Remarks
After class 12th I wanted to do Geography Honours so I made a list of colleges in Delhi University that provide this course. After researching about them Shaheed Bhagat Singh Evening College became my top priority. I got 92% in class 12th. The admission to this college is given based on the highest four(including the subject in which you want to pursue your course+one core language subject). At the time of admission, I was eligible for admission in the first cut-off but due to some problems, I was unable to go to college for the admission process so I went there in the second cut-off. But here's the catch, if you are eligible in the first cutoff but you miss it and you try for a second attempt then they will give you admission on the last day of the second cut-off. Firstly they'll give admission to those who are eligible in the second cut-off but were not eligible in the first cut-off. I had to face this. 1% relaxation is given to girl students in the cutoff.
Course Curriculum Overview
Geography was my favourite subject since school time. Moreover, unlike history i never found it boring because it has practicals to do. If you join this college one thing is sure, you'll enjoy more than any other course. The faculty is great. Very talented and qualified.. Especially the senior faculty. You'll study your practical subjects like Remote sensing and GIS in laboratory. College provide laptops to those who can't afford to buy one but on your own responsibility. Otherwise,there are computers in laboratory too.The educational trips in second and third year of college makes this course much more interesting. Our batch was divided into two sections A and B, each having 40-45 students. The materials for practicals is provided from the lab. You'll learn a lot of things while completing these practicals. A completely different experience. Exams are conducted in a proper and fairway. We never faced any issue of timings and mismanagement during exam time.
Fees and Financial Aid
I belong to a middle-class family and studying at this college was very economical for me. The fees range from 6,000-7,000 per year plus 800-1400 rupees examination fees. And you don't have to buy any material from outside, the college will provide you with everything for practicals. My friend did the same course from Dayal Singh College where(acc to him) his fees were 14,000 rupees per year. The scholarship is also provided to students belonging to the Economically Weaker Section under National Scholarship Scheme.
