DRC has taught me one thing, and that is how to be inclusive!

Infrastructure: It is difficult to name one point of college facilities as they are all impressive in their own ways. Hostels, definitely the need of the hour, and our college has built a really good girls' hostel. For sports, a new sports complex has been added, and it is getting bigger and better each year.

DRC is the best college for pursuing interests outside academics.

Infrastructure: For infrastructure, it is a 10/10 as hostel rules are strict, but besides that, facilities at our college are among the best across girls' colleges in DU. Our sports complex is the biggest in any girls' college, and in canteens, we have multiple options. Classrooms and lectures are now held in the new building, while the traditional building is used only for admin purposes.

Apart from placements, everything is good about DRC.

Infrastructure: There is one main building alongside a newly built three-floor building. One area that sees a massive upgrade is our sports complex, as sports like Boxing and Kabaddi are added to it. The Nescafé shop remains at our college, and since most girls here are coffee lovers, it is easy to spot the majority of students there.

Ramjas College's events are all high-octane.

Infrastructure: The six-floor building where our classes are held is amazing, as all our classrooms now have ACs. The new block is fully equipped. Our entire campus has the best greenery among all the other colleges of North Campus. Even our playground may be small, but it's lush green.

I would totally recommend it to everyone.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, library, and everything are of top-notch quality. Other facilities and infrastructure are also of a great level. The food served is very healthy. We also have a medical room where we can go during an emergency. There is a large ground for sports and games where we usually have our sports classes and different activities.

You're kind of on your own, so join good societies.

Infrastructure: No hostel is available. No AC is available in the classrooms. Most classrooms are spacious though. Wi-Fi is present, but it doesn't work that well. The food in the canteen is fine. The library has Wi-Fi and laptops for students' usage. However, there could be smart boards and a well-managed body to look after these things.

PGDAV Evening College has good academics, but placements are poor.

Infrastructure: One of the best things is that a major bus stop, Nehru Nagar Bus Stop, is just two minutes away. The two-floor, air-conditioned library is the best part of our infrastructure. Needless to mention, the sports ground is one of the largest, and the auditorium is also one of the largest. We have a canteen that serves only vegetarian food, and it is very budget-friendly.

Very good facilities and infrastructure.

Infrastructure: The classrooms are very nice, as they have AC, which many DU colleges don't offer. The library is also very nice. It has all kinds of books, is air-conditioned, and people are very quiet inside. Labs are also very well-furnished. The laptops work very well. Lastly, the Wi-Fi on campus is pretty slow.

A decent college with recent developments but still there is room for improvement.

Infrastructure: The hostel has been closed since I've come to college due to construction. So I cannot say much about it, but other than that, the classrooms are pretty decent. Some have projectors. Hygiene is also maintained, as I've seen the workers clean classrooms on a daily basis. The food available in the canteen has seen improvement since the college has signed a contract with new vendors. Sports facilities are pretty average.

The college campus life is good.

Infrastructure: The college has a good infrastructure, Wi-Fi, library, and gym. The hostel is under restructuring for 2 years, so there is no idea about it. Our department classrooms have proper electricity and Wi-Fi connectivity, but the projectors there are not working. Some of the charging ports never work at all. The washrooms of some floors are clean and hygienic enough to use.

Satisfied because of the brand name and placement opportunities.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is very good compared to that of other DU colleges. Our college is fully air-conditioned, with smart projectors in each classroom. There are two major issues. First, the college Wi-Fi never works properly. Second, there is no network signal in the classrooms. The other issue is that our college is too small, and we do not have enough classrooms or space.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my college is too good. Centralized AC is available in all the classes. The structure is also very appealing, and it itself is very positive.

I am satisfied with the college.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good, except for the fact that the hostels are closed the same year we come as freshers. The washrooms are a bit unclean, but it is being worked upon. Apart from that, the classes are good and do not seem like a hazard when compared to other colleges.

Great competitive atmosphere, but faculty could have been a bit better.

Infrastructure: Facilities available are good enough in terms of classrooms. The auditorium is great. However, from what I've heard, the quality of the food in the hostel is not that great. A lot of people opt for PGs for this exact reason. Overall, the infrastructure is good.
