- The first major positive for me was tha faculty. The English faculty of ARSD in my opinion is one of the best in DU . The teaching method and interaction level is something you could look forward to if you are thinking of joining ARSd
- Another thing that I liked is the financial affordability and the aids that the college is offering to the students who are not financially sound
Dislikes
- The thing that I dislike the most is the administrative process. Process like registration, application, ommision/addition of subjects are a headache. It might take months for the simplest of task to be completed .
- Another issue is the class size there is 1 teacher for a class of 50 plus students which I think is a major concern
Course Curriculum Overview :
I was really interested in English as a subject ever since I was a child and when I was in 11th I decided to pursue the language in depth. I think the course is really good it gives you insight in literature from different partsof the world . It is the best course if your objective is to build a strong base in english for further studies. The curriculum is relevant with the present market. It prepares us for the the different career paths. The frequency of exams is pretty good and gives us enough time to learn different thing along with aur core subjects. I would personally rate the difficulty level of exams 7/10.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The first year fee for my course English honours was ?14560 which I think is really affordable with regards to the current educational course prices Along with the course fees there is also an expense of ?2000 monthly on transportation. The college provides several scholarships and fee concession to the students with financial needs . Fee concession can range from 500 to 3000 . Scholarship such as HANA scholarship is provided to the deserving students Campus employment rate of the college is average, some students have bagged high packages but mostly it is medicore packages.
Campus Life :
Every department and sociaty has their different fests . The official college fest is TIDE which is organised by the student union. The social life in the college is pretty decent About sports I am on the football team of our college and to be involved in any extracurricular activity is always fun . We represented aur college in inter DU tournament and reliance football tournament along with that we also played many different small sided tournament. The training facilities and benefits are average . Overall my social life experience in the college has been good
Admission :
Students from any stream can opt for BA english honours. The admission process is through CUET , students can opt for any 4 subjects from their streams including English which is mandatory . The subjects I chose were Business studies, economics, fine arts and English I scored 718/800 and I belong to general class so there were no reservation benefits for me For south campus in DU around 700 is a safe score if you belong to general class , for north campus 750+ After the cuet result you have to fill the DU CSAS portal which will allocate you the college. You also have to make a preference list for you ideal college and course combination . Personally I think the admission process was pretty smooth. I didn't face any technical issue.
Faculty :
Even though the faculty to student ratio is not ideal the teachers do their best to keep the classes interactive and approachable for the students. The teaching method and the effectiveness of them is the major pro for me in this college. All the faculty members are highly educated some of them are even authors and translators. Personally for me my interaction with the teachers is not that high but from the teachers side their is no incompetancy .
