    A promising college with good infrastructure, highly qualified faculty, but average placements.
    Placements: VIPS offers a variety of courses, including a BA in English Honors. The Department of English Literature has its own placement cell, which helps students connect with specific companies, mostly related to content writing or creative writing job roles. The average package one can expect starts from 4 LPA in this course, which increases depending on your internships, work experience, and skill sets.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of VIPS is very good compared to other colleges of IPU. There are well-built auditoriums, and cleanliness is well maintained throughout the campus, especially in the washrooms. The college canteen offers a variety of food options at affordable prices, and the food is quite decent in taste too. There are lush green lawns where students can play cricket, football, and other outdoor games. Additionally, there are common rooms for girls and boys with indoor games like chess and carrom boards. The computer labs are spacious, and the classrooms are well lit and fully air-conditioned.
    Faculty: The faculty is great; most of them are highly qualified, well-read, and graduates of top universities like DU and JNU. The professors are very dedicated in every single lecture, and there are no random cancellations of classes, which is excellent. The course taught is relevant, but students must engage in more self-reading to hone their skills. The semester exams are conducted smoothly and are mostly of moderate difficulty. One plus point is that the faculty provides electives or value-added courses to unskilled students, such as conducting classes for "Research Paper Writing."
    Other: There are only two colleges in IPU that provide a BA in English Literature, and one of them is VIPS. Now, an MA in English is also available at this college. One drawback is that you have to look for internships on your own. The placement cell is helpful if you have some skill sets and work experience in addition to your regular degree. One great thing about VIPS is that it conducts a number of events (blood donations, health camps), including some big fests like SPANDAN. Additionally, various competitions like photography, writing, dance, etc., are conducted on a regular basis.

    I am very much satisfied with the infrastructure and faculty.
    Placements: Our college offers good placements, and students are free to gain experience with internships (for which professors provide a lot of help and guidance). Many of my seniors got placed in well-known companies, and during the last few semesters, the professors gave us vast knowledge about the work-area.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is well maintained. The washrooms and classrooms are cleaned regularly. The libraries have a good collection of course-related books and computers are for those who need them. There are Wi-Fi routers in many places like floors, canteen etc. We do have a well-maintained garden area, games room and a hygienic canteen as well. There are medical facilities provided, and you can find a sanitary napkin dispenser in the girls' washroom.
    Faculty: The faculty in our college are very supportive. They teach to the best of their abilities, and the exams are enough to test the student's abilities. Nothing is too much pressure in our course if you are dedicated enough. You will be guided through everything, and the professors are always up to help you with anything.
    Other: The English Honours course would definitely help you noticeably improve your writing skills and social skills. We have ethnic day and fests organised once in a while, which keep the entertainment up.

    Good campus with almost no placement.
    Placements: There is almost no placement opportunity. No one in my class gets placed except for those *** whose parents are businessmen. However, because VIPS is a good college affiliated with GURU GOBIND SINGH INDRAPRAS UNIVERSITY, you will have the opportunity to do some off-campus internships.
    Infrastructure: Infra is really good, with air-conditioned classes, clean washrooms, and a canteen. It's quite expensive, but overall, it's fine. There is a small park in between A and B blocks, and the campus is not so big but quite good. Outside campus, it's all. There is a lot of dust as metro construction is going on, but it will be quite better after metro construction.
    Faculty: Teachers are great. If you are a really sincere student, then this is one of the places to study; they always try to involve the class in different activities, such as performing a PowerPoint presentation, etc. So overall, teachers are great. There are friendly people, just like other colleges also.
    Other: As our batch was a lockdown batch, so was our class. Not so much integrated with each other, I can't tell about the festival because I was never interested in it, so I will not be the best person to tell this.

    Our college has good infrastructure but handsome amount of fees.
    Placements: Some of the students got placed. Few got good internships but some of the recruiters didn't pay. Placement cell is average. The salary package is Rs.30,000 was the best.
    Infrastructure: Good infrastructure but elevators take time. Canteen is good with sitting space but very high prices. Classrooms are air-conditioned. Library was good with all types of books. Basketball court is newly built.
    Faculty: Teachers were very good but the dean was not so supportive. Teachers were supportive and very qualified from various parts of the country and world with good knowledge.
    Other: Our college is good for rich people. The crowd is also good and they take 2000 rupees for an id card.

    You will have the best college life and learning with fun.
    Placements: About 25% of the students were placed to show their interest to do a job. The highest salary offered was Rs. 30,000 per month, and the lowest salary offered was Rs. 10,000 per month. Our teachers try to place students with an average salary of around Rs. 15,000 to 20,000 per month. Around 50% to 60% of the students got internships. Top roles offered in our course are content writing, social media marketing, human resource management, etc.
    Infrastructure: Our college has the best suitable infrastructure for students as there are air-conditioners on all floors and in our classrooms. In every department, there is Wi-Fi, and every building has at least 2 libraries. The quality of facilities available in the hostel is very good as there are staff members who take care of the maintenance and hygiene. There are at least 13 societies for us in which we participate, and we get certificates at a national level as well.
    Faculty: All our teachers are well qualified, and they have proper knowledge of the subject. They are very helpful and knowledgeable. Their quality of teaching is very good as they provide us with notes and even make us a scientist. They provide the essence of the novels we study. The course curriculum is relevant, and it obviously helps us in our future for jobs that we pursue. Semester exams are designed at a medium level because there are both academically average and above-average students.
    Other: I chose this course because I have always been interested in the English language. The best thing about my course is that it has its own three societies which discuss about general issues we face in our society. Even societies give an opportunity to every student to showcase their talents in front of the crowd. The crowd of every department is very polite and respectable. There are 13 societies, and about 2-3 fests are organised in our college. I would not have wished for anything more.
