Should you pick MA Persian at Jamia Millia Islamia?

This course suits students who want Persian language work and can live in Delhi for two years.

Pick it if:

You passed graduation in this state: half the seats are Open, so a score that misses the All India list can still get in.

You want language roles, not only general office jobs: the department links students to translation, teaching and research work in Delhi.

Your family can pay only per semester: you pay the course fee each year, and the dean can allow two parts on request.

You want the fee back fast: the low fee is much lower than one year of average pay, as the ROI tile shows.

Skip it if:

You are counting on last year's closing score: it has got tougher three years in a row, so last year's number is not a safe score.

You need a single room from the first year: first-years share three to a room and single rooms open only from year 3.

You want internships in a big city: most work is language or research based, so private office internships are fewer.

You will decide only after the admission result: the program window closes soon after it, so fill your programs early.

Counsellor's advice

Take this course if your goal is Persian study or research. If you want quick private hiring, keep a safer course above it.

In short

Delhi costs less and pays more on average, but its closing score is about 3,000 places tougher. If your score clears both, take Delhi; if it clears only JMI, take this seat and do not wait for the spot round.

In short

New Delhi places more of its batch but charges INR 75,000 more over two years and pays a little less. If its easier closing score is what you need, keep it one place below JMI in your program list as the safer seat.

In short

Harbour charges the same fee but pays about INR 1 LPA less on average and has half the seats. If JMI gives you a seat in any round, take it; Harbour belongs below it in your list, not above it.

In short

Hyderabad costs a little more and pays about the same, but it has more seats and an easier closing score. If your score misses JMI in the early lists, list Hyderabad right below it and take whichever comes first.

In short

Summit is the cheapest seat here and the easiest to get, but its average pay sits below this page's. If JMI selects you a seat in any round, take it and keep Summit only as your backup.

Fees and pay can change. Check each college site before you decide.

FAQs on Jamia Millia Islamia MA Persian

Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.

Is MA MA Persian at this college worth the fee?▾

Yes, for most students who get placed. The full fee without hostel is INR 19,550 and the last batch averaged INR 16.8 LPA, so the fee comes back within the first working year. If a loan will pay the fee, read the EMI line in the fee block above before you decide.

Should I take this seat if my score is just above the closing score?▾

Not on last year's number alone. The General Open seat closed at score 30 in selected list and it got tougher three years in a row, so a score that just cleared last year may miss this year. Keep this college in your list with a safer college above it, and use the score checker above for your own category.

What job will I get after this course?▾

Most students get language and research jobs with language, translation and research roles that hire on campus in the seventh semester. The Class of 2025 averaged INR 16.8 LPA, the median was INR 16.8 LPA and 92% of the batch was placed. If you want a core electronics job instead, this course is not the right pick.

Who should not take this course here?▾

Skip it if you need a single room from the first year, or if you want internships in a big city. First-years share three to a room and single rooms open only from year 3. The campus is in Delhi, so the placement cell brings most internships and few come on their own. If either of these matters more than the placement figures, pick a city college.

Is this course good for higher studies and research?▾

Yes, if you plan for it from year 2. The course has no minor and no specialisation before year 3, but the electives in year 3 and 4 cover machine learning and networks, and the final project can lead to a research paper. Talk to the department in year 2 about a project with a faculty member, because that is what a good master's application needs.

Should I wait a year and try for a better score?▾

Only if you can raise your score by a lot, not a little. The General closing score got tougher three years in a row, so a small gain may still miss the seat next year. If you already clear this year's cutoff, take the seat now and try a course change after year 1 if you want a sibling course.

Will I get placed if I am in the bottom half of the batch?▾

Most likely yes, but later and at a lower package. 92% of the last batch was placed, and the median of INR 16.8 LPA is lower than the average of INR 16.8 LPA because the last students take the smaller offers. Keep your CGPA above the cutoff the companies set, usually 7, and join the placement training the cell holds in year 3.

Is this course better than ECE at this college for me?▾

Pick MA Persian if you want a language or research job and ECE if you want a core electronics job. MA Persian places a bigger share of its batch with language roles, and its closing score is the tougher of the two. If you get ECE now and want MA Persian, the course change after year 1 needs a top CGPA, so do not count on it.

How do I get admission to this course?▾

Take the JMI entrance test exam and fill this college in your JMI Admission Cell program list. A seat comes in the round your score clears, and you must accept it and pay the seat fee within the days JMI Admission Cell gives. Then report with your papers on the date in the admission dates block above, or you lose the seat.

What is the full fee for the course?▾

The full 2-year fee is INR 19,550 without hostel. With hostel and mess it comes to INR 99,550. Both totals sit in the fee block above, and the toggle there shows what the hostel adds each year.

Can I pay the fee in parts?▾

Yes. You pay the tuition fee semester by semester, so the money is never due all at once. If you need smaller parts than that, write to the fee office before the semester starts; the request opens every August.

Do I get the fee back if I drop the seat?▾

It depends on when you leave. If you leave before the counselling body's exit date, most of the fee comes back. If you leave after it, the college keeps a part, so read the refund table in the fee block before you pay.
