Q:   Is DU admission open?

  • The CUET UG registration process 2025 for admission to UG courses will commence tentatively during the last week of Feb 2025. The CUET UG 2025 exam dates will be announced soon.

Q:   Can I take admission to DU with 60% in Class 12?

A: 

DU is considered one of the most competitive universities in India for Commerce, Science and Arts education at the undergraduate level. The university and its affiliated colleges was attracting the cream layer of crowd till the time admission was subject to Class 12 scores. While reserved category candidates still had minor chances of getting into a not-so-popular course of DU with 60% in Class 12, a General category student with 60% had no chance of getting into any good college or course at DU. 

However, starting 2022, DU admission process has shifted to CUET-UG based admission process. Those with a valid score in CUET UG exam who have passed their Class 12 are eligible to take admission now. While the chances of getting into a good DU college are still low at this score, the chances of getting a seat have increased now (provided you score extremely well in CUET UG). 

Q:   Is Delhi University good for B.Ed?

A: 
{Source: B.Ed students & alumni}

Based on student reviews and feedback, here's what stands out:

* Teaching Quality: Teachers are considered knowledgeable, helpful, and supportive. They are willing to clarify doubts and help students develop their skills.

In conclusion, Delhi University's Faculty of Law seems to offer a strong B.Ed program, with dedicated teachers, a relevant curriculum, and decent placement prospects. While there may be areas for improvement, overall, the university appears to provide a solid foundation for students pursuing a career in education.

    Department Of Computer Science, DU. One of the best colleges for MCA/M.Sc (Computer Science).
    Placements: There is 100% placement record. The highest package offered is 22 LPA, and the lowest is around 4 LPA. The average package is around 8-10 LPA. Top recruiters are Amazon, Housing. Com etc. Almost 90% companies come for software developer/engineer role & 10% for other roles like analyst.
    Infrastructure: There is a decent library, and highly maintained labs, with the latest systems and connectivity. Hostel is not provided. There's no sports ground available, but good gardens and large empty space is there. There is a common canteen in the university.
    Faculty: Our teachers are well qualified. All our faculty members are either Ph.D. holders, or pursuing their Ph.D. Our curriculum is both industry relevant, as well as research oriented. First year exams are just the same as B.Sc. or BCA exams. Then they go to advance areas like Digital Image Processing. In The fifth semester, you would have choices, to choose from multiple subjects. In the final semester, you would have the choice to either do project in the college, or just complete your internship.
    Other: Best part of DU is the fees, atmosphere, crowd, and placements.

    This is the best college for MCA after NITs.
    Placements: Form every batch every year almost 90% of students got placed in reputed IT companies. The highest package is 48 LPA, the average package is 9 LPA, and the lowest package is 6 LPA. Interviews start in the final year and almost every student cracks interviews and gets an internship. The top companies are Adobe, Amazon, Paytm, Flipkart, Oyo, and many more.
    Infrastructure: At DUCS you will get all kinds of facilities. Fully air-conditioned classrooms, and well-equipped labs for practical work. PC specifications in labs are Dell, i7 processors with 16GB RAM, Wi-Fi speed up to 1 GBPS. Huge seminar halls for meetings and seminars.
    Faculty: All the teachers in DUCS are well qualified, all are Ph.D. holders and have experience of at least 5 years in teaching. Professors are really helpful and polite unless you poke them. Fully relevant course curriculum. Subjects taught will be the core of interviews and competitive exams. Exams are a little bit difficult but if you study honestly it will be easy for you.

    Get admission here if you want job just after MCA. But if you want to go for higher studies, don't
    Placements: The placement is great here. So far, 25 companies have come and still coming this year. If you are looking for a job after MCA, then you must choose MCA in DU. As far as I know, it is the best place to do MCA to get a job. I have enjoyed here because you get the habit of solving problems by yourself due to some good projects and jobs too.
    Infrastructure: I would rate only 2 stars out of 5. There are only 4-5 classes taking a load of both M.Sc in computer science and MCA, so it is not that good but classes and labs are well-maintained, though. If you imagining a very big campus, then you might be wrong. Apart from this, A.C., book, laptops and Wi-Fi are provided for free to the needy.
    Faculty: Teachers are not working very hard for students. If you are good at self-study, then you won't find any problem. You would get some good projects also apart from your academic session. Teachers will help you if you contact them personally but not in the class.

    It is an awesome experience for me to be a part of DUCS, and my dream came true.
    Placements: Placements in our college are amazing, and final year students can apply for placements. Students and teachers are very supportive and encouraging here. The college trained us from the first year only for placements. The salary package offered is also good. Companies which visit here for placements are also good. Workshops are provided at regular intervals.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good. There are air-conditioned rooms and nice canteen. The library is centralised, and proper hygiene is maintained here. The seminar room is well organised, and Wi-Fi facility is also available. LAN connections are available in labs. Labs have an adequate number of computers.
    Faculty: Faculty members in our college are good. They provide holistic development and always available. Most of them are qualified PhD and provide knowledge of concepts and motivates to explore more. Mostly they teach on the projector and provides practical knowledge. There are many female faculty members. Non-teaching staff members are very helpful.
