What Students Say

Likes

Basketball court , table tennis and Shor ground
The college has the biggest canteen of the delhi university.
The faculty here is the best and the library has all the required supplements.

Dislikes

The construction work which is running in the college.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I chose BA English Hons because of the many opportunities ahead with the subject. The faculty here in the college is amazing as they are selected by the DU administration. We have semester exams in every 6 months and if studied well it's easy to pass.

Class Size: 80Course Fees: INR 13000 per year

Internships Opportunities

4.5

You'll get internship opportunities if you join the internship cell of the college but as I am not part of the cell I will not be able to talk about it properly. You'll get the internship opportunity based on your courses.

Placement Experience

4.5

The college has its placement cell and if you join the cell you get many placement opportunities with a decent package according to your course. My plans after getting the degree are to go for LLB from the Delhi university itself.

Fees and Financial Aid

The cost to study here is very affordable as it's a government college. There are many government-based scholarships available if searched online or asked in the principles office. Jobs depend on the course you have selected as colleges provide different BA and BCom courses.

Campus Life

The college provides an amazing infrastructure with two sports grounds one for football and cricket and the other for all the fests college organizes. A basketball and volleyball court is also available. Gym and table tennis is also provided for the students. All the clubs and groups in the college are run by students for eg. Navrang and Spunk.

Admission

The admission process was smooth as butter. The application form was easily available on DU's website. Admission was based on the class 12th percentage. Since the college falls under South Campus the cut-off was decent.

Opportunity to pursue a degree from delhi university through open and distance learning.

Dislikes

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
More regular communication, student support, and interactive academic activities would improve the overall learning experience

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. Adding more practical activities, updated study materials, and interactive learning opportunities could further improve the overall course experience.

Remarks:

Positive : the faculties are good and I could say our college is the meeting place of various cultures ranging from Kerala to jammukashmir Negative: the infrastructure is poor. Labs and libraries are not so good. And there are stray dogs who often steps into classes and make us afraid. College is not fully air conditioned but is on processing.

I was given this college on the basis of the score in the CUET Exam which i gave after my 12th. It was a tough exam i would say because compiting with 20 Lac plus students for just a seat in DU is not an easy task. While preparing the prefference sheet and combinations for the college in the admission process was a confusing task. So i select all the cobinations of courses and colleges which i was eligible and then i also select my course and college, but i never thought that i would get it, still though i was happy that i get to study in one of the DU college. I applied to a lot of DU colleges and there courses. I would say it was'nt an easy one, bt still get to study here is a great opportunity....Read More
