Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) in Punjab offers a large campus with approachable faculty, although teaching quality varies between departments. Despite a balanced student-faculty ratio, administrative delays and strict attendance policies can be frustrating. The curriculum is relevant, but exams are tough, with a 33-42% reappearance rate, partly due to strict grading in mid-semester tests. Placement opportunities are limited, with only 1-2% of students securing jobs in some courses. Postgraduates in financial studies receive an average annual package of about 10 lakhs, with some landing internships at companies like Amazon and Nagarro, offering monthly stipends from 17,000 to 60,000 INR. The average placement package ranges from 3-4 lakhs per annum. The M.Com (Five-Year Integrated Program) costs approximately Rs. 50,000 annually, split between two semesters. SC/ST students may receive scholarships covering most fees, leaving them to pay only Rs. 5,000-7,000 for exams. Other scholarships cater to economically weaker sections and top merit students, although these are less common. Despite its limited focus on placements, GNDU is recognized for its vibrant campus life and sports achievements.
