No Hostel + High Cut-off
Scoring 90% in PCB is the entry gate. Also, Maitreyi doesn't have hostel facilities, so plan your South Delhi stay and commute accordingly.
The verdict
Worth considering
If you want an affordable DU degree with a clear bio-research or pharma path, this is a solid budget pick. But the 90% cut-off is steep, hostel life is off the table, and the 50% placement rate means you'll need to hustle for off-campus opportunities too. Great for self-driven students; risky if you need built-in campus infrastructure.
