A DU women's college

In conclusion our college is a fine place for striking a balance between extra curriculars and academics. The infrastructure could see a little improvement but the current authorities are working on it diligently and lots of new amenities have been added for a fresh year.

I opted for this college mainly because of the moderately lower cutoffs compared to the other Delhi University colleges. The infrastructure was very good and the students of the college were very helpful regarding admission criteria. The accessibility of a metro station was not as bad either. Being a woman's college it was pretty safe too.

The course curriculum in the philosophy department is diverse as well as interesting but not too drab. Each semester tackles a completely different avenue of the vast subject of philosophy and helps develop young minds. So far we have covered Indian and Greek philosophy as well as logic and ethics. Each of them was extremely intriguing and diverse.

Our college provides internships with the placement cell. The overall experience is good. This provides an opportunity to add something to a CV.

The placements opportunities are not adequate. I have just completed my first year at this college so I may not be aware of all of the information but since ours is an arts and commerce college, the placement opportunities are limited and only reach out to the economics students or the commerce students.

Our college never fails to celebrate an occasion. From Republic day to the independence day. Various cultural societies are involved in the preparation of these shows. In addition to hosting the Bollywood celebrity Varun Dhawan, our college has organized the Sahitya Kala sammelan for the Hindi Academy. Also, each major society and department of the college organizes a fest throughout the academic year.

The fee structure is pretty affordable since it is a government college. The annual fees for my course is under nine thousand rupees. The fees may vary for other courses but it remains more or less around the figure of ten - eleven thousand annually.

There is a concessional fee for economically weaker students and a scholarship is available too. I do not have much information about these.

The campus life is pretty mellow but gets a new kind of a life when the fests are approaching. There are a lot of extracurriculars in our college. From dance, music, fashion to judo. The NCC and NSS remain quite active all year round. The dramatics and literature societies hold various events and activities too.

There are no hostel facilities in our college, therefore, we do not have a mess. We have a canteen which is not the best. A limited amount of dishes are available along with basic beverages. The charges are affordable and that is a positive point. Other than that there is a good joint at walking distance.

The seniors are helpful and friendly. Our department has a few notable alumni and I have personally talked to one. She was great.

The exam structure is really the same at every Delhi university college. Seventy five marks are for the theory exam that commence at the end of every semester and the remaining twenty five marks are internal assessments, five out of which are for attendance. The rest twenty marks are scattered in projects, presentations, tests etc.

The cutoffs for this college were a bit lower than other colleges. After the release of the second cutoff I gathered all my documents from twelfth standard (originals as well as copies) along with the special custom du form printed out. I carried two passport size photos and reached the college. The student union had setup a help desk outside the college gate abd were keenly helping all the students and parents organize their documents. After which only the students were allowed to go into the campus and register themselves. Once registered they had to get their documents verified in the computer lab and submit them in the administration office. Once the admission slip was provided from the admin office we were sent to the department faculty members in order to register ourselves there and select a general elective. We payed our fees on an online portal the same evening and the admission was finalised.

The faculty of my college is really qualified and hard working. Professors from my department ensure that the syllabus is completed well before time and always welcome the students to join in the extra tutorials they hold weekly in order to compensate.
