Remarks

We cannot really differentiate between DFS and other private institution management the office bearers, faculties are really helpful the only shortcoming of DFS is that infrastructures sometimes we need to share the seminar room with other departments. The classrooms are Non A.C.But quality of education, guidance we get after bearing only twelve thousand per annum is really unmatched.There are people who leave IIMs and join DFS only to get value education.The writer here has left 6 IIMs (obviously not the older ones) to join DFS.

Entrance Preview

DFS takes CAT score only for its prestigious MBA-FM (formerly MFC) course average score of the batch varies from 92 to 95 percentile every year admission process includes shortlisting based on CAT score and profile,GD followed by PI.

Course Curriculum Overview

4

The course curriculum is one of the best and it certainly comes after the IIMs only if anyone wants an indepth journey with Finance with subsidized rate DFS is the best place you can check the curriculum from official site also. The course is structured in such way that It also covers the syllabus of CFA also.

Internships Opportunities

We have student driven placement and training committee the MBA program is well known program so there is no dearth of opportunities the average summers varies around 30 to 45 k per month and all of the students gets placement.

Placement Experience

4

Since inception DFS has attracted large pool of brightest minds of the country,owing to its very low fee structure,industry based curriculum and best known faculties as the batch strength is very low (avg 35) there are enough choices for students here.The average package for the last batch was around 11lakhs per annum please check our website for details.

College Events

3

The student committee od DFS is known as AFCON (Association of Finance and Control) every year AFCON hosts three major events alumni meet in Bangalore, mumbai and Delhi chapter, annual Convention and ARVNEETI, the management fest convention event is an well known event where interaction,idea exchange happens with industry leaders arvneeti is having B.Plan contest,Cultural program.Apart from this we have mega fresher event and annual outbound team management tour in Himalayas.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Annual fee structure is only twelve thousand so technically a student gets a best MBA degree with the expense of only 3 lakh (upper limit, including all costs).DFS is one of the best institution in terms of ROI students don't have to bear the burden of huge interest after passing out.

Fees and Financial Aid

No loan is needed, the students who have some work experience before joying the MBA can easily bear the expenses by themselves.

Campus Life

3

There is huge diversity is available students comes from every parts of India there is an equal mixtures of Engineers, Commerce graduates, Freshers and Experienced in DFS most of the people are form reputed colleges like St.Stephens, SRCC, Miranda House, NITs, JU etc the experienced students are having exposures in Consulting, IT, Core Manufacturing, FMCG, Pharmacy also .

Hostel Facilities

3.5

Saramati and Aravalli hostel are available for boys and Geetanjali hostel for girls the average intake allotted for our department is 10. The admission is based on merit the months expense including the food is 4000 only, way cheaper in respect to living cost in Delhi staying is hostel is like staying in heaven hostels are situated in little hilly terrain there are huge canopy of tree the vision of peacocks in the compound is a sign of auspiciousness and a soothing for eyes.

Alumni/Alumna

Alumni have a significant role in providing training placements over the years DFS has produced some well known names in finance and banking industry.

Exam Structure

Exam schedule and structure is semester based it follows standard DU rules there are average 7 papers in each semester exam super specialization in finance subjects like Insuarance, Analytics are also there normally exam are over within a week no gap is available between two subjects.

Admission

Admission notification publishes during October DFS has a joint admission process with Department of Business Economics which offers MBA in Business economics.However admission process in conducted separately DFS office administration is very cordial and helpful.

Faculty

4.5

In DFS all faculties are doctorates most of them are having rich experiences in finance as our batch size is also small(officially 40) so every individual got personal attention from teachers we also have foreign collaborations and exchange programs.Interaction sessions with industry leaders and reputed alumni are arranged in every month.
