Gargi : A home to a stranger

I love the course I have opted for in the College. I had so much interest in literature since I was in school, hence made the decision to opt for English Honours in my undergraduate degree. The curriculum of this particular course is easy to get, teaches practical knowledge. We have Internal Assesment and Continuous Assessment before theory exams. In continuous assessment, we are given some topic to make presentation or a group discussion from our sense of knowledge and experience. Speaking up in a crowd and in front of the whole class gives the practical knowledge of being there, present, confidence and speak up your thoughts I would love if we can also watch theatre within the curriculum as we read various plays but watching and analysing them would be great. Mostly the exams are held in December and May, they are moderate level of examination and I have found absolute no difficulty sitting in them and writing. We get 3 hours for the core subjects, and 1 hour for our respective VACs, SECs and AECs.

So I am currently pursuing me 2nd year in Gargi College from general category. In my first year, I paid 18015 rupees for an year and my fee is reduced to 1795 in second year. College does provide various scholarships and financial aid according to your score and your financial situation.

The overall Vibe of campus is vibrant, joyful and the college seems very alive. You will find the college societies having there sessions everywhere and there is a concept of ECA per week where so many extra curricular activities are organised for the students. The societies here are very famous in overall DU circuit lile "Kshitij : The street play society" and "Enliven : the Western dance society". They are inclusive in nature, you have to give audtions in order to get into the society. There are so many non - performing and beautiful societies as well. The library is not that big in the campus, though there are alot of books from almost every existing course in the college. We have computer and Google labs here where you can find a laptop or computer for yourself to study and do other stuff, apart from that, there are projectors in some classes but mostly blackboard.

I applied for Delhi University and Jawaharlal University for an undergraduate degree. I give the CUET examination to get admission in college, I scored 713/800 from general catego6and got Gargi in my first allotment, I was really happy because I was aiming for this college as the faculty of english is so nice here. I didn't went to some other College because it has been a dream to be a part of DU circuit for a long time. The admission process was quite easy, we got forms out and we had to make a preference list according to the Colleges and courses desired for. Once you get your allotment, you have to pay the fee and freeze the college, after that you can goto college on the orientation day with a print of few receipt in your hands.

We usually have 7 teachers per semester for a class. The faculty here is great which not only helps in academical stuff for also to a personal level. They are very approachable, friendly and inspiring. I absolutely love my English Faculty of Gargi College, they are cool, smart and vibey. I have opted Political science as my minor subject and I somewhere don't like some of the faculty members from there because of their teaching style. There are 2 semester in a year one have to sit for the exams twice a year. They exams are at moderate level and usually student pass them with some amount of hardwork.

I got allotment through cuet examination, I sat in the examination and score 713/800 in 3 core subjects and one language. After filling the form and preference list, I got allotment in my first round, I freezed the college by paying fee. I prepared all of it through online free classes on youtube and self study, I practised mock test papers regularly.

Gargi being a girl's college with no Hostel facilities, there is no night life here though there are various spots to hangout such as the Basketball court, tennis court, the ground, inside of the audi foyer, PCs, Arts quard, etc. College usually starts from 8:30 and classes can be conducted till 5:30 according to your course and timetable.
