    I'm disappointed with the class routine. Go for better options.
    Placements: Placement opportunities are good, basically depending on the course. There are ample opportunities for internships and extracurricular activities, with many ads shared through WhatsApp groups, and interested students can join from there. I don't have much idea about placements, but I have heard that the placement is good in this college.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good, but not very good. Campus is clean, but its design is so confusing, that it takes a while to find class. Sports infrastructure is also very bad, and sports facilities are also not good. They don't have a badminton court or indoor court for indoor games. There's just one cricket ground and tennis court, which is of no use since they don't take many students into teams. They don't inform students about upcoming competitions and tournaments as they don't want to take new students.
    Faculty: Faculty members are good. I would say some are good, and some are not. Apart from good, they all are strict. We shall not miss our school, because the environment in this college is just like school. Some teachers are very rude, and will treat you like a school student by giving homework, and would not give you attendance if we are late to the class.
    Other: Crowd is mostly filled with girls with high attitude. Even though, it’s a girls’ college, it is very difficult to make genuine friends.

    Placements: Commerce students do get good placements from Hansraj College. Our college also makes great options for UPSC government exams and further studies. Many students end up getting admission in IITs and similar good institutions. I will proceed with doing CA or something similar.
    Infrastructure: In the entire north campus, our college has one of the best infrastructure. Facilities of Wi-Fi, labs, classes and library are good but the Physics labs are not much good. Classes do have ACs and the library is very good. Hostel facilities and canteen are present in the college.
    Faculty: The teachers are helpful, qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is overall great. The course is curriculum relevant but it does not make the students industry ready. Semester exams are not too difficult but it is hard to score good marks in them.

    College is good in everything except the infrastructure.
    Placements: 85 percent of the students are placed in my course. The lowest package, according to my course, is 20000 and the highest is 50,000. Not many but some private companies recruit from here. In my course, the majority of students are preparing for government jobs, so they have no choice but to go to other companies .
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure and facilities are not good. The foods are available in the canteen, which is also good. The seating arrangements are also very good but they are very dirty some times, so we need to make clean place where we are come to eat and have lunch, etc.
    Faculty: Teaching is excellent and most classes are running regularly. There is not much doubt in the teachers teachings. The professors are giving us study material so we are studying with our free minds.
    Other: I chose this course because it will be easy to prepare for my future studies and prepare for my goal without any problems. Preparation are running well by this course and by the study material .

    An indeed amazing life journey with miranda delved into exposure and learning.
    Placements: Placements are available. The median package is 4 Lacs and the highest one is 17 Lacs. But graduates mostly go for higher education or government services from here. The college also has a placement cell unit where students are guided for internship opportunities. At the end of the day, there is going to be no spoon-feeding. You have to explore on your own and enjoy your life.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very pretty. Miranda is known for its beauty. The library is excellent with all the books available in pdf and offline forms. The Wi-Fi connectivity is good at many places on campus and poor at a few spots. We also have a computer session where students can use computers to study. The hostel is pretty enough with good meals 4 times a day also you don't have any night curfew! The infrastructure is well maintained and is heart stealing also, the canteen food is better than that of expensive hotels!
    Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and have great teaching experience. We are indulged by them in various activities such as project building. The course curriculum is relevant to the subjects which makes it intriguing to study about the same! The semester exams are not so difficult and can be done easily. Only you have to make sure of your 75 per cent attendance!

    Good college in every aspect.
    Placements: Being a good college in providing academic support, the college lags behind in good placement opportunities. However, the placement cell of the college has shown considerably growth in the recent times. Approximately 80% of the students get internships in various MNCs.
    Infrastructure: The college has two buildings, an old and a new constructed in 2013. The old building has a shabby condition, with small and dirty classrooms, broken windows and fans. The library and auditorium are the best built, library is air conditioned with Wi-Fi access.
    Faculty: I have had the best faculty experience. They are quite helpful, with abundant knowledge on the field. Difficulty level of semester exams is moderate and the result is fair. The one who studies hard gets passed while the others face backlash. The faculty is always supportive in any problem faced by the students. However, students do face problem in maintaining a good attendance record.
    Other: I chose the course because of my interest in learning languages. I could have done better in my course back then but I am satisfied. I have experienced 3 fests in my college and all were amazing.

Buildings are well maintained in terms of painting, plaster, etc. I am not a member of the hostel, so I do not have full information regarding it. But food quality is both hygienic and tasty.
    Faculty: Teachers are very polite towards us and helpful in understanding different concepts. Yes, the curriculum decided by the university is UGC-approved and covers all the relevant topics that are necessary to study. Semester are not much more difficult; it depends upon how much time you have spent studying. Pass percentage varies semester-wise; it is around 60%.

    Q:   Does DU conduct entrance exam for BA (hons) in political science?

    A: 

    DU does not conduct any entrance exam for admission to BA or BA (Hons) courses. However, it accepts the scores obtained by the students in the CUET UG exam for UG admission at any affiliated college. Having said that, students can get admission to Delhi University even if they didn't apply for CUET. While the chances of getting admission will be much lower, here are some of the ways a student can get admission to Delhi University without CUET:

    1. Take a chance on the spot admission: You can try your luck at the spot admission process, which is conducted by Delhi University after the CUET results are announced. However, the number of seats available under the spot admission process is very limited, so your chances of getting admission are slim.
    2. Apply for admission through the Delhi University School of Open Learning (SOL): The Delhi University School of Open Learning (SOL) offers a variety of undergraduate and postgraduate courses that do not require CUET scores. However, the admission process for SOL is more competitive than the regular admission process.
