Horrible attitude issues with faculty. But there is good infrastructure .
Placements: Placements are average, which is around 70%. The average package was INR 4.5 LPA, the highest was INR 8.7 LPA, and the lowest was INR 3.2 LPA. Notable recruiters included publishing houses and media firms. 50% of students got internships at companies like Penguin Random House. The top roles varied from content writers to editorial assistants.
Infrastructure: The English Department offers decent facilities: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library. The hostel facilities and food in the mess are satisfactory. Medical support as well as sports facilities are available but could improve. Overall, there are no issues related to any facilities.
Faculty: Teaching, I would say, is a weak point here in the English department. The teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable, but they are not helpful at all and also not supportive; they have attitude issues and also skip classes; the curriculum is very lengthy; and exams are very difficult and very lengthy to write.

The food is bad in Aligarh Muslim university hostel.
Placements: Something around 40–50 percent of students get placed with the highest package of about INR 5–6 lacs per annum, while the average package goes up to INR 3–4 lacs per annum. Usually, undergraduates are invited by some top-notch companies like Amazon, Flipkart, and IBM. The internship program is also available, and usually 25%–30% of students are able to grab these opportunities.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is aesthetic as well as enabled with modern teaching. The classrooms are well furnished with a proper air conditioning system, Wi-Fi is available in the campus region, and the library is one of the most beautiful libraries in the world, equipped with tons of books. The hostel rooms are average in terms of cost, the food quality is sometimes too bad, and sometimes it is edible only, so it needs to improve.
Faculty: The teachers are very enthusiastic regarding their teaching method, but of course, some of them aren't like that; they are just there to attend the lecture. You need to go on with your studies, but I would like to point out a problem regarding some teachers: they don't give proper marks in literature subjects.

Faculty members are not good in our college.
Placements: Almost 50% of students got placed in this course. The highest salary package offered was 8 LPA. The lowest salary package offered was 3.5 LPA. The average salary package offered was 5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are TCS and Wipro. Around 30% of students got internships at companies like Hindustan Times and Harper Collins. Top roles offered are content writer, editor, and research analyst.
Infrastructure: Facilities are decent in this college. There is a huge library on our campus. Several books are available in the library. Hostel is average. Medical facilities are available but doctors and nurses are rude. Sports are average in this college. The food served in the mess is average. Canteen is also available.
Faculty: Teachers are knowledgeable and qualified but a few of them are not helpful. Teachers do not attend classes regularly and have terrible attitudes. The cut-off marks are unnecessary. The course curriculum is relevant. The teaching quality is great. Semester exams are difficult. The pass percentage depends on sessional and semester exams.

Best campus life in AMU.
Placements: For admission you first need to qualify AMUEEE and then after that you can get into this wonderful college. Most students don't usually go for placements after graduation but opt for masters and so did I. If you want placement, you can apply in many fields all differ in salary slightly for ex. you have content writing, teaching, script writing etc. And average package from AMU is 3.5 lacs per annum.
Infrastructure: The hostel campus is so big that you can not even tour the complete campus in one day barefoot. It is well maintained, and taken care of. The classrooms are cool and classy, the library has a very quiet environment which is great. The food of mess is good usually but most students prefer to eat from outside. Medical facilities are good and if you ask of sports, in AMU you have literally all sorts of sports and huge fields dedicated to a single sport, from horse riding to swimming, every sport is available, it's up to you.
Faculty: All faculty members are good and qualified and teaching quality was also satisfactory. The semester exams aren't very tough but that also if you study a little throughout the year, then you will not face any problems in the exams. Almost all the students pass the exams, and if you don't pass it, you can attempt a retest in the next semester.
Other: If you can bear the hot climate of Aligarh, then most welcome, and if not, yo might want to give it another thought. But I think the beauty of college is all about struggles so you should be ready for it.
