Very good college according to the name.
Placements: The college has decent placement opportunities. Mainly, students from fields like B.Com or B.Sc. graduate take part in the placement cell. There is a separate placement society which provides details about placement and internship opportunities. Not big companies, but decent companies. Other than that, a few low-grade companies came to the college. They provide placement to good students.
Infrastructure: Accommodation is a very big problem in this college. You have to take a PG or flat because no accommodation is provided by the college. You can find Wi-Fi around the college campus, but it is in certain specific areas like the library or computer labs.
Faculty: The curriculum of each and every course is according to the New Education Policy 2020. It is very decent and very good, I will say. You have to put in some extra effort from your side if you want to be better in this college. Teachers and faculty members are very good.
Other: You get to see a lot of different types of societies like debating society, cultural society, and dance society. Nowadays, chess societies are also created in the college. Other different types of things like cultural events, etc. are there in the college.

All is good but there are some problems with the exam form at the time of registration.
Placements: I am from a commerce background and I have done my graduation from Delhi University NCWEB. They also provide placement opportunities to us and there are some vacancies in companies like Wipro, Tata Spectrum, and many more. From our course there are some students who got internship and job opportunities from those companies.
Infrastructure: They provide good facilities to use and create a new building also. The canteen is also good. Classrooms are big and there are also arrangements for sports games and other activities. The problem is that the washrooms are in bad condition and the water is not coming from the tap.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and qualified. They provide study material to their students and help them in every situation. Semesters are very easy and give many chances to us. Our TIC is also nice and helpful. They provide all the information on WhatsApp.
Other: I chose this course because I am from a commerce background, and the best thing is nature. There are many plants and also a small river.

Dyal Singh - Prime college of Delhi University.
Placements: About 20-30 percent of the total students enrolled in the programs get placement from the college. The companies that participated in the placement are not very reputed. About 4 LPA-5 LPA packages are seen for the B.Com students. The placement cell is not effective at all.
Infrastructure: The college is infrastructure is very good and have all major facilities of fan, light and proper ventilation. The library of the college is too amazing, having a space for about 100 students at a single time. The washrooms too are neat and clean. The canteen provides very good food.
Faculty: The teachers are good in behaviour. The teachers enrolled are highly qualified and educated providing a good education to the students. The course curriculum is very easy to understand and helps in gaining practical knowledge and skills simultaneously.

Amazing faculty and crowd, top-class societies, but infrastructure can be improved.
Placements: As per my course, B.Com (Hons.), 30-40% of students get placed. The highest placement is 22 LPA. The average is 6 LPA. Deloitte, PwC, EY, and KPMG are the top recruiters of our college. 200 students got internships, including students from the B.Com programme. Top roles could be Assistant Research Analyst, Financial Analyst, etc.
Infrastructure: My college provides comfortable classrooms and an air-conditioned library. There is a well-maintained botanical garden for students. ICT labs are also well-maintained and air-conditioned. We have medical rooms and a sports arena. Hostels also have separate AC reading rooms for girls and boys. The canteen of our college is hygienic.
Faculty: Teachers are quite friendly and approachable. They use engaging teaching methods in the classroom. I think the curriculum is not up to modern-day skill requirements. But still, teacher support beyond the syllabus helps students in their careers. Semester exams are moderate.
Other: I chose Venky because of its corporate structure. SVC has many societies, and among them, two are international: 180 DC and IFSA. Our college organizes one of the best fests of DU, Nexus. But I think the infrastructure can be improved to bear Delhi weather. During the rainy season, water gets clogged in front of the gate, and it is quite difficult to sit without AC in the summer season.

The college life of Shivaji College, DU.
Placements: 1 percent of students got placed from my course. The highest package is 7 LPA and the lowest is 1.29 LPA. The average package is 3 LPA. No companies visited for my course. No one got any internship. No specific role is offered for my course students. The companies that came to recruit are mostly for sales and HR roles.
Infrastructure: We have a computer lab which is the best infrastructure for our course. New classrooms are good and old classrooms are well designed. Canteen is good. First aid medical facilities are there, but not for serious illness. Necessary sports equipment is not there.
Faculty: Faculty is great and thus the teaching quality is awesome. The course curriculum of DU is not relevant to the real world but it is. The semester exams are not difficult. You just have to study for 1 night before the exam. If you do that, you pass very easily.

Janki Devi - Best off-campus college.
Placements: Placements offered by the college are decent with EY being the top recruiter for commerce. The placements are also offered. The percentage of students placed is around 60-70 percent from B.Com and Commerce courses with average package ranging from 6 LPA to the highest 10 LPA.
Infrastructure: The campus is beautiful, full of greenery and with different types of flora. There is a cat on campus with 3 kittens that roam around the hostel and NCC grounds. The library is a great place for self-study, fully air-conditioned, and full of useful resources covering every course.
Faculty: Semester examinations are decent and moderately difficult but with regular classes students can score decent marks. Teachers are good and help you ace your exams well. Course curriculum is designed with NEP regulations, and practical learning is implemented.
Other: Fests are good and you'll enjoy them.

According to me, if you are getting a seat in DU, choose it as your priority. DU is a better choice in terms of academics and affordable fees. 

LPU is a good option if you want modern infrastructure, a diverse campus, practical learning, internships, and placement support. But the decision is yours,
