Ridhima Sharma's Review On Shyam Lal College - [SLC], New Delhi

College is overall good. But yes management is a bit careless. Decision making takes longer time than ever. A little construction is needed, which is actually taking a lot of time. Otherwise, the institution is good enough for all.

The most important point for opting this college over GGSIPU was that it is under Delhi University. Also, I wanted to do English honors so DU stands best for Arts courses. Thus I opted for this one. And we can say to a middle-class student, its fee structure.

Soon after the course starts course material PDFs are shared through WhatsApp groups etc. And if not everything is available at DU's official site and many other sites on net has the access or juniors can asl their seniors regarding that. So nothing to worry about that.

At the end of the final year, students get placed according to their grades and internships and experience during all these years. Job prospects are good according to bachelor courses. But I personally prefer further studying and then an option for a job or get placed.

During the course every year, there are multiple events celebrated. Many societies arrange for various events off and on. College yearly fest is arranged in January. Freshers are welcomed as they come in July. Farewell functions are done in February. And many other events are organized.

The fee structure is around 12000-15000 per year for all courses. It's really really inexpensive as compared to other private colleges. All the college expenses are included in this only. Expect these, other expenses are borne by the student themselves.

There is relaxation for special category student i.e their fee is a bit less than general students.

The campus is wide enough. We have a spacious canteen, sports area, and garden etc. Our college has a top ranking in sports and dramatics. Debating society is active in our colleges moreover we have a poetry club, E-cell which is very evident amongst all, Dance society and many more. Labs are good enough.

We don't have a hostel facility. So students have to opt for pgs which are available in nearby areas. Monthly rent is around 5000 or so. Food can be availed by either pg itself or they can hire a cook for themselves. Tiffen centers are there too so they can get it from there also.

Of course, these networks are helpful. Contact must be built and made for future use. So these networks are really good.

We have semester system here. So two semesters are there in a year. After 6 months we have exams in the month of December and may. In each of 100 marks, we have our class assignment(10), a class test(10), attendance(5) and this semester exam(75) included. Most of the courses have an allocation of marks like that only.

So it was in 2017, I got my name in 10th list. And then I had to go to college which is in shahadra, Delhi. Nearest metro station is welcome(red line). Then verification of the documents had to be done. Documents required were - 12th and 10th class marksheet (original and copy), -recent character certificate, -provisional certificate, -Transfer certificate of school/college -passport size photographs (self attested) (5) -SC/ST/PwD/CW/KM Certificate (in the name of the applicant) issued by the competent authority , - OBC (non-Creamy Layer) Certificate (in the name of the applicant) as in central list *Do keep 2-3 copy of every document to be at ease* Everything was verified by a staff member. It took around 45 min for the process to complete and after that fee has to be paid online.

Teachers are really co-operative, we can either talk to them directly about the course and clear out our doubts or they do provide us with their contact numbers, so students can contact them too. But of course, decency has to be maintained by them too.
