It is a fabulous college.
Placements: Direct on-campus placements are very limited (around 10-30% placement rate). The average salary package for B.A. graduates is typically INR 1.5 LPA - 3 LPA. Most B.A. students either pursue higher studies, M.A., or competitive exams like UPSC/PCS, and you can try for it.
Infrastructure: B.A. infrastructure is basic but functional, with classrooms and a central library. Wi-Fi availability is campus-wide but can be inconsistent. Hostel is basic. It has affordable rooms. Food quality and fee around is INR 22,000/year (including mess).
Faculty: DDUGU B.A. faculty members are generally well-qualified, knowledgeable, and helpful. B.A. curriculum is comprehensive, based on the NCERT. Exams are annual/semester-based with varying difficulty. 60% is the pass percentage.
Other: Beautiful moments at this college we spend with our friends and professors. They teach well here.

Review about DDU Gorakhpur.
Placements: I'm doing a B.A. So there's no placement regarding B.A. But I know MBA students who got placement on average in 5 lacs. They require an affordable amount of admission. In my course, they offer the degree of graduation, which can be used for future studies.
Infrastructure: Deen Dayal Upadhyay University Gorakhpur has the largest campus in the city. The infrastructure is very nice and they provide a very large area for every field. The hostel has good ventilation and a large area with proper cleanliness and hygiene. Large field for every sport.
Faculty: The faculty has very good knowledge about their respective programs and their ability to teach is very good. They provide a good quality of education. The study makes students eligible for future courses. The semester is almost good. It's not very hard if you've studied well. There are 2 semesters in 1 year. The passing percentage is 37%.

Really very nice campus with a beautiful environment .
Placements: A very good number of students have been placed in our course in the last two years due to our active and helpful placement cell. They take care of every student in getting good placement packages. 20 percent of students get placements every year on average. INR 4 lacs was the highest package last year, and INR 2 lacs was the average package in overall packages, which is not so good but is acceptable. Senior archaeologist is the top role offered in the course.
Infrastructure: First of all, this campus is great at providing good facilities all the time. They take care of each little thing on the campus. Every classroom is kept neat and clean every time. A proper cleaning cell is available in every department to take care of it. All classrooms have AC and the fastest Wi-Fi connection, along with smart boards for online studying. There are good labs and libraries on campus for all of us. Hostel management is not good due to unhygienic mess and a high fee structure. The canteen is very good on this campus, with all food items present in it at very low and affordable prices.
Faculty: Teachers and faculty members are very helpful and highly qualified. They have years of teaching experiences in different universities in India, so they know how to teach perfectly, and their teaching method is excellent. Every semester exams are easy, as questions on exams come from class notes only made by faculty members, so daily class is required to get good marks in exams. The passing percentage in every semester is more than 95%. This course's curriculum is very relevant, and it is also an industry-ready course.
Other: A good scholarship benefit is available in this course, in which we get Rs 5500 every year from the CM side of the state. This campus has a sizable student body. This course has the best fees and faculty members, so I chose it over others.

Faculty: Teachers were great, with the best teaching qualities. They were highly qualified and trained in their subjects. They taught us very well.
