No Hostel, But Scholarships On

Shivaji College doesn't offer on-campus hostel facilities, so budget for a PG or commute if you're from outside Delhi. That said, the college does provide scholarships for meritorious students.

The verdict

Strong fit

For a Delhi-based student (or someone willing to rent nearby), this is a no-brainer. You get a DU degree, NAAC 'A' tag, Big 4 placement access, and a full 3-year program that costs less than most semesters at private colleges. The 95% cutoff is brutal, but if you clear it, the ROI is elite.
