Dyal Singh College does not offer hostel facilities. If you're moving from another city, budget for a PG or shared flat in student pockets like Vijay Nagar or Laxmi Nagar.
The verdict
Good fit
If you want a legit DU Political Science degree at a fee that won't leave you broke, this hits the mark. The CUET cut-off keeps the peer group sharp, and the curriculum is basically foundational UPSC prep. Just know there's no hostel, and the 50% placement figure leans toward BPO/KPO and NGO roles—so you'll need to hustle for your own internships and research gigs.
