    On B.A. Fees
    Q:   What is the cost of studying BA from Delhi University?
    A: 

    University of Delhi BA tuition fee is from INR 361 to INR 1.96 lakh. It varies based on selected course specialisation and the allotted college. 

    Q:   Do I need 60% in Class 12 to get admission in DU?
    3thumbs up
    A: 

    DU is considered one of the most competitive universities in India for Commerce, Science and Arts education at the undergraduate level. The university and its affiliated colleges was attracting the cream layer of crowd till the time admission was subject to Class 12 scores. While reserved category candidates still had minor chances of getting into a not-so-popular course of DU with 60% in Class 12, a General category student with 60% had no chance of getting into any good college or course at DU. 

    However, starting 2022, DU admission process has shifted to CUET-UG based admission process. Those with a valid score in CUET UG exam who have passed their Class 12 are eligible to take admission now. While the chances of getting into a good DU college are still low at this score, the chances of getting a seat have increased now (provided you score extremely well in CUET UG). 

    Q:   Can I select my colleges and courses preference under DU before DU seat allocation list is out for admission?
    A: 

    After the declaration of CUET (UG) results by NTA, the University of Delhi opened a preference-filling phase on its official website. Candidates are required to login on their CSAS (UG) dashboard to choose the courses they are willing to take admission if allocated. Candidates must give their preference for the course + college for every UG course selected by them.
    For filling the preferences of course & college combinations in which they are willing to take admission, they must do the following:

    • Choose multiple course + college combinations (It is in the best interest of the candidate to fill the maximum number of preferences)
    • Take utmost care while selecting the course + college combinations as the order of selection will also determine the preference order.
    • Reorder the preferences to prioritize the preference order of course + college combinations
    • The submitted preference order will determine the allocation of seat 

    Candidate must confirm their order of preferences for the course + college combinations by clicking on 'Submit' cutton on/ before the last day of the preference-filling. It is important to note - Editing the course + college combination preference list after the deadline of preference-filling will not be allowed. 

    Q:   Does DU offer scholarships to PG courses?
    A: 

    Yes, University of Delhi offers scholarships to PG students. Below are the details:

    Scholarship NameScholarship Amount

    DRC needs some development in infrastructure and serious attention in placement opportunities.
    Placements: DRC can definitely help in providing the right knowledge and will also help in getting the right ways to go ahead in a career. However, when it comes to campus placements, I am certain that I am not getting any opportunities whatever. Not just for my course, which has the smallest batch size, but even for courses like B.Com (Hons), students are stranded when it comes to campus placements.
    Infrastructure: Honestly, if I chuck out the new building, our facilities are not such that they earn bragging rights. The lawn is good and is cleaned daily, but still leaflets and some filth can be found on floors. Classrooms are well-equipped with projectors and smart boards. Sadbhawna Bhavan, which is the pride of DRC, also needs some development.
    Faculty: Since we have three major subjects, there are different HODs for all. All of them are handy and have made our department a sought-after one. So, faculty members of DRC leave no stone unturned in making sure that students do not just get the basic knowledge, but attain mastery from the college.
    Other: The crowd is decent, as we have a lot of girls from states like Jammu & Kashmir and Himachal too. Improvement is needed in hostels and hostel timings for sure.

    Satyawati College hosts some really good events all around the year.
    Placements: SBI, ICICI Bank, and likewise, some colleges do come for placements at our college. The course I am pursuing, History Hons, has zero placements. In short, the placements at Satyawati College are actually very poor indeed. So, if one wants placements, they should stay away from Satyawati College.
    Infrastructure: Most DU canteens are open, but ours is a fully AC canteen. Also, the new building has lifts available for students, and then we have water coolers and washrooms on each floor. There is a huge auditorium building, and finally we have a huge playground too as well. Hostels are not provided at Satyawati College.
    Faculty: Very renowned historians are the ones who are our professors. History is often considered boring or lengthy but even though it's lengthy, our faculty members haven't ever made it feel boring. I love history and wants to be a historian who knows real history and that was the motive behind choosing history major.
    Other: Crowd is pretty average, as low CUET scores can get you admission in this college. Two of the most prominent fests of Satyawati college are 'Umang' and 'Magnum'.

