Miranda House: My home in Delhi

I am forever grateful to study in Miranda House and I have no negative remarks.

In my opinion, the course curriculum is relevant or research-driven to an extent. In my course, that is History, the curriculum focused more on the social aspect of the past and its consequences, instead of learning dates and political history by heart. This in a way plays a role in making us a better professional, who can analyze the significance of events rather than just state facts.

The placement cell was inactive for a long time in my College, but since the past 3 years, they have been able to attract some big companies. As for internships, the placement cell is also engaged in getting the best of the internship to the students.

The college organizes several events around the year. On a larger scale, the Annual College fest is the most significant event, which attracts students from across the city. Similarly, different departments of the college also organize their department tests and invite great academician around the year.

The Annual fees of my College differ for every course. As for my subject that is History, the fees that I paid during my admission was around Rs. 12,000. In the subsequent year, the annual Fees saw a hike to around Rs. 14,000. In my third year, the Annual fees are around Rs. 12000. (Not the exact amount)

I have not opted for any scholarship or Education loans and hence I will not be able to answer this.

Miranda House is an all girl's college with very vibrant college life. The student body is highly diverse, coming from different corners of the country. The college also has a number of cultural as well as academic Societies. The labs in the college are highly equipped. One of the specialties in the college is the Robotics Lab which is unique to Miranda House.

The college has a great alumni network, many of whom are big names in the media today. The senior students with whom I have engaged are very approachable and ready to help always.

Delhi University releases cut-offs every year for admission into the undergraduate course. I got admission into Miranda House in the third cut off, which was released in the first half of July 2017. The admission was done in person in the college and the whole process can take a whole day.

The faculty at my college is excellent. The professors of my department are so well-read and have in-depth knowledge about the subject, leaving no scope for any doubt. Their helpfulness, as well as approachability, is also very significant. Apart from academics, the faculty ensures that the students do not hesitate to take up any personal issue with them and seek their assistance.
