Dislikes
- The classes aren't Air conditioned which I feel makes it unpleasant to attend classes during summers. Though AC is installed in library, reading room and labs
- Drainage system is very poor with water flooding the roads after rains.
- The college hostel is small with capacity of 75 only. The same needs to be expanded to 100 imo.

The sports department is well equipped. There are annual sports events in our college.
Admission
I applied for SRCC, Hindu, Hansraj , Kirorimal college and Ramjas college. I cleared the cutoff for Ramjas college but prefered SVC due to its political involvement. SVC is quite apolitical with minimum intervention by the rallies which makes the college environment better than many colleges. I couldn't clear cutoffs for SRCC, Hindu Hansraj and Kirorimal college by 6 marks. The college takes admission based on CUET score of the students
Faculty
In a class there are approx 80 students. The faculty student relationship is good. Students can talk their hearts out in class or in person, CRs are appointed for effective communication between the professors and the students. I personally liked Shruti mathur mam the most because of her friendly nature. There are semester exams twice a year however continuous assessment are taken by professors every semester. The assessments are easy to pass but difficult to ace with straight As.
Interview Experience
In Delhi University there is no such provision for group discussion or interview or any other written test except for Cuet. No there were no group discussion , interview or written test for admission. Admission is Solely based on cuet scores and for type breaker boards examination score.
Night Life
While Sri Venkateswara College itself isn't known for a buzzing nightlife inside the campus, the surroundings of South Campus, especially areas like Satya Niketan, bring the college neighborhood to life after classes. Campus Timings and Facilities: Library: Generally closes by 5 PM - 6 PM on working days. No late-night study areas inside the college. Cafeteria & Public Areas: The college canteen and sitting areas close by 5 PM when the college shuts down for the day. Hostel Timings: For those in hostels (limited in DU colleges), the entry/exit is strictly regulated. For girls’ hostels, the curfew is usually around 8 PM - 9 PM. For boys' hostels, it's slightly relaxed but still follows campus discipline.
