All that you need to know about Dyal singh college DU

Students applying for English Hons in DU should be 12th pass and must have English as their core subject in the school. Where to find: All the updates regarding the admission process comes on the official website of du. There will be 5 to 6 cut-offs depending on the seats available. Once the cut-off comes students can apply for any college if their percentage meets the cut-off (one student can only apply for one college). After applying for the college, the college will review and check all the required documents. Once it's done confirmation mail will come and a payment link will be generated. And then it'll be done. I've applied under the OBC criteria and the cut-off was 2 percent less than the general one. Online admissions have been a total relief but it would have been great if students could apply to more than 1 college.

I wanted to go for BA in political science but the cut-off went to 100 or something for it so I didn't meet the eligibility criteria for that so I chose English Hons and also because I wanted to do a language course so I wanted a course which will not take much attention. There are many teachers in the English department (around 50 to 60). The student ratio is maybe 10:9 (girls: boys) Teachers and the whole faculty are very friendly and open, and also some of them are LGBTQ-friendly. They are very experienced and knowledgeable. There are two semesters in one year. Exams will be conducted once every semester in the end (after every 4 to 5 months). I had given online exams in the first semester which were easy as compared to the exams which were conducted in the 2nd sem offline mode. A student will be able to pass if he/she knows how to write stories out of summaries. They'll be able to get passing marks if they've read the summary of the books.

The same companies which had offered the jobs has also offered the internship opportunities. I haven't applied to any internship yet but I know from my seniors that they'll first know the skills you have and the company will give some training and then there will be some task that has to be done either individually or in a group.

Students can apply from the first semester for campus placements. Concentrix, fis global and many more companies have offered jobs in our college. I don't remember the names but some companies offered copywriting, content writing, etc. for the English department field. The highest was 2 lakh per annum. 4% out of 10% will get placement. I wanted to try social media management or digital Marketing after getting an English Hons degree.

The fee structure for English Hons is very affordable. Dyal Singh college comes under Delhi University and the fee structure of DU is quite affordable if compared to other private universities. For English Hons 14 to 15k has to be given for the fee if you are from the obc or general category. SC ST and students from PWD have to pay much less than the OBC and general ones. I've just completed my first year so I haven't got any jobs but I've seen my seniors getting a good package from on-campus job opportunities.

Priyadarshini is our annual fest and mostly is conducted in April. Our college has a very good library which has a ton of books. Students can get them very easily. Our college is mostly famous for boxing and we have archery, football, cricket, etc. sports, and our college also conduct some extracurricular activities in the art and creative field. We have a society named kriya that works for the LGBTQ community. It is run by the students and I've been a part of that society. It's great. And we have other societies too like enacts, Rotaract, virangna (women development, cell) etc.
