No On-Campus Hostel

Maitreyi College does not provide hostel facilities. You will need to arrange private accommodation if you are moving from another city.

The verdict

Worth considering

A solid, budget-friendly M.A. English from a DU college with strong humanities coursework and decent corporate recruitment into KPO and content roles. Ideal if you want the DU network without a hefty fee. Reconsider if you need guaranteed campus housing or a high-placement-ratio, tech-driven curriculum.
