Miranda house : A home of learning and growth
Likes
- I like the culture and fest season of Miranda house. Each department has their own fest. Seminar's and intership opportunities are also available for students. Faculty is very kind and helpful towards the students. I love to hangout with my friends near the canteen and in Nescafe lawns. It’s no surprise that many movies and advertisements have been shot here. The campus is full of lush green gardens and in the month of February , all kinds of flowers are grown there. It's so beautiful and breathtaking view. A perfect spot to sit and relax.
- Another thing is the library, The library is massive, with an extensive collection of books and a comfortable reading space. Many classrooms have air conditioning. There's a huge auditorium and a mini auditorium. There's also a heritage hall where students can held their society meetings and all. There's a student activity centre (SAC) specially for students. The campus is so so big and beautiful. The canteen's food is also good and there's a Millet canteen where aunty serves homemade food at affordable prices.
Dislikes
- Prices has rised in pam canteen. And in the washroom there's no handwash or soap. The washroom's are not cleaned properly. The canteen food is average and the quantity is very decent.
- Not every class has digital board and air conditioning. There's no shortcut to go to the new building. Overall the campus is all good.
Remarks :
When I first applied in DU, political science was my first preference in the list but I got English honours in Miranda house instead. The cut off was so high this year for all the subjects. The highest cutoff for english honours was 770. To take admission in Delhi University each student have to give CUET exam. And to get addmission in North campus colleges above 750+ is a safe score for General category and for SC quota I scored 643 in CUET in exam. The addmission process is easy we will be given the allotted seat according to our preference list by DU. If the student wants to take admission in that course they will submit the fees and their seat is confirmed and if they want to look for another college they can upgrade the list and wait for 2,3 allocation rounds. No I didn't face any discussions or interviews for admission. Only CUET exam was in written mode this year (2024). For SC and ST the seats are reserved for them.

Hostel Facilities :
I don't live in hostel. But the hostel of Miranda house is in the campus and the infrastructure is really beautiful from outside as well as inside. It provides a safe, comfortable, and lively environment for students coming from different parts of the country and even abroad. Each room is well furnished with beds, study table, chairs, wardrobe, watercoolers and etc. A common mess where students eat their food. The mess food is average. Library accesss for quite study sessions. The mess serves food three times a day and vegetarian and non-vegetarian both options are available. Curfew time is 9pm for students. Not everyone got hostel rooms so many students are living in pg nearby the campus. Nearest PG's are in vijay nagar, kamla nagar, Hudson lane. They are all at 10 min walking distance from the college.

Gargi Colleg , Delhi university
Placement Experience :
The placement is good for students of commerce background and even many arts students get placement. But for science students, there are rarely any science background companies hiring as even as an intern. Many science students go for higher studies. So, Rarely science students get placement and if placed then not in company of science background.
