What Students Say

Likes

Faculty: Knowledgeable and supportive professors.
Curriculum: Well-structured, focusing on theoretical and practical aspects.
Extracurricular: Vibrant cultural and clubs and activities

Dislikes

Infrastructure- in terms of campus infrastructure, kalindi lacks a lot of facilities, they don't have maintained campus.
Administration- bureaucratic process of college even for basic functions is slow and yime. Consuming
Library- there are really limited and outdated resources, and one thing is dislike is you can't peacefully sit there and concentrate.

Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

I have always wanted to go for political science and glad that i didn't prioritized college over course, many students make this mistake and end up regretting taking undesirable course just because of college.

Class Size: 150Course Fees: INR 11000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

I'm pursuing Political Science Honours, now in my second year. My annual fees are ?11,000. Luckily, our college provides scholarships based on caste, economic status, and parental income. Science courses have slightly higher fees, but overall, it's around ?11,000 per year.

Campus Life

The campus life isn't much thrilling, campus lacks a lot of facilities, even basic facilities such as clean washrooms, the academic side is good but campus needs a renovation, the sports ground need to be maintained, the hostel construction has been going on from last 3 years almost, still not completed.

Admission

Okay, so i could easily get some top south campus college as i scored pretty well, i made mistake in my preference list, which many students do, i researched about kalindi a bit and it was mentioned that it is "hidden north campus gem" Don't fall for any reviews, they mostly turn out to be unrealistic. But glad that it is still better than most colleges of DU

Faculty

3.5

Kalindi is off campus, but it has good faculty, indeed, academic is much more good than many other off campus or even few south campus colleges. Most of the teachers hold Phd in their field and are excellent at teaching.

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.

Course Curriculum Overview:

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

The teaching faculty is really nice and polite. They usually help students even when u contact them after college hours.
The engagements and the quality of the social interactions in this college is also very good and very uplifting.
The quality of the infrastructure is very good compared to other colleges in du, considering its very new.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because the thought of learning about the literature of the older times was pretty exciting to me while I was choosing the course. The curriculum however does prepares you if you want to continue ur academic journey in the English field.

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.
