Great learning environment, experienced faculty, and value for money education.

Likes

The faculty members are very supportive, highly experienced, and always ready to help students with their queries.
The course fee is extremely affordable and provides great value for money for students in this region.
The campus has a peaceful learning environment with a good gender ratio of around 1:1 for boys and girls.

Dislikes

On-campus placement opportunities are limited, and students mostly need to look for off-campus jobs.
Campus infrastructure needs modernization, including better Wi-Fi access and updated lab equipment.
More practical exposure and industry-oriented training programs should be added to the curriculum.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because it covers all essential topics required for higher studies. The curriculum is detailed and helps build strong subject basics. Teaching methods are traditional, so adding more interactive sessions and skill-based learning would be a great improvement. Exams take place every semester along with internal class tests, which helps in continuous evaluation without extra stress

A Balanced Review of My College Journey

Likes

The college regularly organizes seminars, cultural events, and technical activities, helping students improve their confidence and skills.
The library, computer labs, and classrooms are well-maintained, providing a good environment for learning.
The teachers are experienced and explain concepts clearly. They are approachable and supportive whenever students need guidance.

Dislikes

Some practical sessions need better equipment and more hands-on training to match industry needs.

Placement Experience:

Placements in our College are decent. Students become eligible from the 5th/6th semester, and companies from media, PR, and digital marketing fields visit for recruitment. The placement cell also provides training, internships, and guidance. After graduation, I plan to explore both campus and off-campus opportunities in media and communication fields.

Likes

The fees is affordable in comparison to Delhi University.
The scholarship scheme is definitely helpful for those who are economically weak.
The main campus has a central library so its quite helpful

Dislikes

The books in the central library are quite outdated
The lack of infrastructure in the affiliated colleges of AU
No merit based scholarship scheme available for the students.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I'm from humanities background so the course is quite relevant for me. The course is quite outdated however it's the same for most of the universities. the curriculum should be aligned with the competitive exams and the teaching methods should be more inclusive about the competitive exams so that the student can prepare well not only for the present course but also further upcoming exams.

You can consider it if you aren't looking for any placement.

For taking admission you have to give the entrance exam conducted by Isabella thoburn college itself or you can also give Lucknow University entrance exam However i didn't gave any exam because i got admission through sfs format its self financed and has much more fees than students who got through exam....Read More

THE CAREER COUNSELLING CELL

I was thinking to apply in the Lucknow university. But after seeing the competition there I thought I wouldn't give it a chance. So I only applied to this college because Isabella Thoburn College is one of the best known and popular colleges of Lucknow. I choose this college in the first go as I had complete trust on the education and facilities. The admission process is simple , you can apply online or take the offline admission form from the college after checking the eligibility for taking addmission in bsc biology you must have scored 55% above ,after filling the form you can submit it and then you will be asked to keep on checking the college website for the entrance exam date . Now you have to download your admit card if you applied online, or if you applied offline you were given the admit card with the form .Once you gave the exam , wait for a week or longer until your result.
