Wonderful infrastructure and friendly environment.
Placements: Placements are no so good but some companies do visit the campus such as Zee news, etc. There were few students who got internship through our college. Every month, small firms visit the campus for providing internships. Our college is inclined more towards print media which opens vast opportunities for writers, reporters, etc.
Infrastructure: Awesome infrastructure with a big library which has different books. Labs are not so good. We have studios to get practical exposure. Experienced lecturers are available. Campus has different grounds for different sports. We have 2 really good and hygiene canteens which are nearby to our college.
Faculty: Exams are not so difficult. If you have attended each every lecture then you can easily score good marks. We have spent half of our college life in quarantine so we didn't get much exposure through practicals. Lectures are quite experienced and knowledgeable. Pass percentage is approximately 45%.

There is good infrastructure and great faculty members.
Placements: From our course, about 55% of students got placed. In our course, the highest salary package offered is 12 LPA, and the average salary package offered is 6 LPA. The lowest salary package offered is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies here are Bhopo, Dainik Bhaskar, Indore Jagran, etc. Approximately 30% of students got internships from our college in companies like Bhopo, Amazon, etc., for content writing and for anchoring. Most of the students who are interested and have skills easily got internship offers from my college.
Infrastructure: Our department (SJMC) is very well furnished with new infrastructure designs. There is a facility of a library, reading room, computer lab, research room, auditorium, etc. Our department is also sprawled over 3 floors with a drinking water and washroom facility on every floor. There is also a high-speed Wi-Fi facility in our department. The hostel of our college is average. There are facilities like Wi-Fi, mess, washing machine, TV, etc. The quality of food served is also not very good, but the menu is always diverse. There are safety and medical facilities as the warden will be available for 24 hours. There is a great opportunity in sports and games provided by our college.
Faculty: Teachers of our college are very well experienced and knowledgeable. They are very supportive and helpful. Their teaching quality is very nice, and the HOD is also very cooperative and helpful. Teachers of our department are very knowledgeable and teach very well. The curriculum of our course is relevant. Every topic and subject is logically placed in the curriculum. I think the curriculum of my college makes students industry-ready. The exams are not very difficult, and they contain only those things which have been taught in the classes. If students attend all the classes sincerely, then semester and exams would be easy for them. The pass percentage of our college is 90% to 95%. Students who do not attend a single class will fail in exams.
Other: I chose this course because I am interested in mass communication, and also this course helps in developing personality. I wish in our course there would be more practical knowledge and less theoretical knowledge. I wish there would be more seminars to understand the journey of journalists better. Many events are organised by the department like Youth Festival, international conferences and various cultural programs. Various kinds of scholarships are provided by our college based on merit. Our college offers great opportunities in various international conferences. Celebrities and famous personalities also join our online sessions from time to time. Our college offers participation in various sports activities at a different level and also a key role in Youth Festival organised every year.

Our college provides a great experience with good teachers.
Placements: It is a great campus with modern facilities, but I am not satisfied with the education provided here. Our college management doesn't work properly. About 30% of the students are engaged in internships, but my overall experience could have been better. Around 40% of the students got placed this year.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our campus is good, and the classrooms are spacious. There are different grounds for different sports. Our college hostels' condition is very poor, and most of the students prefer private hostels or PGs. The food served in the canteen, or Indian Coffee House attracts students very much. Students get support from the officials for sports and games.
Faculty: Faculty members in our college are very helpful. Most of them are extremely qualified and have a large area of knowledge in their field. Moreover, they are very lenient and do their best to help students. The course curriculum should be more relevant, and it should emphasise to make students ready for the job.
Other: I have chosen journalism because it is a powerful field, and I like the idea of keeping the public updated about what is going on around them. I wish our course should emphasise how they should teach the subjects today rather than emphasising what people used to do earlier. Many cultural events are held on our campus, and students are very friendly. Our fest is one of the biggest fests all over Madhya Pradesh.

Q:   Can a student get admission to DAVV without CUET?
ShikshaGPT says
A: 

Admission without CUET (Common University Entrance Test) is possible for some courses only like LL. M., and others. but for these courses,  CUET-PG is accepted by the university. So, students can get admission without CUET but the student have to change the course they are opting for. So, the best solution is to prepare in advance for the CUET and get admission in the relevant course. Seats are limited and candidates applying through CUET are many. Only good preparation can assist in getting admission to various courses like BTech, BSc, B.A. and others.

You can't get admission on the basis of your merit of class 12th until and unless you pass all the subjects of 12th. That's the minimum eligibility.

As far as I am aware, they claim to offer 100% placements for students from all backgrounds, but with realistically speaking, only about 90% are placed which is still a fairly good statistic.
