Great achievement no doubt, but will this actually improve the student experience? Last I heard, many departments still face shortage of professors and outdated lab equipment. Hope the administration uses this momentum to address ground realities.

As an international student considering DU, this is really encouraging news! Does anyone know if this will affect the admission process or fees structure for foreign students?

The real test will be whether this translates into better placements and industry recognition. Many DU graduates still struggle to find good jobs despite the university's reputation.

My daughter is in 12th standard now and we were confused between DU and private universities. This news has made our decision easier! The NAAC rating shows government universities can match global standards.
