Q:   Is BA at Maitreyi College better than Zakir Husain Delhi College?

A: 

Hello Nishar Ahmed, with both of these institutions having great name for themselves in academics and also having achieved a gradation of "A+" by NAAC, is quite tough to compare these two colleges for studying any subject in Bachelor of arts. Zakir Husain college offers almost 26 different streams or varieties of graduations in Bachelor of arts whereas Maitreyi college offers only 8 varieties in Bachelor of arts. So this may decide a student's choice as to which college to select based on the specialisation one wants to do in this stream of arts. Another criteria is the placements. In this area perhaps Maitri out scores Zakir Hussain. They have declared on their webpage that almost 60% of more than 200 students placed last year were from the stream of arts. 

       Be that as it may both colleges appear to have a very nice set of teachers and academic programs as well as varieties of co curricular activities for students for the overall development. This makes both the college almost appear at the same footing while selecting. Of course if one is a male student then there is no choice but to go for Zakir Hussain college since Maitreyi is only for girls. But overall I would say Zakir Hussain is better than Maitreyi for BA. 

Best wishes to you.

It's just about Rs 11500.00. Of course if student desires to live in hostel then additional charges have to be paid. 

Best wishes to you.

Really Good Infrastructure and Facilities.
Placements: According to the last few years' data, most of the students were placed in various multinational companies such as Air India, Zomato, and Horizons. The placement cell of Maitreyi College provides great internship opportunities for students, and most of the students get paid internships.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is one of the best compared to other colleges, well-furnished along with various smart classrooms. The quality of food available in the college canteen is the best, and most of the books, whether old or the latest, are available in our college library.
Faculty: The teachers of our department are very helpful and are always there to help the students. They provide us with the best material to study and make the class more interactive so that the students can learn confidence building. The teachers conduct regular assessments for students.

Best girls college in Delhi University.
Placements: In my college, I think not a lot of students got many placements, but 5% of students got placements every year, and the highest goal of 8 Lacs, and the minimum offer of 3 Lacs now. The companies, for example, right now are Microsoft, etc. And the percentage is also very good.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my college is really very good. The labs, the Wi-Fi, the library, the ground, and all the other services are very good. The infrastructure is overall very good, and the cleanliness of my college is absolutely admirable. With that, the canteen food is an issue because we don't like the canteen food a lot because of its quality. Except for that, all the services are very good, whether it comes to sports, medicine, or games. There are also many opportunities provided to the students.
Faculty: In my college, the teachers are very helpful and very knowledgeable. The teaching techniques, and the teaching quality, are so good. They are very approachable, very helpful, and very supportive to each and every student in my course. For English Honours, the study is a very famous course at Delhi University. The semester exam depends on how much you have got in your CA and how much you have written in your theoretical exam.
Other: I chose English Honours, and I chose this course because of my own interest. The best thing about this course is its diversity. The one thing I would like to improve is the number of books; it can be less. Except for that, the extracurricular activities and the crowd are so amazing and so friendly.

Maitreyi College is really nice.
Placements: 70% students were placed. The average CTC offered at the placement fair was 4.5 LPA with the highest package 5.6 LPA by Bajaj Capital. Companies like Deloitte and Lenskart also recruit students from our college. We get offered 100+ internships, and in every year for every course, they are both paid and unpaid.
Infrastructure: The library is very well furnished and provides so many books. We have an e-library too with more than 30 laptops for students with internet facilities for accessibility for everyone. There are both worn-out and new kinds of classrooms, so that depends on which course the student is in. The old canteen was very good, but the new one is not so, depending on the tenure.
Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable, also they are very much approachable in terms of curriculum-based doubts and if we want to talk about anything else. The course curriculum is average and not very practical, and not boring too. You must have interest in the subject. The semester exams are easy if you study properly.
Other: The events and fests conducted by the college are very good, also the campus and the garden are really beautiful.

Review of Maitreyi College, University of Delhi.
Placements: There are no placements for students. Students can find many internships in creative or content writing, in NGOs. There are summer internship projects as well that are carried out under the mentorship of the faculty members.
Infrastructure: Our college is known for its gardens, and it is the most beautiful thing here. The infrastructure of the new science block is good, but the arts block needs improvement. Washrooms in arts block are not good, and the classrooms are small. The canteen is also not good. The menu usually contains 6-7 items only. It also provides a good library.
Faculty: Faculty members are average in this college. Few teachers are helpful in this college. They counsel students about future job prospects in this field. The teaching quality is satisfactory. Semester exams are not tough but you won't score as high in comparison with other subjects.
Other: If you want to explore then this course is good. You get to analyse text from every period i.e., British, Indian, American, Greek, or Russian. Maitreyi organises various talk sessions with well-recognised writers and journalists in the field. Societies are very active here and you can easily find a group with the same interests here. Maitreyi College comes under South Campus and the nearest college is JMC, and other colleges like SVC and ARSD are also around 1.5-2 km away. Our college is in the embassy area, and it provides a safe environment. The nearest metro station is Durgabai Deshmukh South Campus.

Hi, Score of 85% does get admission but it depends upon the course you are opting for. Hons. courses are usually more hyped and English is one of the mostly opted one. For general category, it becomes difficult to get admission in the campus colleges. 92-93 can still settle for south campus for Eng
