    I am happy with my college life and the people I have met.
    Placements: I have seen packages ranging from 5–6 LPA as the highest. 2–3 LPA is the lowest in my college. Many good and recognized companies have visited our campus, including Stubborn Factory and others. Some roles were offered in departments related to geopolitics and political issues. Around 9–10 students from my course were placed.
    Infrastructure: My course and faculty are very good and have good facilities. Although the college does not have a hostel. Overall, it is awesome. The Wi-Fi is strong, and labs are air-conditioned. The campus has two libraries and a separate reading room. There are also facilities for games like football, hockey, etc. The college has a large canteen where students enjoy.
    Faculty: Teachers are very good. They provide us with good guidance. They are well-qualified, experienced, and very knowledgeable. The faculty in my department teaches in a very good manner. The semester-based exams are neither hard nor easy. The pass percentage is not very high. The average CGPA required to pass is around 4–5.
    Other: Shyam Lal College hosts many events and fests. It has many active societies. Such as Enactus, Abhivyakti, NSS, and NCC. The best thing about my course is that, it is both valuable and interesting.

    Great vibes, supportive teachers, and loads to explore.
    Placements: I'm pursuing a B.A. (Hons) in Political Science, which has been an enriching academic experience. Regarding placements, around 30%-40% of students from our college. The highest package offered around 6 LPA, the lowest is 2.5 LPA, and the average package stood at approximately 3.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies include PRS Legislative Research, Oxfam India, Tech for India, Swaniti Initiative, and The Policy Times. About 50% of students received internship offers, either through college support or self-application. Internships are offered at places like Lok Sabha Internship. Top roles offered included policy research associate and political analyst intern.
    Infrastructure: The Political Science department offers decent infrastructure with Wi-Fi-enabled classrooms, a well-stocked library, and access to online journals. Classrooms are clean and spacious, but more smart classrooms and updated reading material would improve the learning experience. The hostel offers basic facilities with clean rooms and adequate security. Mess food is average but hygienic, while the canteen serves decent snacks. Medical aid is available on campus. Sports facilities exist but are limited in variety. Improvement in recreational areas and medical infrastructure would enhance the overall student experience.
    Faculty: Teachers of B.A. Political Science (Hons) are highly qualified, experienced, and very supportive. Their teaching methods are interactive and easy to understand. They encourage discussions and critical thinking, making classes engaging and insightful. The B.A. in Political Science (Hons) curriculum is relevant and well-structured. It builds strong analytical and research skills, helping students prepare for careers in civil services, policy, and academia. The semester exams for B.A. Political Science (Hons) is moderately difficult, requiring consistent study. Most students pass with good preparation, and the overall pass percentage remains above 85%.
    Other: I chose B.A. Political Science (Hons) due to my interest in politics and governance. The best part is engaging discussions, experienced faculty, and understanding real-world political systems deeply. The course is insightful, but I wish there were more practical exposure, internships, and an updated curriculum to match current political trends and career opportunities in policymaking and research. The campus hosts vibrant events and fests, with an energetic crowd and good connectivity. Surroundings are lively, scholarships are available, and extracurricular activities provide great exposure and overall development.

    College is great. It helps you grow not just professionally but in personal life as well.
    Placements: Almost 50% of the students can get placed through campus placements. Every year 500 plus offers come through campus placements. The highest package is around 36 LPA, and it is given to 3 students this year. The lowest package is around 4 LPA. The average package is around 9 LPA. Very few students get on-campus internships, and you have to look for them yourself. Top roles are usually offered in the finance and consulting domains.
    Infrastructure: Every room at SRCC has Wi-Fi and air-conditioning. The campus is small but has all the facilities. Infrastructure is much better compared to other DU colleges. Library is also great, students study there all the time. The sports complex is of an international level. College canteen is average, the food is edible but not very great.
    Faculty: SRCC faculty members for economics department are top notch. The eco honors curriculum is more relevant for the industry as compared to other courses. Semester exams are of a decent level considering, they are the same for the entire university. The passing percentage is 40%.
    Other: SRCC has the best fest in all of DU. There are more than 50 college societies dedicated to different cases.

    Delhi University College is one of the most satisfactory.
    Placements: Only a few courses have good placements. For B.Com Honours and Koshish, like English honours, you will go on a soldier placement, but they don't have that many would packages. A lot of students acquired a package of more than 30 LPA. You can easily secure a package if you are good at studying.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is pretty much acceptable, but it has a lot of dirty places. For example, sometimes the washrooms aren't clean at all, and sometimes what is available in the water taps and at the water dispenser, but that happens only a few times in one semester.
    Faculty: One thing I like to appreciate about them is their faculty and curriculum. If you are looking for a good faculty college. It is one of the best colleges you can opt for, and the curriculum and exams of pretty easy to I don't find them difficult.
    Other: I think they have the best campus life as everything is available nearby, the food counter is in coffee shops, and the surroundings are also very clean.