    DRC is a promising college for girls!
    Placements: Only commerce course students get placements. Arts course students hardly have anything left at the table when it comes to placements at DRC. The placement cell has already informed us about the names which comes for placement, and no core jobs are available for our course like Political Science.
    Infrastructure: Hostels maybe average, but they are in demand always. I am from Haryana, and my parents tried their best so that I could get the hostels, but it was already full by then. Rest about our college, it isn't that big in area but we have a huge lawn, one old and one new block and a building for recreation if I may call that.
    Faculty: We have the nicest humans because I was a little scared initially as 1st year in college and didn't know how to make a better first impression. All such doubts were left to rest when they themselves came and integrated with us. So, from orientation to lectures, our bond has only become stronger, and their teaching too is something that goes straight into our heads.
    Other: The crowd is mixed, as some girls I met here are really good, while some are rude. So I think I am going to have a great experience, and to make it better, I have joined two societies as well.

    Daulat Ram College is far more expensive than it should be.
    Placements: The most expensive DU college, and yet in the name of placements, it is among the worst. Students are mostly finishing their 4th year as they cannot fetch themselves any job, and that is the ground picture. Even our seniors have clearly told us to look for options off campus, as opportunities on campus are quite thin.
    Infrastructure: A hostel is available, but the kind of restrictive measures it lays down is unreal. The new building is fantastic, as the three-floor structure is well divided as per the courses. The old building now operates the admin part, and we have a separate auditorium building known as the cultural centre, Sadbhawna Bhavan.
    Faculty: Whatever is in their capacity, they are doing their best. On most Saturdays, there are doubt-solving classes, interactive sessions, or career-defining guidance. So, along with the course material, our faculty members teach us other valuable skills, and I am always grateful to them.
    Other: The crowd here is undoubtedly one of the best, as girls join from even remote areas like Ladakh. A campus that teaches everyone compassion is what the DRC crowd and campus are all about.

    Overall review for DRC, DU.
    Placements: Placements are a little bit disappointing when you are from a humanities background, they mostly offer placements for only Science and more for Commerce. Also, fewer placements are set course-based, and the salary package varies between 2 percent and 3 percent LPA only.
    Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are good. Although I am a day scholar, as much as I know and have visited the hostel and talked to residents, they give amazing reviews for the hostel. The food is decent, good, and hygienic, and the hygiene and sanitation are the best things in this college.
    Faculty: Teachers are so helpful, sweet, and cooperative. This college conducts mid-semester exams to check exam preparation and takes reviews from student to student. They also listen to each and every student's problems. Furthermore, the principal is very helpful towards students and open to listening to any kind of problem and providing solutions. Punctuality for coursework and classes is 10/10.
    Other: Fests, events, and campus life are so decent and generous. This college also has one-on-one sessions with mental health specialists and offers special rooms for faculty study and the mental health department. The only thing they need to improve is water availability. The infrastructure is also very good, with new building access for everyone.

    Apart from placements, everything is good about DRC.
    Placements: Daulat Ram College ranks low among the women's colleges in DU, and the prime factor that adds to that is unfortunate placements. Even for Economics Hons, which is one of the top courses in DU, our college placement cell struggles to find core opportunities, let alone for the other courses.
    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.
    Faculty: They carry a novelty, and studying under them is a novelty as well. They set such a high-class teaching standard, and rules are also quite strict, every single lecture missed means we have to face a series of questions from them. Thus, maintaining good terms with them requires one to be present in every class.
    Other: Our department fest is called Economania, which is a one-day fest. Symposium is our consulting fest, and our annual cultural fest is Manjiri.

    Honestly, both DU and LPU have their own advantages, but I'd definitely consider LPU for law. I studied MBA at LPU, and one thing I liked was the overall campus environment, the approachable faculty, and the exposure you get by interacting with people from different backgrounds. For law, moot courts
