Top notch facilities at affordable price.

Placements: 1/4th of students who secured top ranks get easy placements among top universities and top MNCs, depending on their skills. Undergraduate students who apply for internship get more opportunities due to their reputation. Top course gets better placements, however, it is mainly dependent on individual skills and academic performance..

Neutral as per the course and faculty offered, and value for money.

Placements: The college offers no direct recruitment or placement opportunities. It does have a counseling and placement group under which the students can apply for the posted job profiles by themselves, but there's no direct support from the college. Though the professors always inform about the new opportunities being available, they are always available for guidelines. Still, the college does not provide any interview opportunities or allow any companies to visit the campus directly for recruiting stude...

Banaras Hindu University was one of the most famous universities of India.

Placements: I was not sure about the placement process. My course was not eligible for placements. I was here for higher studies, and the sociology subject attracted my interest. I was not sure about others who got placed here, but I was not offered any placements. Otherwise, this college was great.

My college experience at BHU.

Placements: Only 10-20% of students got placed in my course. The lowest package is 2.5 LPA to 4.5 LPA in my course. Top recruiting companies are Tata, Mahindra, and Reliance. Mostly the students got placed in Reliance and Tata. Top roles offered are accountant and finance.

very less course fee with all desirable facilities.

Placements: Only 18 students opted for History of Art in B.A. Final year, which was around 2.5% of total students admitted in my batch 2021. No such offer for undergraduate course. No recruiting companies for my course while I am studying. No one got internship from my course in my batch. .

Review of Vasant Kanya Mahavidyalaya.

Placements: Placements happen mostly for professional courses like management, IT, and commerce. For arts and pure Science students, there are fewer chances. The placement cell tries to guide students with training and workshops, but many prefer to continue their studies or write exams for government jobs.
