Shikhau's Review on Allahabad University

You get placements for a professional course and not for a regular undergraduate course. Regarding Alumni network, our University organises reunions. Many of the passed out students have joined IAS, IPS, CDS, PCS and other government services.

There are many hostels available for both boys and girls. The fee is around Rs.7000 - 14000 which is returned along with the annual scholarships given by the U.P. government. There are many PGs and delegacies available for students other than hostels for around Rs.4000 per month. Quality of food and their costs depends on different messes available. Wi-Fi campus and several labs, libraries and digital classrooms are available depending on your course.

You have to appear for or passed your 10+2 exams in any stream. You need to appear for Undergraduate Admission Test(UGC NET) and need to score at least 40% out of total marks to get admission in the main campus. 

Attendance is not compulsory so it's up to you how seriously you want to attend regular classes. You need to complete your projects and assignments on time and get them checked by the teacher. Teaching faculty is great. Overall experience is really nice here.

A student needs to pay Rs.1000 per year for a regular degree course. Scholarships are given by Uttar Pradesh Government as well as by the University itself to financially unstable families. Almost all the students who have a family income lower than 1,50,000 per year are eligible for the scholarship and receive the same, directly in their bank accounts while appearing for the annual exams of the University.

There are several associations on campus, especially for B.A. students. You can freely participate in various sports competitions but you first need to get selected for various sports teams. Many cultural and technical events take place from time to time.
