Remarks
This college is truly holistic Without a doubt in my mind since class 10 itself , Hindu college lived up to it's name when I entered the college. Though the admission process which starts May June each year was not quite a pleasant experience, I knew somewhere that a life of good learning awaited me like a treasure in a heavily guarded cave. My 3 years were great and I am quite a changed man now from a shy, secretive kid in the beginning of the first year Pros:- + Excellent Exposure due to Delhi's strategic location + Very Friendly seniors ( Trust me, the best most caring out there. + Great Faculty + Vibrant Societies + Great Alumina network ( 120 year old college, what did you expect? ) + Like minded students for your choice ( literally Every combination exists) Cons :- - Administration is slow and ineffective - Placements are Average , though companies recruiting are good. - College Politics
Course Curriculum Overview
I wanted to pursue Political Science and the best place for that in India is Hindu College without a doubt. It has been Ranked 2 according to the NIRF rankings. The faculty student ration has increased over the years at 1:20 . But the quality of teaching hasn't degraded a bit. The faculty have top notch qualifications from esteemed universities like JNU, DU, Birmingham , Oxford etc. The exam level was generally between moderate to difficult but was very easy to pass. Except this year, every year the exams were held on time.
Placement Experience
Even though many from my department generally don't prefer placements and go for UPSC and Masters. However there was one girl from my class who got placed in Oberoi. From the 3rd Year itself one can opt for placements. Disha is our Placement Cell and it's placement record is quite decent to say at least. Mostly for placements we have students from Commerce and Economics Marquee Companies like EY, DE Shaw, KPMG and Google recruit from our college. Highest Salary - 31 LPA ( an Economics student bagged the same) Average - 7.5 LPA
Fees and Financial Aid
The fee is quite reasonable and was around 13000 Rs which has only recently increased to 15000 . The college offers a lot many scholarships to Category Students and there are new scholarship opportunity coming up every once in a while. In short Super Affordable.
Campus Life
Our Annual Festival is Mecca and everybody waits for this event because of its magnanimous nature. All top singers like the Local Train, Papon , Vishal Sekhar have come here and have given epic performances. The College library has been expanded and a new library has been constructed. Literally every major book on Politics and IR and other subject can be found there even those that are no longer in circulation. In terms of extracurricular activities this college is full of it as every society under the sun exists. We have Ibiza which is the biggest society out there and was founded by Imtiaz Ali back in the 90s.
