The verdict
Worth considering
The program is ridiculously affordable, UGC-recognized, and offers hostel + scholarship support. But the low confidence score (40%) and missing placement stats mean you should reach out to current students or alumni about career outcomes before committing. The NIRF ranking is also in Commerce & Management, not Arts, so take it with a pinch of salt for English lit.
