What Students Say

Likes

Best thing about Delhi University is the diversity of students present in the campus.
Fests of Delhi University are well known throughout the country.
Teachers are highly qualified and friendly.

Dislikes

As it is in Delhi, food prices near University area are high.
Dirty politics in some of the colleges by some specific groups.
Assignments add a lot of burden to your life.

Course Curriculum Overview

BA programme course is divided into six semesters. First, two semesters have 2 Discipline specific core subjects, 1 compulsory language paper and an AECC paper. In the 3rd and 4th semesters, AECC is replaced by SEC. In the 5th and 6th semesters, there are 2 discipline-specific elective subjects, 1 SEC and 1 GE. Faculty are highly qualified.

Class Size: 65Course Fees: INR 17560 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

Almost all colleges at Delhi University are pretty much affordable. For Hindu colleges, you have to pay a fee of 15-25K/ year for different courses. Apart from that, colleges have various scholarships and financial assistance programs for economically weaker sections which can be checked on the college website.

Campus Life

Hindu has an annual fest "Mecca" which is a high-budget fest and is among the largest on campus. The library and classrooms are well-equipped with all the necessary facilities. There is a large sports complex in the college with a huge ground for different sports.

Admission

There was no admission test at that time, though now admissions are done by CUET. Admissions were based on marks of 12th boards. Different colleges within Delhi universities release their cut-off marks for different courses and if you clear the cut off then you are eligible for admission. Apart from that you have to submit your documents for verification and pay the required fee timely.

Kamala Nehru College: Where Opportunity awaits

Likes

I really liked the environment of the college as there was a diverse set of students coming from across the country.
The faculty was top notch and was very dedicated and knowledgeable. If we faced any issue they would come up to help us deal with it.
Also i liked the infrastructure of the college as they recently added a new building and have improved a lot in sports equipments and facilities.

Dislikes

The admin section of the college is very slow and it is a hassle to deal with them. Half a time they are either on a break or on lunch.
There is sometimes non availability of chairs in classrooms like there are approx 40 chairs in each classroom but if the strength of the class is more then we have to borrow it from the next classroom.
Also you will have to take up some additional course which sometimes feel unnecessary but its not only in this particular college but in all the colleges under University of Delhi.

Placement Experience:

The placement opportunities are mainly for commerce stream departments but the humanities stream also are offered internship from the government ministries such as ministry of culture and Home ministry. There are many private companies that come to offer placements. The students from 3rd year in particular apply for internships. The highest package iffered is 500000 and the average is 250000. About 45% students get placements. My plan after getting the degree is to go for higher studies.

Overall best

Likes

My college was a girl's college. There are maximum 60students in a class. Prints were quite cheap in the college cafe.
There were many fest functions in my college. I also participated in the dance fest in my first year. We also used to go on picnics from college.
India's chief guest at the annual function was M Venkaiah Naidu.

Dislikes

College fees were very high for general category people.
The behavior of many teachers was quite rude and arrogant as if they were teaching us for free.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I wanted to do PhD in Political Science but due to percentage I took up BA program. Teachers used to provide notes but mostly I used to be off. There was nothing wrong with the college. Exam timings were good.

KMC in my words

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

An idiot's guide around college

Likes

environment of my college is far better than all the other colleges I have been to, there is zero to none chances of there ever being something unsafe on campus
maintenance of my college is taken very seriously, in only my 1st month of attending college ii saw precautions being taken due to heavy flooding in the college campus
accessibility is one of the things in my college that is so serious and provided with such care that it feels weird when outside campus no such accessibility is not to be seen

Dislikes

there is little to no room for giving students relaxibility in situations of difficulty during talks of giving a leave or not

Course Curriculum Overview:

philosophy as va discipline covers mostlt all the subjects related to humanities, it'll widen your knowledge and you thinking abillity more than that of a oridinary student, the job market is quite difficult for this course

Is Delhi University Worth it ?

