The women's college you should be.
Placements: The placement is good. Even if I was not a part of the placement cell, I have had friends and seniors who have gotten placements at Yamaha, Deloit and so on. I believe the teachers train and teach all the students to sit confidently in the interview and also crack it. Many times, they also arrange many seminars and events wherein they call people and experts to guide the students and also help them figure out their career path and navigate those.
Infrastructure: I stayed at Indraprastha Hostel for 2 years. I genuinely had a great time with the supportive administration and all the wardens. The room sizes are much better than any other PGs. The food has non-vegetarian options with sufficient healthy different types of meals set every day. The non-AC rooms have coolers, which are periodically repaired. The nearest hospital is Sant Parmanand, which is within walking distance. The washrooms are regularly cleaned and the dogs are really sweet and cooperative. The security is tight and you will genuinely feel safe and at home.
Faculty: The teachers are friendly and really helpful. I am a political science student so we got some amazing opportunities to engage in various discussions and seminars. There is a very healthy environment for various intellectually enriched discussions to engage. I had a great time.

The beauty and wonderness of ipcw.
Placements: I am pursuing B.A. honours in political Science as far as I know there are many internships for 1 year which start from 5 thousand to 6 thousand a month. As you gain experience you get paid according to your CV.
Infrastructure: As we know that ipcw is the only college of Delhi University which has a large infrastructure and greenery. No other college of du has greenery and facilities like ipcw has. It has a medical room which is always open for girls. Mess of hostel is awesome .
Faculty: Teachers of my college are not helpful but they are too friendly. They give us motivation that you guys can do things. They are well qualified and educated. There are many curriculum activities in my college like nukkad natak, quiz gaming and many other sports and games..

Review of Indraprastha College For Women .
Placements: The placement record is not good for our college, as very few numbers of companies reach out, and the average package they provide is not much. Companies like Accenture, Deloitte, etc. reach out. The new education policy included internships last year, but for now we are not getting anything.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good and gives an aesthetic look. The facilities include labs for different courses, a basketball court, lawn tennis, badminton, a gym, boxing, and many more. The canteen is not good; it provides lots of varieties to the students but seems overpriced.
Faculty: The faculty of the department of political science is very helpful, supportive, and easily approachable. The semester exam includes two components: internal assessment and continuous assessment, in which one needs to make assignments, tests, and presentations, which are included in the end result.
Other: As we were the first CUET batch, we didn't choose the college; it was allotted to us via our preference list, which we were supposed to make. The festival of my college is average, as it was only hosted by the professors because the student union didn't exist.

I am satisfied with this college, infrastructure, and facilities.
Placements: In the year 2021–22, approximately 110 offer letters were received. The highest salary package offered is 21 LPA. Many students from our college have cleared the civil service exam and are in good positions.
Infrastructure: Our college provides excellent infrastructure. The quality of food in the canteen and hostel is good. Sports and games are average. Sports facilities are not good. The campus is good, and it has lush greenery.
Faculty: Our teachers are supportive. Their innovative teaching methods are lively in the classrooms. Their patience and understanding when we encounter difficulties help create a nurturing environment. A few teachers are strict. The course curriculum is not different from other colleges at Delhi University. We study Delhi University's syllabus. Semester exams are difficult, but 10 years is enough to clear the exam. The pass percentage is 40%.
Other: I pursued political science honors because of my interest in it. I want to pursue a career in political science. I think the New Education Policy has turned students into machines. They are burdened with assignments, presentations, practicals, class tests, etc., so these benefit students, but they should be implemented in a way that does not load them. You can see a variety of flora and fauna. The annual fest named Shruti is a great event. There are departmental fests too. Scholarships are provided to students from economically backward sections.

Honest review of Indraprastha College for Women
Placements: Placements are very less here; only MMC and BCom students get placement, and the average package is 17 lacs. There is no such placement for arts background students, so if you are from an arts background and thinking about joining this college for placement, it's not worth it.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is superb and rich in quality; the hostel is also good, but it's a bit expensive, like it's 1 lac per semester, and the canteen is also very expensive with tasteless food. However, it is overall good; it has AC, dry cleaners, and other facilities.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful; some faculty members are very knowledgeable, but not all. There are some students and professors you may find helpful. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant, but it doesn't make students industry-ready; it's more bookish than practical.
Other: This course was the highest-demanding course in Delhi University and it provides us exposure. If this college had been affiliated with elections of DUSU, then it would have been better. Events are there 5 in a year, and these are okay.

It is difficult to get admission with that percentage in top colleges like IP College or LSR. However, you can check the cut-off list on the university website. Don't forget to count your best of four subjects percentage as Delhi University admissions are based on that percentage only.
