What Students Say

Likes

I like the environment of the university.
The faculty in my college is one of the best throughout DU also.

Dislikes

The colleges are lacking in infrastructure when it comes to sanitation, ventilation and accessibility.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

The curriculum is gets updated regularly. The new pattern of examination has made it harder and less worthwhile as students only mug up to pass rather than to understand the concepts. An improvement in the course can be made by simplifying the reading material offered for each course.

Class Size: 46Course Fees: INR 14000 per year

Internships Opportunities

2.5

There are a lot of internships offered mostly in the technical, marketing and social media fields. Average stipend ranges between 5k to 10k. There have been various companies and NGOs which have offered internships. Some that come to find are Jalsmruti and Upriver.

Fees and Financial Aid

I have yet to experience a fee hike so I will refrain from commenting. My fee is around 14000 annually which includes all charges. There are scholarships and financial aids for people if they fulfill the specific criteria. There are no merit-based scholarships.

Campus Life

Each college has its own annual fest majority of which take place between February and May. Inside the college, each department has its own annual fests. The library is good for academic books but it depends on your luck if you are able to snag a copy and they are limited in number. There is a projector in all classrooms but they don't always work. Sports is good but is only feasible to do if you are a professional player.

Admission

I took CUET as my entrance exam. The form is released by nta yearly. Then I filled out a different form which was specific to DU where further processes were conducted. I paid 150 for the DU form and 1500 for CUET.

Faculty

4.5

Majority of the faculty is extremely qualified with most of them having a PhD or a higher qualification in the fields. They are well versed in their topics and are efficient in passing on the knowledge. At first the professors seem inapproachable but as you get to know and study under them there is a easier level of interaction.

Likes

Affordable fee structure that makes higher education accessible to students from different financial backgrounds.
Flexible learning system, allowing students to manage their studies alongside other responsibilities.
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

Course Curriculum Overview:

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.

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
