- There are times when the convenors can hound over the overall functioning of the society making them limit their potential.
Course Curriculum Overview
The faculty members, at least the ones that had been teaching for a long while were and are amazing and they have been very understanding with valid reasons for setbacks/delays in assignments or tests as well. As for term exams, there has been a belief circling about the unfair checking of papers wherein colleges which are ranked higher undergo stricter checking while colleges which are ranked lower undergo more lenient checking. I hope there is a committee that can look into this issue and ensure fair checking for all irrespective of college ranking or course
Internships Opportunities
I personally did not grab onto the opportunity but my friend recieved an internship offer from Zeetv and students can always reach out to professors for a joint project or aid in their project as well.
Fees and Financial Aid
The feees for the English Department of Miranda House are between 13000 to 14000 which seems doable in my opinion, but I come from a Middle class family so it might defer. As for scholarship, I did not avail any since I don't come under the income bracket and as for placements/jobs on campus, I myself haven't availed those facilities or got any such jobs but I know one or two friends who have from the fests and stands set up by the Placement Cell.
Campus Life
The fest months in Miranda usually begin from end of January to Middle of March. With the Annual Fest, Tempest happening in the middle around February. There is an abundance of books in the library and the projectors are working in most of the classrooms or atleast in the classrooms that I have been having my classes in. The main issue is the air conditioning in the summers which till now I have experienced only one class had a proper functioning AC (in the classes that I attended only of course there maybe other classes with functioning ACs but I have not been in those). The sports equipment is mostly for the sports department but others students can use them with permission and western and indian music choir along with the dramatics society are all very active and thriving. As for a social/cultural group there is the North East society for northeast students and students interested in the northeast
Admission
Since we were the last batch before the implementation of NEP, our admission was based on our board's results. under which I applied to Miranda House along with my ST reservation and I also applied under ECA for creative writing. Ultimately I got admitted and now here I am.
