Commonly asked questions
Q:   How hard is it to get admission in Delhi University for an average student?
A: 

The admission process for Delhi University (DU) is extremely competitive, especially for the well known and popular courses and colleges. However, the difficulty level of admission varies depending on the programme a student wishes to get into. Some of the key parameters that define how difficult can be for a student to get into a good DU college with good course:

  • Scores in CUET/ Class 12
  • Category
  • Selection of College + Course combination in the CSAS registration process

Up until 2021, only top scorers of Class 12 were able to get into Hindu, Hansraj, Miranada, SRCC, LSR and other reputed colleges for top courses such as BA (Hons) in Economics/ English/ Political Science, BSc (Hons) Physics/ Chemistry/ Mathematics and BCom (Hons) courses. However, the introduction of CUET has changed the game. Now, even if a student could not do well in Class 12 has a chance of getting into the cream colleges with a good score in CUET.

However, if the dream is just to study in a reputed DU college, there is a basic hack that can be followed by anyone and everyone. All the top colleges of DU offer short-duration certificate courses in Languages and other interest areas. Those who are not able to get into DU can witness the buzz of being a DU student by pursuing these courses. For details on the same, students are advised to visit the official website of the DU affiliated colleges.

Overall average college. Just near my residence, so I went for this only.
Placements: I'm just a fresher so I don't know much about placements of the college. As far as I reached, the seniors said it's sometimes given. Don't know anything about packages, as any package is given. I didn't enroll in the placement society, so I'm not in that part.
Infrastructure: So, talking about facilities and infrastructure, the staff are a bit rude, as they do not guide us properly. The infrastructure is average. The greenery is good, and the campus is very big. The canteen is also affordable but a bit unhygienic. They don't provide sports and games opportunities.
Faculty: Teachers are not that helpful. They sometimes get sold, but we students also sometimes feel that they are being taken for granted by us. Not given exams yet, so can't say anything. Attendance percentage is compulsory. There is a separate one for internal assessment and a separate one for university exams.
Other: I chose this course because I was from a commerce background. This college does not conduct any events like Dandiya night or anything.

Kirori Mal College, University of Delhi review.
Placements: Have heard that the placement cell provides good placements and internships but I have not experienced this as a first-year student. Some seniors say that there are good placements, but some do not agree. That is why I am rating it as average.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is not good these days as construction is going on in the college. Some rooms have good infrastructure, like AC rooms that work properly, but there are still some rooms where the infrastructure is not nice.
Faculty: I personally really like the faculty members. They are very educated, and the way of teaching is really nice and understandable. That is why the faculty and the curriculum are really nice. Exams have not been conducted yet, but they are scheduled since November for the 1st semester. Classes are being conducted on a regular basis, which is really helpful.
Other: There are many societies which are really active, which is a good part. About the fests, there is no space as the auditorium is under construction. So, as a first-year student, I don’t know where the fests will happen or if they will happen at all.

Faculty: The teachers are really passionate about their subjects (especially for Food Technology). They’re very helpful and have a good grasp of their subjects. The exams aren’t too difficult, you just need to be a regular student to get marks in CA. My subject isn’t really great for higher education opportunities or jobs, but it’s really good if you’re planning on entrepreneurship in the long run.
