, then it is a good option.
Other: The best thing about our college is the fest season. There are different events like DJ evening and Dandiya night.
