Overall, it's good for people who want to explore a new language.

Infrastructure: My college is one of the oldest buildings in DU. Though the infrastructure is currently improving day by day, some classes are still below average. My college doesn't provide any hostel, and Wi-Fi is still not available. There is also a lot of network issue.

Except for one or two, hostels are not available here; you need to find PG accommodation. Be careful if you are considering admission and live far from Delhi.

I'm not satisfied due to the low placement rate, as well as the infrastructure and facilities.

Infrastructure: In classrooms, all the required facilities are available. In the hostel, the infra is not so good, and proper hygiene was not there, but food provided was sufficient, a 4-course full meal was provided and is good in taste. The canteen in our college is not properly hygiene maintained, the utensils are cleaned outside in a dirty environment. Games and sports facilities are also available in college for students.
