Remarks

Just this, that, improve the fun activities a bit and a playground if possible somewhere. It's really required and a good fest.

Entrance Preview

I didn't need to take an entrance exam i was selected through a process based on my +2 results so, I got through during the third phase of counselling for arts and all here, you don't need a test.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

It was broad to be very honest a lot of literature Shakespeare to Keats Milton to Dante a lot someone who loves English and wants to read and be buoyed away the brilliance of the writers in the history, should definitely take up but it's not easy end under CU. IT'S HARDER.

Internships Opportunities

We didn't get internships for English and all not at all for other departments, i don't know but for English we didn't have internships so, I have no idea about that.

Placement Experience

2

We didn't have a placement programme while the job opportunities are great for a literature student, it's always better to do your masters and then look for one it not only enhances your CV but lets you earn more also that's what I have heard so, do it then Masters and then look for a job.

College Events

2

We actually didn't have much celebration going on in our college normal occasions were celebrated but it was more of a study first place. It kinda is a negative but it helps to maintain the quality of the studies to be very honest but yeah it was a bit boring.

Fee Structure And Facilities

It's a very feasible college it's a government college man so, it was actually for everyone out there the whole fee of the month amounted to what somewhat around 375. Yeah you saw that right so, it gives you good education and it is actually for everyone to afford.

Fees and Financial Aid

I have not availed any scholarships so I don't have a clear idea but yeah scholarship programs are there and also disability ones so, if someone needs it am sure they will get it.

Campus Life

3.5

Campus life was boring warning you before hand we don't have a ground as such to play or a good place to chill. Yes there was a BD Court and common room and that's was all so, if you want that look somewhere else. But you can play badminton, carrom and TT we have an okay gym so one can hit that too.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

I didn't stay in the hostel so, I don't know quite there were hostels nearby of what I was aware and they were decent if not very good or something. But, you will get to stay in Esplanade so transportation, food and living for that matter shouldn't be a problem at all. It's cheap really.

Alumni/Alumna

Well I didn't socialise much when I was in college so don't know much of the seniors but of the few I knew they were nice and really helpful everyone there is actually so its a good experience.

Exam Structure

We didn't have lab work we had to study the poetry, proses, novels of great writers what lab work can be done here we had more research oriented stuff actually so we had to do a lot of research on their writing styles and all we had annual exams for three years under the university.

Admission

I was selected through a process based on my +2 results so there were lists out every week and if someone didn't take up admission, then the next person in the list would be called and so on. So, I got through in the third list people left after that also and more were added to form a strength of 36.

Faculty

3.5

The teachers are really good and helpful well, if not all most they're approachable, communicate well and they know their thing that's the best thing about them at times it gets a bit irritating and you're like they are saying the same stuff but that is literature for you.

Course Curriculum Overview:

There are several prospects, especially peer-to-peer counseling, where you get a mentor. We call it mentor mentee program. So, there will be groups of students, and each group will have a mentor who helps you whenever you face any issues whether in real life or in your academic journey. They’re always there for you. There are also remedial classes, and extracurricular activities are included in the curriculum. You even get the freedom to choose what you want to pursue creatively, like joining poetry clubs and similar groups. Right now, I’m at Banaras University, and the curriculum here is really good. We have sessions on public speaking, how to conduct interviews, and many other practical skills. These are highly commendable because they help you in professional situations like the one I’m in now. However, I would say that teachers could be a bit more active with electronic tools like using PPT presentations or audio-visual methods instead long lecture sessions. As for exams, I wouldn’t say they’re too difficult because there are many weekly assessments and sessionals, which actually help you evaluate yourself better.

I used to read so many novels from my childhood and that inspired me in getting attracted to this field. We used to have the fecility of having seminar in the end of every month after compleating of each lessons. And this process helped us in true education. After every year professors from differnt parts of the country used to come for a seminer for overall groth of the students. Actually is theory teaching style is followed in the college, according to me some developments in the practical teaching can be used. Semister is held at the end of every six months and the exams are used to be moderate in nature.
