Placements & Internships : Since I was in an English course, we didn't primarily have a dedicated internship cell for the department. Still, Delhi University per se has an environment of availing internships on your own. You can apply in publishing or in content creating online or via internship fairs organized in the university. Some people also participate in research conferences to get experience in the field of research if you are later interested in getting a PhD. The usual stipend for content writing internships ranges from anywhere between 5K to 10K, depending on the time you are ready to invest while juggling with your academics. Most people pursue a Masters in English if they are interested in a lectureship.

Entrance Exams & Admissions : Miranda House is affiliated with the University of Delhi, and its entrance is based on the final percentage in the 12th examination. The college releases its cut-off list every year for different courses. If one is clearing the cut-off list, one can apply for the college by submitting the required documents. The college authenticates your documents and marks, and if you are clearing the cut-off, you are admitted. I enrolled in B.A. Honors (English) course and the cut-off for general category was 95.75%. The cut-off has usually ranged from 96% to 98% over the last few years for the general category. You can see the past year's cut-off on the website of the college for each course.

Fees & Scholarships : The course fee was decent at around 12000 a year. So it was very affordable for all the students coming from any economic background. But if someone still needs a scholarship, they can avail of it. The website of Delhi University has several scholarships available if they fulfill the required academic merit and proof of financial instability. Students from the reserved category can additionally avail Dr. B.R. Ambedkar State Topper Award.

Academics & Faculty : The class timings are usually from 9 AM to 2 PM with many breaks in between depending on the classes you have taken. Saturdays are lighter as compared to the rest of the days. In the third year, both Saturday and Sunday are off. Apart from the regular classes, Wednesdays are mostly reserved for tutorials which involve a smaller group of students interacting with the professor. The quality and method of teaching are excellent. The professors are very qualified and are always there to guide you. The classes are very enriching in the English department and usually have a discussion-based approach. I learnt a lot from the qualified faculty, who were very kind and encouraging at all times.
