Remarks :
I choose this college because I wanted to do something else as well side by side and start earning as soon as possible. I did apply for different colleges but I personally didnt wanted that college life so I decided not to pursue their further. The admission process in SOL is pretty simple. You have to fill a form and choose the course. You should have that subject in class 11 and 12 th only then you're eligible for the course. After that you have to pay the fees for an year.
Course Curriculum Overview :
The course curriculum is mainly same as that of what I studied in class 12th. The only difference is that it is depth.The curriculum is relevant to and is comprehensive as well. The curriculum itself does not prepare you for real world applications, you have to prepare extra and find internships and put in effort. The course could have been improved if it was simple ro understand even for those who are studying psychology for the first time. The exams are not that difficult and timings are also as they should be so there is no issue in that.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
There are no scholarships available but they do provide financial aid to students who score above 8 CGPA. But surprising not even student could get above 8 CGPA in the first year. They also promise to shift the students to regular college if there performance is exceptional.
Campus Life :
There is no campus life in SOL. You have classes once a week from 10-4 and. The infrastructure is pretty bad specially in summers, even the fans don't work and there are too many students in one class so it's pretty hard to manage. Books and study material are provided after taking an appointment. They are good condition. There are no groups or clubs in SOL. Also there are no extracurricular activities.
Faculty :
The faculty of Psychology department is pretty educated, supportive and helpful. They do provide and help students with the best of their abilities but the system it self fails on its behalf, whether it's about distribution of study material, examination schedule or starting the new semester. Course Structure: 6 semester in total Classes on every Sunday Practical exams are taken online(usually 2 weeks before theory exams) Exam System There are both online and offline examination. Online examination is time limited and MCQ based. You have to login through pragyan portal of du to take the examination. Offline exam is of 3 hours. centre and dates are provided in datesheet. Marking schemes : You are marked based on both online and offline exams. If you have compartment in any subject, you can give the paper again in the alternative semester.

North Campus - Things no one talks about.
Course Curriculum Overview :
My course is B.A. (Hons.) Economics. The curriculum seems pretty outdated to me. I don't think it's really relevant in today's day and age but yet the basics are the same. The theories are the same. I feel more focus should be on practical training. For example sometimes the professors give meaningless assignments which has not relevance. In place of that they can provide the assignment which will have some real world implications and make a person job ready. The exams for economics are pretty hard as compared to other courses. The average cgpa is also low as compared to most of the courses. Changes in curriculum can have postive changes in the moral of a student. While selecting the course it's not clear what can we expect from the course. I feel that a student should have full idea of what the course is all about while selecting a college course because it will be with you for you whole life. The university need to update their curriculum and the maine focus should be on practicals.
