St. Stephen’s College: 1 Answered Question

What is the worst thing about St Stephens College Delhi University?

Gaurang Sharmastudied Masters from St. Stephen's College, University of Delhi (2017)

Getting a seat at St. Stephens College is a dream for every student but it is an impossible task. One of the worst things can be bribery and discrimination for admission to this prestigious college. Apart from this, the following can also be some more reasons:

  • The college has strict guidelines for female students and imposes a curfew after 10 PM. There is no restriction for male students and they can have as much fun.
  • St. Stephen’s favors Malayali students and the college administration easily admits them.
  • The food at the mess is neither tasty nor good. You can easily have the food from outlets outside the campus.
  • You cannot issue more than 3 books from the library and have to return them in a week. Whereas, colleges like Ramjas give 6 books for 15 days.
  • The fests at St. Stephen’s College are extremely boring and you will not enjoy them.

Regardless of these disadvantages, St. Stephen’s is incomparable in terms of academics and the crowd.
