Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is it tough to get admission to the JNU MCA programme?

JNU MCA admission is based on a valid Central University Entrance Test (Postgraduate) CUET-PG score. CUET PG is an all-India-level entrance exam conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA). According to test-takers, the General Test was easy and the Domain Knowledge section was moderate to tough. Although the questions were on the expected lines and within the CUET PG syllabus but according to some students, a few questions were out of the syllabus and tricky. So, the JNU MCA entrance is not very tough but can be tricky.

B.A. (Hons.) in Korean - Batch of 2026

4.4

4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

B.A. in Korean Studies at JNU.

Placements: Basically, if you are very good at the Korean language, you can get a decent job in the private sector. There is no placement cell right now, but it will be there in the upcoming few years. You need to make connections on LinkedIn and get placement on your own. Our alumni help a lot in securing a good position.

Infrastructure: The course is excellent. Books are updated, and they are designed to current market trends. Our professors update our course every semester with market trends. The hostel is decent; with the hostel fees, it is excellent. There are some old hostels that have some issues, but they are under renovation.

Faculty: Teachers are exceptional. They are very friendly and helpful. They all have experience in Korea, so they are almost equivalent to native speakers. The curriculum is good. You will have ample time for your self-studies. Regarding exams, we have 2 sessionals in which you have to pass at least 1 and then the end semester.

4Placements4Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Very good placement for the current year (2025–2026). Cultural events happen almost every week.

Placements: In the 2025–2026 placement session, a very good number of students got placed in highly reputed companies. Most of my seniors got packages above 12–13 LPA, and some got placed off campus with the highest package of 40 LPA+. Top roles like software developer, etc., are offered during on-campus placements.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure for my course is decent. A new building for engineering students is getting ready along with a hostel for more than 2500+ students. Labs are really good, classrooms are fully ventilated and fully AC. There are 21 hostels with very good quality rooms and very tasty food at a very affordable price.

Faculty: Teachers in my course are really helpful and highly qualified. I would say the teaching quality is excellent. The course curriculum is strictly followed by teachers as well as by students. Coming to semester exams, I would say exams are pretty difficult, not too much, but you have to study daily to get good grades. There are 4 exams in one semester (2 quizzes, mid-semester, and end-semester).

Other: The crowd of JNU is very mature and good. Campus life is excellent. Sports facilities are also excellent since this is the best university in India.

4Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life4Value for Money

Decent enough college (according to the fee and all).

Placements: Decent enough placement if you take the fact into consideration that it is recently established, and also the fact that the faculty are not up to that mark. The highest on-campus package is around 18 LPA, and off-campus is 36+LPA. The median package of 2024 was 8 LPA, so yeah, it offers a decent package for what its fee is.

Infrastructure: The hostel could be way better, especially for B.Tech students, as we are the highest fee paying students in JNU. The hostel (Damodar) is roughly 2.54 km away from ELC, where our classes are conducted, and other labs like the computer lab are still 1.54 km away, so that is also an issue, as we don't have any buses from Damodar.

Faculty: Faculty are like children, they will teach you everything if they like, or they will leave everything if they are not willing to. Some are like they are said to teach on gunpoint, and some are like they just read the topic yesterday and are teaching us today.

Other: A lot of other courses students, diversity in its speak.

B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2027

4Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

A college that is full of natural and intellectual beauty.

Placements: The placement percentage is around 40%. Packages aren't yet disclosed, but the maximum is 39 LPA. Top recruiting companies include S&P Global, Linkiss, Antino Labs, Barclays, IBM, and various other startups. Roles offered are SCRUM master, data analysis, application developer, devOps and many more.

Infrastructure: 24/7 Wi-Fi, a hostel with good food, and a living facility at a very affordable price. A 24/7 open central library with a very versatile and large collection of books and journals, newspapers, articles, and many more things. A different cyber library for students who are pursuing CS Engineering.

Faculty: All the facilities are knowledgeable and well-qualified. Teaching standards are also very good. Standard books are followed as part of the curriculum. We are encouraged to work in teams on real-world projects. So it is making us industry-ready. Exams are, as usual, in engineering colleges, I will regard them as average, neither very tough nor easy. The pass percentage is also good.

Our college is overall nice, and it's improving every year.

Placements: In my university, the School of Engineering is new, and it was started in 2018, the first batch graduated in 2022. So placement is average, but it's improving every year. Companies like IBM, S&P Global, Amdocs, Emphasis, Antino, etc., have come, and students were placed.

Infrastructure: Our building for the School of Engineering is under construction, and it may take up to 2 years to finish. Our current classes are going on in ELC (Engineering lecture complex), which is good with good benches, a projector, and good Wi-Fi, but still not the best. At present damodar hostel is allotted to engineering students, but students can also take other hostel also in the university. Hostels are overall average because they are old. The best hostel at present is Barak. The quality of food provided in the hostel is decent.

Faculty: Teachers are nice, and they are well-qualified. Some of them are also very chill and not the typical university professor. Our curriculum is similar to that of IIT Delhi, and it includes everything that the present industry requires. Semester exams are not very difficult, but they are also not very easy, and there is relatively marking in exams.

Other: The campus crowd in JNU is nice, and events and festivals are also good. The university also provides education fees for students on the basis of their parents' annual income.

2Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life3Value for Money

Good faculty members, not good placements.

Placements: Placements are quite low, considering we would be the 5th batch for a university that has a great name. Right now, for the 2027 batch, there are no companies that have come for an internship. So choose wisely, as placement reports aren't published.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is decent, and the hostel is something you would love for its affordability. The classroom is decent, library is filled with good books. Mess is okay-ish, and canteens are affordable. The medical facility is also decent. Sports are okay-ish (I am not a sports person, so not an actual complaint). The gym totally needs to be improved.

Faculty: You'll have top-notch faculty, no doubt about that. You will have faculty who genuinely want to teach. You'll have teachers who have taught in foreign universities and are holding Ph.Ds from IITs. So that's quite good. The curriculum is updated so that it won't be an issue. I don't have an idea about ECE labs, though.

Other: I chose this course because of the JNU tag, and I wasn't getting Comp Sc anywhere. There are no fests (like grand ones), it's like school programs where you sit in an auditorium to watch people getting awards for their accomplishments, and a few people performing a dance. You would beat the heart of Delhi, so surrounding is great.
