Remarks :
St. Stephen's College has an aura and legacy of polishing the students by providing them with the best exposure through involvement in numerous activities. Without an iota of doubt, the college has the finest teachers for various departments. I chose the BA Programme course because it is not specialised and on a graduation level one can study different subjects. The strength of the class is around 60; easier to have direct interaction with the teachers. St. Stephen's College is not just about academic learning, moreover, the college offers enrollment in different societies like the Hindi Sahitya Sabha, Shakespeare Society for literature fanatics, Sabha for theatre lovers etc. The college has around forty societies with no bar for the students. The admission procedure usually starts a few weeks later than the DU registration. Students have to fill DU admission form first followed by the St.Stephen's College form on its portal. Interview dates are published on the official site.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course is divided into 6 semesters, out of which two discipline subject are compulsory in all the semester exams. Teachers are well qualified and most of them are from prominent universities like Delhi University, Jawaharlal Nehru University and some have accomplished their research from abroad. The tutorials are taken every week to clear the doubts of the students and help them to prepare for their semester and internal exams.
Internships Opportunities :
Internship opportunities are numerous as some of the students can work on the grounds for the NGOs while the others who want to make profits can work for economic organisations. Most of the students choose to work as a financial consultant and they get good perks and stipend. The Campus Placement Cell makes sure that every student gets in a pot Unity to make the best use of internship opportunities.
Placement Experience :
Around 70% of the students get good campus placements, especially in the private sector. The average package for the students is 6,000,00 per annum. The highest package offered to the student varies between 25 lakhs to 35 lakhs. My plans are different as I want to pursue my higher education.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The college provides various scholarships for the students like MUFG Bank Scholarship, Sumoto Bank Scholarship etc. The scholarships are provided to the students who need financial aid and to some meritorious students. Usually every month there is an internship opportunity for the students from various sectors such as banking, financial consultants, research work etc. The total cost of the entire course is around Rs 1 lakh (hostel not included) and the college offers hostel accommodation separately if needed.
Campus Life :
The best part of college is that it helps you to grow your personality and one can either sit peacefully on the lawns or go to the library to study. The college has a peaceful environment where we not only enjoy ourselves with our friends but feel calm and composed. For people who are interested in sports, there are games like table tennis, football, frisbee, shooting and an enormous sports complex.
Hostel Facilities :
I lived in the hostel for some time and all the basic amenities are available there but one has to make sure that they reach the hostel especially women by 10 pm. The meal quality is average but you get a variety of food to eat.
Interview Experience :
There is an aptitude test in the form of multiple-choice questions which includes the basic questions important for the preferred course. The interview panel is quite cooperative and they usually question from what we studied earlier for our board exams. Be thorough with the subject where you scored the maximum marks in your board exam. They can ask you about the area where you reside and their most favoured question is why do you want to join St. Stephen's College.
