The verdict
Good fit
This is a classic humanities play at a prestigious legacy campus. The fee is almost unbelievable (₹10.5k for the full degree), hostel and scholarships exist, and the syllabus spans Ancient India to Archival Studies. That said, placement stats aren't published, so this is ideal only if you already have a roadmap—UPSC, academia, museums, journalism, or law after BA.