    Reality of School of open learning
    Learning Experience: As a DU Sol student, Content and syllabus is almost same like regular but we need to do by own. I have got books from university first time for this 6th Semester. Experience is below average because no exposure at all, but if someone is engaged in other career field it is good as we get enough time to go with. Developing skills is equal to 0. Pros are like If someone wants to go with other competitive exams can surely get enough time without any pressure, and cons like No personal development or exposure.
    Faculty: We get online classes on Saturday and Offline classes on Sunday in any DU college. Internal exams held online but theory exams of semesters held in particular college. Rarely students take lecture and personally I do the same.

    Good faculty members and infrastructure, but low placements.
    Placements: I am currently in the third year, 6th semester of college. Since the course is Political Science, direct placements are low. The highest package offered is 5-6 LPA. Companies like FMCG and KPMG recruit from here. Only 5% of students get placed. The quality of education is good, but placements are low.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my college has considerably improved. Wi-Fi facility is available in the college hours. Classrooms are spacious with natural lighting and electricity. A new library has been constructed, which is huge, with AC, fans, newspapers, and all kinds of books and resources. It has double the accommodation of the previous one.
    Faculty: Almost all teachers for my course are highly capable and great in their professions. Especially in the Political Science department, professors bring their high expertise and efficient teaching methods, which help us greatly. They provide us with insights and inspire us. Faculty members make the course interesting.
    Other: The reason I chose this course is my interest in Political Science and the scope it scope available to any other courses. The best thing of this course is that it is highly interdisciplinary, meaning you study parts of economics, public policy, history, and several other things in this paper. Apart from this, it is a scientific field that makes our minds more practical and teaches us the merit of both theoretical and empirical knowledge.

    Q: Β  Does DU conduct entrance exam for BA (hons) in political science?
    A: 

    DU does not conduct any entrance exam for admission to BA or BA (Hons) courses. However, it accepts the scores obtained by the students in the CUET UG exam for UG admission at any affiliated college. Having said that, students can get admission to Delhi University even if they didn't apply for CUET. While the chances of getting admission will be much lower, here are some of the ways a student can get admission to Delhi University without CUET:

    1. Take a chance on the spot admission: You can try your luck at the spot admission process, which is conducted by Delhi University after the CUET results are announced. However, the number of seats available under the spot admission process is very limited, so your chances of getting admission are slim.
    2. Apply for admission through the Delhi University School of Open Learning (SOL): The Delhi University School of Open Learning (SOL) offers a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate courses that do not require CUET scores. However, the admission process for SOL is more competitive than the regular admission process.
    Q: Β  If I have to apply for BA (Hons) in Economics in DU. What is the procedure to pursue the same?
    A: 

    The application process of Delhi University affiliated colleges for its BA and BA (Hons) courses start with the registration process of CUET. The first step is to register for the CUET by visiting the official website of the exam. Find a step-by-step guide to fill out the CUET 2023 application form in the following section:

    Step 1: Visit the official website of CUET and click on the "New Registration" tab. (https://cuet.samarth.ac.in/)

    Step 2: Fill in all the required details such as personal and contact details and generate a password to complete the registration process.

    Step 3: After completing the registration, move ahead to fill out the CUET application form by entering all the details in the given slots then click on “Save & Proceed”.

    Step 4: Upload all the scanned documents including photograph and signature.

    Step 5: Select any three courses and universities and after previewing the application form, click on “Submit & Make Payment” to proceed.

    Step 6: Complete the application process by paying an application amount through online mode.

    Those who qualify the exam are required to register on the DU CSAS portal (admission.uod.ac.in) for the final admission and college preference filling process. Based on the score in CUET UG, students receive admission calls in various rounds. 

    Q: Β  Is there entrance exam for BA (honours) in DU?
    A: 

    At the undergraduate level, the University of Delhi offers BA (Hons) across 29 specialisations out of which 23 offered merit-based admission and the remaining offered entrance-based (DUET) admission to the students till 2021. Additionally, the University also offers BA Prog. course across multiple subject combinations (across different colleges) in which admission is completely based on merit scores obtained by the students in Class 12. However, starting 2022, DU admission to all the UG courses will get conducted via CUET UG.
