Swami Shraddhanand College, Delhi Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

The infrastructure of the college is not too good, there are two buildings; the new building belongs to the science students which is good, but since i pursued B.com, our building was old and dingy. The library was good with diversified collection; students had access to free WiFi services throughout the college. The labs had the necessary equipment and the the sports' facilities were remarkable. But, the washrooms were not well-kept and there were issues with cleanliness all over the campus.

The teachers were qualified and highly experienced; regular tests were taken to make students study on a regular basis.The teachers were cooperative and guided at each point. The only limitation was that they did not use the smart board already installed in classrooms and the lectures were sometimes monotonous due to excessive theory. The course was updated always and the teachers used to encourage us to go beyond bookish knowledge.

The placement drive was not inclusive and only some students enjoyed job offers like students belonging to commerce and economics. There is no placement cell, unlike other colleges in Delhi University. Many companies recruit students but there's no much scope for the students of science and arts. Also, the companies are not very big names and the average package is meager, close to just 4 lac PA. It was difficult to find good jobs off campus due to unavailability of the companies on campus.

The course fee was cheap and affordable, mine being close to 8k per year. SSN does not have a luxurious college life to offer as one desires, and falls behind other colleges of DU in terms of everything. The cut-off percentage is also low, and hence the lagging behind of the college. But there are opportunities within the college to develop skills in extra curricular activities.

The campus life is okayish. The campus is located at the outskirts of Delhi, with the nearest metro station being more than 5 km away from the college. There are no places to hang out outside the college. On the contrary, there are societies in college like dance, music and theater for honing skills. There are some educational societies too, where the students can engage themselves. Sports is a highlight in SSN, especially cricket, with some players even playing the IPL.

If anyone wishes to excel in cricket, then there is no better place than SSN. It is the top team in Delhi with big names. The ground is amazing with A-level coaches visiting the college. The cultural fest in the winters is also good.
