Remarks
I chose JMI because it is India's top Central University. Additionally, it is located in the national capital. JMI has a great reputation in academic circles and is well known for the massive opportunities it provides to its students. Also, JMI follows an entrance exam, unlike the merit-based admission process which I felt gives JMI an edge over others. JMI conducts it's own entrance examination. Due to covid, our exam was held in November. The results came out subsequently and the admission procedure took place in the campus itself from 1-3 Dec 2020. The classes started from 15th December One can find all the information regarding admission and other related stuff on The Jamia Review's website. They have a dedicated admissions section. Past year papers can be found as well. Preparation of the entrance exam is moderately required. Questions too are not very difficult.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course as I always had a keen interest in Economics. I want to further pursue Economics in master's as well. The curriculum is quite rigorous and well structured. The ones opting for Economics Hons in JMI and who want to pursue Economics further must choose mathematics as their subsidiary subject. JMI also provides choice-based subjects wherein one is free to choose any subject from all the departments of the university. The professors in JMI are very well qualified and dedicated. Exams were conducted in the Open Book mode due to covid
Placement Experience
Generally, undergraduate students of Economics don't opt for placements. The placement cell is active for the master's degree and is doing a decent job. Some students do go for off-campus placement. Jobs available are very limited immediately after UG.
Fees and Financial Aid
The annual fees stand at Rs 7,200. This includes the tuition fees, examination fees, library charges and other related costs. The cost of accommodation is not included. That has to be managed by the students themselves. Multiple scholarships are available that one can apply for given the fact that he/she fulfills the criteria.
Campus Life
Well, we haven't been to the university yet due to covid but our seniors tell us that JMI campus is extremely vibrant and lively. The library is incredibly huge and amazing. We have received credentials for online access of the library as well. The classrooms are decent. Pretty nice infrastructure for sports. Many societies and other global organizations are very active. Enactus, The Jamia Review, 180DC, CDF are some of them.
Hostel Facilities
Since we haven't gone to the campus so we are not aware of the latest prices. The last known hostel fees was 30,000. The application form needs to be filled and a personal interview too might take place. The culture of the same is very diverse
