Life at Stephen's!

I had mainly applied in DU colleges as I wasn't much interested in private universities, or colleges in other states. Mine was the first batch to be recruited with the new process through CUET Exams. The novelty and uncertainity therefore influenced the conventional way of thinking about colleges and related decisions. Nevertheless Stephen's was my top choice due to its highest ranking and prestige all over India. The reputation of this college, its course, its faculty and ofcourse the colourful alumnis made me choose this college and course as my first preference. The extremely high competition for admission in this college was what made me hesitant. I had the Christian minority reservation, yet I was unsure if I could get in, Therefore I had applied to other reputed colleges in DU. I had got admission in Kamala Nehru College in South Campus in my first round, and I was satisfied because the college was also excellent. Then I had applied to Stephen's and JMC with my minority quota, and I got into both of the colleges for the desired courses. However I chose Stephen's over JMC, due to the appeal, reputation, and also the location (in the centre of DU North Campus). History Honours is one of the best and most sought after course in Stephen's with its rich faculty. The admission process had changed with the new NEP and CUET in order. Each desiired undergraduate course has its own eligibility criteria with respect to the subjects selceted in Class XII and the subjects one has to choose as papers for CUET. The details are found in the CUET Samarth website. The cutoff for History hons isnt oublicly available. Selection of Christian minority students had 85% for CUET Score and 15% weightage for interviews. Non minorities have 100% weightage from CUET. Students in history largely had CUET Scores ranging from 800-600 out of 800. The admission process was very smooth in general....Read More

I had always heard about St Stephen's College and dreamt of becoming a part of the English department there. My ambition is to become a filmmaker. So i thought getting to read and learn about literature in depth would help me draft good stories for my films. The one thing that I love about this college is the number of societies they have. They have around 40+ societies. The best part is that all the societies are run by students and the college doesn't play any role in the functioning of any of these societies....Read More

College is a really nice place to be in. The students are very lovely, the seniors are very friendly, professors with all their experience and knowledge are great, the college staffs are very easygoing but the college management is a bit hardshell to crack. For any small work you need to e-file it to the principal and who knows when he would reply to that. Till that time your work gets stuck.The college fees should not include extra charges which are not necessary....Read More
