IIT Delhi: 8 Answered Questions
View AllHow are the hostel rooms in IIT Delhi?
IIT Delhi has a total of 18 hostels for men, and 2 hostels for women. Each hostel is equipped with basic amenities such as a common room, a reading room, and mess hall. The hostels also have 24-hour security and medical facilities. Additionally, the hostels have a common room, an indoor games room, and a gym.
The buildings are old given the time they were built, yet the facilities are decent. First-year students are allotted triple occupancy rooms while some are allotted double. This depends on the hostel you are assigned as each hostel has different maps and infrastructure. A typical room in an IIT Delhi has:
- 3 beds occupied by many
- Three tables, mostly used for keeping bottles and random stuff
- Three chairs, hardly used for sitting but keeping additional stuff
- 2 almirahs with four slots each.
- 3 wooden showcases for keeping books and stuff like toothbrushes , toothpaste, comb, empty perfume sprays,earphones etc.
- 2 LAN ports for 3 people with additional Wi-Fi facilities.
- Electronic appliances include 2 fans, 2 tube lights, and 4 electricity boards.
All these basic amenities make students stay comfortable. After all, hostel life is all about making memories and new friends.
How is the hostel life of IIT Delhi?
The hostel life of IIT Delhi is one filled with freedom and fun. The hostel never sleeps with the midnight canteen running till 3 in the morning. People spend their time in hostels differently depending on their nature
- Some are holed up in their rooms for entire days
- Some form a group of studious people always discussing nothing but studies
- Some can be seen playing football, partying, and enjoying their time to the fullest
- Some are addicted to games and spend their nights' gaming
The quality of hostel life depends on who you are and varies dramatically from person to person.
Do a PG student get a hostel room in IIT Delhi campus?
Sushmita Guptastudied at Indian Institute of Technology, DelhiIIT Delhi has stopped providing on-campus hostel facilities to PG MTech students specially bound mainly due to the shortage of Hostel rooms inside the campus. Earlier they used to provide off-campus hostels that were in pathetic conditions. But starting from 2020, they have even stopped providing these off-campus hostels and students are expected to arrange for their accommodation.
The students have to go to the hostel inside the campus for mess food and have to roam around without any permanent on-campus residence. Moreover, so much distance between their off campus residence and the college wastes a lot of time and they can hardly spare time for doing additional things like studying for an entrance exam.
New hostels are being built to accommodate MTech students and hopefully, in the coming future you might see better hostel facilities for PG students.
Which is the best hostel in IIT Delhi? Can we choose which hostel we want to stay in?
IIT Delhi has both old as well as new hostels and obviously the new ones have better facilities and infrastructure. The new hostels are Girnar and Udaigiri and have spacious rooms and have 8 floors each with a total of 400 rooms in each hostel. These hostels have a big crowd which means a bigger hostel family to interact with during events. The mess facilities are also considerably better and bigger than old hostels.
The old hostel buildings have only 3-4 floors with smaller rooms and less facilities. But these hostels have a nostalgia associated with many toppers who are successful people today. This spirit keeps the ambiance of these old hostels lively.
Honestly, I wouldn’t say one hostel is better than the other. Every hostel has its unique aspects and cannot be compared.
As for the choice of hostels, no, you cannot choose your hostel. It is allotted to you randomly at the time of admission, every hostel having a mixed bag of students. You cannot change your hostel unless it’s a serious issue.
How are the hostels in IIT Delhi, for girls especially?
Sushmita Guptastudied at Indian Institute of Technology, DelhiThe rooms in the IIT Delhi girls' hostels are rather spacious and decked with basic amenities. For freshers, triple occupancy rooms are allotted.
A typical room in a girls' hostel has basic stuff that every roommate shares such as study tables, chairs, beds, tube lights, windows, and other basic things. Other than this,
- The food served in the mess is of average quality.
- There are no AC or cooler facilities
- The girls' hostel is located close to the academic area
- There are 3 LAN ports in each room.
All in all, the hostel facilities for girls at IIT Delhi are decent.
How's the hostel life in Delhi's top colleges like IIT Delhi, NSIT and DTU?
Akriti Banerjeelives in New DelhiThe hostel life in Delhi's top colleges such as IIT Delhi, NSIT, and DTU is generally considered to be full of roller coaster experiences. You get to interact with such a mixed crowd for the first time in your life and almost everyone here is a genius.
Your most precious memory when you will leave the college will be munching Maggie at the Maggie Baba around 3 in the morning with your friends or playing cricket at 12 midnight. You will miss the Friday night hangouts in lounges and clubs. Girls however suffer because of the curfew effective right at 9 pm. The hostels add to the overall college life experience and if you aren’t staying at a hostel, you are missing out on a lot of fun.
How are hostels at IIT Delhi? Are they well maintained?
Sushmita Guptastudied at Indian Institute of Technology, DelhiIIT Delhi has a total of 13 hostels - 11 for boys and 3 for girls.
In terms of cleanliness, security, network service electricity all the hostels are decent and provide the necessary means for a comfortable stay.
Old hostels: The old hostels lack a few amenities. One big flaw is the lack of lifts despite the hostels having more than 3-4 floors. Moreover, there is only one water filter on the ground floor and it’s a big task for students to come from 3 floors to the ground floor to fill water bottles.
The new hostels have better facilities and even have lifts and water service stationed on every floor. The rooms are also bigger in comparison to the older hostels. Every hostel has night canteens that offer food at subsidiary rates.
Washrooms: The washrooms are cleaned daily and hygiene is maintained. You even have geysers for winter.
Girls' hostels: Everything is very substandard in girls' hostels that are located on a drain because of which a foul smell prevails on the campus throughout the day. The rooms are very few in comparison to the strength and the food served in the mess is pathetic. Availability of rooms is a major problem there and the mess food is pathetic.
IIT Delhi hostels indeed are well maintained but it's important to note that the facilities provided vary from hostel to hostel.
