Remarks

The course curriculum is broad. We studied history of english. We covered from indian literature to british literature of 19th century. Though too many books to study but all of them are really instresting and mind gobbling.Faculty of science,economics and english are really good. Teachers are very supportive and knowledgable always ready to help. You can call them and ask questions, engage in debates in class, put your view points and they will always help you.

Placement Experience

2.5

Placements are not so good in my college. Though i never sat for the placement but as compared to the other colleges of University of Delhi, a bit low level companies visit my college and yes there are opportunities of internship.

College Events

There are many events celebrated in our college like our annual day, flower day, and there are many lectures held on various topics. Our college holds lots of debating events and dance events. The fest of our college named Sabrang is celebrated in feb- march where a famous artist comes and perform. Last year shaan came to our college which was wonderful.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee structure is very feasible. Its affordable and also student who tops his/her exams are given scholarships also. My course fee was 8000/- Rupees per annum which is like really cheap and affordable.

Fees and Financial Aid

Exam toppers are given a certain amount of price to aid in their studies. Rest i dont about any other loan facililty which is offered by my college and i have never availed any loan/scholarship from my college.

Campus Life

Our college is famous for archery. Only few colleges have archery as a sport and my college is one of them. Other than that there is football,cricket, volleyball and other sports also. There is a drama society, music socity, dance society and also the labs are well maintained.

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni network is not so strong. You can stay in touch with your seniors if you have their number otherwise no such reunions are held in the campus. Though teacher student relationship is very good in the college.

Admission

I registered myself on website of University of Delhi. They released their cutoff and when I cleared the cut off I went to the college for admission. There they verified my documents and my marks to match with my online uploaded documents and i got the admission.

Faculty

Faculty of science,economics and english are really good. Teachers are very supportive and knowledgable always ready to help. You can call them and ask questions, engage in debates in class, put your view points and they will always help you.

Limited opportunities for regular classroom interaction and face to face engagement with teachers and fellow students.
Students pursuing distance learning may need to rely more on self-study and independent preparation

The BA English Honours curriculum at DU SOL is relevant and provides a strong foundation in literature and language. The course covers diverse topics that support academic learning and critical thinking. The flexible structure is suitable for distance-learning students.

Likes

I liked the environment and the crowd of the college, and also my professors. Like seriously they are so helpful and kind
Also what I like about this college is that it's liberal unlike other colleges of North campus
I love the ashoka lawn and the big ground in front of the gym

Dislikes

I hate the staff, especially the technical staff ( Ankita Jain ), I went to her with erp portal issue and she just didn't look after my issue properly and sent me away. It was totally unexpected. She must be removed from her position.
The canteen staff, I didn't like their behaviour
Some of the seniors are shit and not helpful

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate it 9 out of 10. The reason is simple, whatever my professors teach and everything that is there in my syllabus is really helpful for my future. Not just that, they way lectures are delivered by the professors is just awesome
