Remarks :

For my Masters in Psychology, I applied in Banaras Hindu University, Varanasi and got selected for my first attempt. It is a central university providing a vast number of courses and one of the best being MA/MSc in Psychology with great faculty. I belong to the general category and wasn't eligible for any quota. The cut off for the main campus of Banaras Hindu University is usually high with students obtaining marks as high as 394/400. Minimum marks could be 160/400 for the reserved category. As of age limit is considered, students under 40 years of age can apply. We only have to clear the written exam for the entrance test, the next step is counselling and getting your documents verified. If anyone misses, counselling day, their chance of selection is nill.

Course Curriculum Overview :

I did my Bachelor's degree in Psychology (H). As someone residing in Varanasi, BHU seems to be the best option as it is Internationally renowned University. So, I chose this course because it is one of the best suitable for me. The faculty to students ration is 1:8 and the faculty members are one of the best in their field, few of them being gold medalists and researches with high H index. The theoretical aspects that they teach is simple and easy to get, one can become a specialists in Statistics, every student is been attended to and made sure they're getting what is been taught. The teaching method is a mix of old school + modern ways by showing PPT etc. Lectures are really beneficial to pass the exams with flying colours. External exams were being scheduled on time and notified prior, Internals dates can vary depending upon the situation. Exams are easy to pass if one has attended the lectures, read notes and paid attention to past question papers.

Class Size : 60Course Fees : INR 3000 per year

Placement Experience :

In Psychology, the campus placement cell is restricted and 2nd-year Master's Organizational psychology students are eligible for campus placements. As for other students of Psychology who chose another field, there are no campus placement opportunities. There were 10 students selected from my batch out of 15 who were eligible candidates. As I was someone from a Clinical Psychology background, I am not very aware of companies that visited and the highest package they offer. All I can say is, If you chose to study MA Psychology at BHU you'll get a broad spectrum of subjects to chose from but if you don't select organizational psychology in your Masters final year, there are no placement opportunities for you. As far as other departments are considered, the percentage of students being placed is quite high as compared to Psychology students.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

One of the pros of getting admission to the Main Campus of Banaras Hindu University is that the course is really affordable and negligible as compared to other universities and colleges. There will never be a financial burden on students when it comes to paying University fees. There are Scholarships given provided by govt., such as, UP Scholarship which can be availed by certain students, I don't know if there is any other scholarship as I said, the fee is very low. 3000 per year for a course and that's it. There are certain On-Campus job provided by the University for certain students who need financial assistance for which the student has to be vigilant when the Notice comes up, they can fill a form for the same, chose a category such as work as an assistant librarian or work in labs and then an interview is conducted and selection is done.

Campus Life :

There are 2 major fests held in the University. First is Spandan, Annual Cultural Fest which is held in Spet-Oct after faculty fests of FSS, FOC are over and the selected candidates get a chance to perform in the Annual fest, known as Spandan. Another fest is, KashiYatra, organized by IIT BHU which is an annual tech fest including many other events. All faculty students are welcomed to perform. BHU has a Central Library, one of its kind. It has a plethora of books ranging from old to new and has a section of the digital library as well. Classrooms of the uni are well equipped with satisfactory amenities & every class has a Digi board. As far as sports and other activities are considered, there are different clubs such as Sports club and Musical club for which students have to make effort to be a part of, the vast Campus of BHU provides many sports stadium and grounds to practice and play when interfaculty competitions are being held.

University of Allahabad

Remarks:

Our University of Allahabad is one of the most beautiful and splendid university of Uttar Pradesh and India. That's why it is known as Oxford of The East and The Factory of IAS. But due to some political leader and external forces it is loosing its grace.

Oldest university and great education.

Remarks:

Good thing is that it's a central university with many departments, faculties, hospital, hobbies center, games court, stadiums, gym . In short a mini city in Banaras. Bad thing is we don't have department so the funding issues.
