The college provides a supportive learning environment with a student-to-teacher ratio of about 100:1. The faculty, particularly in Social Sciences and Humanities, are praised for their empathy, while areas like journalism need improvements in resources such as a simulator lab. Notable faculty members include Surya Sankar Sen and Harini Madhusuban. The exam structure consists of two exams per semester, with additional surprise tests and assignments. Campus placements are available across diverse fields such as journalism, English, and sociology, with students also having opportunities for higher studies in IIT and abroad.

Internships offer stipends between 10,000 and 15,000 INR, and students are encouraged to pursue more independently. Scholarships are available for economically disadvantaged students and high achievers. Course fees vary, with many around Rs. 1 lakh plus Rs. 15,000 for additional languages, although local languages are included in the primary fees. The BA in Journalism, International Relations, and Peace Studies costs Rs. 70,000 for the first year, increasing to Rs. 74,000 in the second year.

Fees and Financial Aid:

We have to pay around 30-40K per semester, the additional languages you have chosen (till semester 5) will also add to this as extra fees. Since the course is on Humanities there are no other extra lab charges and such, nor do we have to pay an exam fees. There are scholarships for students from economically backward families available as well, a few of my friends have applied for the same. There are no other compulsory or hidden charges.
