All you have to know about Handique Girls' college

Psychology was my last minute decision. I cannot really say I was into this subject from before. But the subject is good , simple and fun. You can learn many things from it about urself n others. Psychology subject is based on practical applications. You learn when u apply them so the entire course is about application and learning from the results. Certain improvements like career guidance with psychology.. knowledge about fields and much more is necessary...tbh necessary for every subject aspect.. so teachers should keep giving counseling once in two months to keep the mental health of students in check and also guide them with their goal. Timing of exams is okay.

Admission Fees is 20000 per year You have to give examination fees during exams which is not much just around 2000 or less. Psychology is self financed so you have to pay the fees no matter which category you're i.e. both general and sc/st has to pay the same amount. You can get college scholarship and national scholarship..but schemes like nijut moina is not applicable to psychology course because it's self financed. But if you take other courses which are not self financed for eg. Economics or Assamese or English.... you can get free admission if you have necessary documents and caste certificate is also applicable. Even if u don't get free admission the course fees is cheap...around 10-12k.

College fest and cultural nights are fun. As a girls' college i must say you get a lot of opportunities and facilities here. Clg week is held in February. Our College has a library block named rajabala library. The same block has psychology dept. The books available are good. You get a lot of books. There are two libraries one in ground floor another in first floor. Quiet and peaceful environment. But what sucks is the wifi. There's wifi connection but no internet. Just a scam. And the college doesn't even catch good network connection so yeah that's a hell of a problem. There's a small basket ball play area.. i wouldn't say field cus it's really small. Sports like badminton, taekando , basketball, kabadii , table tennis...all are available during clg week. Also our clg has many clubs like apeksh, disputatio, literature club, debate , eco , dance , singing and many others. Ofcourse joining them is fun and also gives you attendance haha.

I applied to cotton University and also DU.. I didn get in cotton ...but i got in DU with sociology..since i wanted to go for psychology, I didnt go to DU. I didn't make it to Cotton because of cut off marks. Getting into psychology is really tough especially in this generation where people are more aware about mental health. The cut off was really high 96 % in cotton and Idk about DU it varies from clg to clg. The admission process in Handique girls' college is okayish. Runs smoothly. You just need to have necessary documents and also can ask the staff for any queries or doubts. For Handique the cut off is average. If you score above 90% you'll definitely get admission in psychology. Bu then again the cut off varies every year. This year political science cut off was very high in every college. So even with 80% getting into Pol sc in Handique was not possible.

Faculty and students relationship is very moderate I can say. That's because they are very moody. I do not know about all faculties..but the economics department for me was the most approachable and friendly. But one of my favourite teacher is retiring unfortunately. Psychology is ok ok.. you can ask for help but the help comes or not is upto the teacher's mood. Sad right? Paying and getting treated like that????but don't worry they are better than some other departments like English. English department is like middle school. I think students learn better when faculty is approachable and friendly. They feel comfortable and can come to u in need of help. Before the clg exams weren't so hectic, one sessional and final exam in one semester but with new guidelines.. there's two sessional exam and one final exam per semester. So kind of hectic. And additional subjects like vac, aec , mdc and sec will eat up ur time. Exams aren't tough if you study so how many students can pass depends on efforts and hardwork. They don't set papers of jee level just basic concepts.

No gym, we have a canteen with average food and a small cafe where you get delicious Maggie..very yum and mouth watering. Also there's an internet cafe. Library is available..common room is available. Hostel facilities are available. And ofc one best thing about my clg is the area it's situated in..there are parks like nehru park, digholi pukhuri and so so..also the khao gully..where you can tasty and affordable food. Cotton University is our neighbour. It's safe and good place..but i wouldn't recommend hanging around at late night.