Likes

In my college I like my course, my friends and the societies
The crowd of the colleges is also very nice
The campus is peaceful interesting and I love the college

Dislikes

I do not like the infrastructure of the college it needs to be renovated
I also don't like the classes which start from 8:40 thats to early for us
I personally feel that the college portal does not work properly but that's okay

Course Curriculum Overview:

Being brutally honest I don't think that the course contributes a lot to our preparation for the real world but it teaches us very new things which I like. The course might not be very helpful in our real life preparation or the preparation for the real world but at the same time it enhances our knowledge and teachers as about various new things so I am satisfied with my course and whatever the curriculum includes I like it

Reviewing hindu college delhi university

Likes

I like the campus as it is really big with canteens for students who don't bring food with them
Library access is what i love the most about the college as they have very peaceful environment also have a wide range of books.
Sports opportunities in here people who are actually interested in sports are provided with opportunities and skills it also have sports courts and playgrounds.

Dislikes

Timing of library it don't open on Saturday on which we have only 1-2 class with lot of gaps in between during which if a student want to study in library then its not possible.
Societies in colleges sometimes charges a lot of money in names of events and Society fund lack.
Groupism in classes due to family background and looks.

Course Curriculum Overview:

In term of relevance I'll say that there are many topics which should not be taught as they are way too old and contradicting in modern times. New tumes problems and solutions should be taught in replace focusing on present.

Teachers are knowledgeable and supportive. Most faculty members explain concepts clearly, encourage class participation and are approachable.
Syllabus is well-structured and is relevant to the industry reuqirements. It balances theoritical knowledge with practical exposure.

Dislikes

Size of the campus is relatively smaller to the main campus.

Placement Experience:

Final year students are generally placed with an average package of 7-8 lakhs for management programs. Companies including the big 4 like EY, KPMG, Deloitte and other reputed companies have visited and many offers have been made. Around 60% of the students get placed in management branch. After getting the degree, I am also planning to appear in the placement opportunities.

As a future law student philosophy was one of the options which was good to opt. Secondly, comparatively less people opt it and it can be one of the better choices if you are preparing for upsc and taking it as an optional. Teaching can be made more interactive as the topics are really interesting

Beginning of a new life- Hindu College

I choose this college as it got the NIRF rank 1 in 2024. The college is very diverse in terms of courses and students. The college has a campus area of around 25 acre. I have applied for the other colleges of north campus too but Hindu College was my first priority. I got it in the first round of common seat allocation system so I didn't need to bother to choose other colleges. I have to give cuet exam so that I can take admission in Delhi University. The eligibility for my course was to study mathematics till 12th class and the student who has given maths exam in cuet and 2 other subject and 1 language exam. Then the cutoff for this course comes in various colleges. College and course are allotted on the CSAS portal of Delhi University.

"My Experience at Hindu College : A full review of Academic , Social , Campus life and beyond"

The reason why I chose my current college that's Hindu College is because firstly the hype around it for being No.1 which I feel it certainly lived upto and furthermore it has the best infra in entire DU , the curriculum the faculty , the fests , the interns and placements in each and every aspects it's the best which kind of makes it a go to mark furthermore , I decided for my course at the very beginning and thus only 2 colleges offered this for the boys that's HINDU college and VENKATESHWARA College , Venky is good but far away from my home consumes a lot of time and moreover Hindu is the best and something I've envied a lot furthermore there was no parameter which barred me from getting into other colleges as I had a very good score in CUET , furthermore the Admission process for all the DU college and my college is based on a exam named CUET , thus this exam decides ur fate , the exam is of 800 marks for BA hons and 550 not really sure for BsC , there are cutoffs for each college and for my college the cutoff was 765 for BA socio which u have to meet in order to get into the college after that ur documents are strictly verified by the college , also in case u submitted a reservation ccertificate and after that finally when it's approved by the principal u get to pay the fees and thus in this fashion u confirm ur seat in the college . so this is the entire admission process ......Read More
