Remarks

Overall, the college management was pretty good enough. However, they might need to pay some more attention on the college's infrastructure like better canteen and better washrooms.

Entrance Preview

Soon after my higher-secondary, basis on my grades, I got an entrance in BA Hons. English in Kalinidi College. There was no entrance test required for admission to this particular course.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

The course curriculum was widespread, including all the important parameters covered in English Literature. From novels to novellas. prose to verse, fiction to non-fiction, poets to authors, the course covered the roots of English Literature in its entirety.

Internships Opportunities

Big MNCs like Genpact, Accenture and GE came to the college for internship in the final year of the course. Stipend ranged from somehwre around 10k-15k per month.

Placement Experience

3.5

Pretty good. Quite a number of students were placed in campus recruitment in companies like Genpact and GE. They offered a decent salary package.

College Events

4

Lot of intra and inter college competitions were held to encourage students. Cultural and management festivals also happened on a large-scale. They had many societies within classes like English Literary Society and more, that looked the over-all functioning of that unit.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Extremely feasible, given that the college comes under Delhi University (DU) Board. An annual fees would be around 3000-4000 back in years 2007. However, the fee structure might have got revised by now.

Fees and Financial Aid

I have no idea in this regard. However, scholarship must be an important part of the college, as is in every Delhi University college.

Campus Life

2

Kalinidi college does not come in main DU campus. It's an off-campus college and thus loose the limelight of the campus life. However, there wasn't a thing that made the college less interesting. Regular workshops, cultural shows and competitions used to happen in the college, making the atmosphere alive.

Hostel Facilities

2

Pretty average. They need to improve on food standards. The canteen food was average, with less items on menu and a bland taste. This is however a thing of year 2007. Hope this has improved by now.

Alumni/Alumna

Strong alumni network. Till date we receive regular updates about the college achievements and lists. Teachers also maintain a great rapport with the ex-students.

Exam Structure

Exams were usually hectic with around 3 midterms before the final examinations. This however, gave us a flair to write our exam properly on the D-Day.

Faculty

4.5

Preety damn good. Very learned staff, always ready to help students with extra classes/lectures whenever required. The staff comprises of all senior and young lecturers - all of them extremely well-versed with the subject knowledge.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Regarding course curriculum, I am not satisfied the additional courses like SAC, VAC, AEC have no purpose, they are just a headache which makes it difficult for students to focus on the main subjects, although I am in favour of GE subjects. The marking scheme of 90 marks written paper and 70 marks for internal is also great. Apart from this talking about political science honours curriculum, I will say it is pretty great, there are difficult concepts and bulky material to study from but it could be improved by reducing the weight/ pressure put up by other subjects- sec,vac...

Companies visit are often at our college like Deloitte, wipro , Infosys , KPMG etc but options are wide only for commerce background students they are limited for arts faculty students like me. Highest package is about 6 to 7 lpa while most of the package ranges between 4 to 6 lpa percentage of students getting are average and they are mostly from comm letce and economic or business background. I would go for journalism and choose IIMC for my master's.
