Remarks

Except for the college infrastructure that is under construction at the moment, the college is amazing. The new building is relatively nicer and the staff is good. The teachers and the non teaching staff are always there to help the students.

Course Curriculum Overview

5

The course curriculum is common for all DU colleges therefore I can't blame my college solely for it. It is in term with the education needed to be parted but the distribution of papers can be more diverse. My course contains several papers on British Literature and only a few on American and Indian and almost none on other. The curriculum is one thing that I think can be bettered.

Internships Opportunities

It does circulate various internship programs and opportunities through the class groups and the colleges.The placement cell is a huge part of this. It often helps students to find proper internships. Although I haven't taken up one through the college.

Placement Experience

2.5

The college has a placement cell that contains of the students of the college itself as members, post holders and voulenteers. It also holds up a program annually when several companies bring placement and job opportunities for students to take help Of.

College Events

5

There is an annual fest held around February and it is basically called the fest season of DU. All the colleges host their annual festivals and invite students from other colleges. My college fest is called Aaghaz and during it, the different societies organise their own functions and events. There is one major star night where someone reputed is invited by the college.

Fee Structure And Facilities

It is really feasible. Being a government college, it allows even a student who does not belong to a financially strong family to study and not bear and feel the burden of education fees. It is comparatively very less than private colleges.

Fees and Financial Aid

I haven't availed any but I have seen my north eastern friends applying for scholarships. The college does help with with financial aids and loans for minorities and it proves to be a plus point of the college.

Campus Life

3

There is a huge playground by the canteen where the students from other colleges are also seen in competitions with ours. The basket ball and the cricket ground is never empty and the students have always been upfront and participating in various intercollege completions in DU.

Hostel Facilities

4

The college area in Nehru Nagar is surrounded by good pgs. There are various in defence Colony and By the metro station in Moolchand. The lajpat Nagar metro station, moolchand metro station and Vinobapuri metro station provide excellent metro facilities to the college students. They are at walking distance from the college.

Alumni/Alumna

Yes they are very helpful. The students are approachable and the teachers are really experienced and helpful. The senior students also help with the society and the social and cultural activities. It helps the students bond and lead the 3 years in college happily.

Exam Structure

For every semester, first the students take an internal of 25 marks that contains 10 marks for assignment, 10 for project and 5 for attendance. The other 75 is of theory paper and you are allowed to take the exam only if you qualify the attendance criteria. The marks of one semester is then added to the total and the cgpa is calculated.

Admission

I waited for my 12th ISC results and then according to my marks, could clear the criteria for this college. Then I went to the college on the date scheduled for admission with all the documents needed and got myself admitted. The staff and the voulnteer students were extremely nice and approachable. It was,honestly ,a good experience.

Faculty

4.5

The faculty of my college is amazing. It is also a matter of luck in Delhi University. It's not necessary for the 'good' colleges to have excellent teachers and the south and off campus colleges to have necessarily bad ones. The teachers vary in all the colleges and I'm lucky because the teachers in PGDAV morning college are really amazing.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have a keen interest in theoretical subjects. Even in my school time, I liked theory subjects more than practical or numerical subjects. This is one of the reason I chose this specific course. Another reason is that I like reading non fictional novels. At the age of 15, I started reading novels but after diving into this course I'm liking the fictional novels too. I don't think this course needs to improve anything. It is in it's best form at the point.

Placement Experience:

I think students become eligible for campus placements in 5th semester as now they are mature enough to be given such responsibility and to secure their future. I am not aware about the number of companies and offers. I am also not aware about the highest or lowest package offered but the average package for my college is ?6.5 lakhs per annum. The cgpa should be above 7.5 for better chances of getting placements. My plan is to get a good college placement in starting of the 5th semester.
