Sir, I have learned Chinese from a private institute. And now I wish to get an advanced diploma from DU, preferably Daulat ram. I have done HSK-3 but I am not sure if I can get direct admission in advanced diploma on the basis of certificates provided to me by the private institute. Please reply asap sir, because the last date of applying is very near. Thank you.
Usually, Diploma in Chinese from any recognized University is required for Advanced Diploma. Thus, it is difficult to get admission. You can check with the College. Even if you don’t get admission, you can aim for HSK Level V. It is good enough to get a decent job related to Mandarin. 祝好运 (Good Luck!)

Hi Sir,

I’d suggest joining any reputed centre like Instituto Hispania in Panchsheel Park. They also offer Spanish course on weekends and the fee is quite affordable. With some good teaching staff including native, it is also an authorized centre for the SIELE exam in India. Read — Learn Spanish in Delhi.

I have secured 75% marks in 12th. I want to take admission in part-time foreign language course “French” so how can I apply for it for the session 2019-20 and which college should be considered according to my 12th %.
There are approximately 16 DU Colleges with Part-time French course. You can pick few as per the distance and apply when the forms will be available. The cut-off marks change every year so difficult to say where you will get the admission. Read — Learn French in Delhi.
Sir I have got 63% in 12th I want to do a certificate course in Spanish from du can I eligible?

Hello Sir, I’ve passed class 12 with 75% marks Can I get admission in DU with this percentage? And If I can then I have to give an entrance exam? How to prepare?

Sir, I want to pursue a part-time certificate course in either Spanish, French or Korean as I am doing the job and I am free only on Sat and Sun. I got 73% in 12th and my age is 29. Can I get DU college? PS: I need to do from one of DU college only for some reason.
There is no age restriction. You can definitely try. There is one problem. Most of the part-time classes are conducted on weekdays either in the morning (7 to 10) or evening (4 to 7). Very few Colleges offer weekend classes and there is no way one can know in advance.
Thanks for the reply Sir. I have 1 question, will DU mention in the advertisement (during form filling) whether the course is for the weekend or not? If not, then how will I know?
Mostly, they don’t. I’m afraid you cannot know and in any case, weekends classes are rare in DU colleges. The timing is designed by keeping students in mind and not employers. For working professionals, private institutes are better. Check out — Top Language Institutes in Delhi.
Sir, can you please tell me the best option for me to learn Spanish/Korean (any one of them) as a weekend course (Sat and Sun) in Delhi?
For Spanish — Cervantes, Mundo Latino, and Instituto Hispania and Korean — KCC, IICKL, and Arirang. Read — Learn Korean in Delhi and Learn Spanish in Delhi.

There are not many Universities with Bachelor program in Japanese or Chinese or Korean. EFL and BHU are two good options but last date is over for 2019-20 session. DU does not offer such course. Visva-Bharati, Central University of Jharkhand, Tilak Maharashtra Vidyapeeth are few options you can consider.

Hi Vikash Sir,
I want to learn Spanish German and French languages. Kindly suggest from which university I’ll go for admission. JNU registration date was 18th april and I got to know on same day for that. Please help me on this.
Firstly, you have to pick one language between French, German and Spanish. It will take few years to learn only one language. The last date for most of the Universities are over. You can try Language courses in Delhi University. Additionally, as per the choice of your language, you can enroll in any private institute. Check — French Courses in Delhi, German Courses in Delhi and Spanish Courses in Delhi.
Hi Sir, I completed BA English honours from DU in 2013 and have done Masters in English honours from IGNOU, I tried clearing NET exam but with no results. I also did content writing jobs in private sector but experience has not been good and I don’t want to continue with it. Now i’m quite confused about my career as I don’t know what to do next. Will language certificate help me getting some good job opportunities. Or any other option that can give direction to my career?
You have not failed but success seems to evade you. While knowledge of foreign language offers plenty of opportunities but certificate is not enough. Due to competitive job market, Advanced Diploma or B2/equivalent is prerequisite for decent job. These type of language courses will take roughly 3 years. I’d suggest to find a job using your existing skills and at the same time learn a language of your choice. In the long run, the right mix will benefit your career. Good Luck.
Sir,
I am interested in learning Korean and Japanese, but I can only undertake part-time course as I’m working. Can you please suggest the Institutes i can join?
Japanese and Korean are two unrelated languages. The knowledge of one won’t help in other. You can pick one as per your goal and interest. Learning two languages simultaneously may not be a good idea. Since University may not be feasible for working professionals. Thus, you can enroll in any good institute. Read — Korean Institutes in Delhi, Japanese Institutes in Delhi and Korean Vs Japanese Language.
Sir is there any certificate course from any government universities for foreign language courses?
Yes, several colleges affiliated to DU offer Certificate course in a variety of foreign languages.
I completed my graduation last year. Now I want to learn Korean language from Delhi University. Sir please tell me the criteria for the enrollment. Is there any job opportunities after learning Korean Language in India or Korea?
In DU, you are eligible for both 3-year part-time Advanced Diploma from Daulat Ram or 2-year Full-time Advanced Diploma (KF-1,2) from Arts Faculty through entrance test. Admission for both will start in May/June. You can also try private Korean institute in Delhi. There are opportunities but there is only one caveat. The number of Korean specialist jobs are limited and most of these jobs require a very high level of Korean proficiency. This might take 3-5 years! This is possible if you truly interested in learning Korean, and not just K-POP and K-Drama. 🙂 Check — Scope of Korean in India and Advantages of Learning Korean.
Sir when the admission will start for Japanese course.
Sometime in May.
sir, I passed 12th this year. I want to do a diploma course in Japanese. Is this available in du?
Yes, but before the Diploma, you have to pursue a 1-year certificate course.
Sir recently I gave 12th and i am fond of indulging myself in BA Foreign language. Do i require to have prerequisite knowledge about the language I wanna choose say French? Will some prior basic knowledge, alphabets, translation will be helpful? Any book needed to learn so that it will be good to learn from day one?
No. You don’t need any prior knowledge since BA in any language course starts from zero. Alphabets are not required in starting and translation is not the right language learning method. Prior knowledge is good but neither it is required nor make much difference.

Hello sir, I want to know that does it matter if we do French course from government or private college? Which one is better? and if we completed French course BA from private, can we do ma from government? and which is the best private college for doing French course in Delhi? Does college matter for our career? or Knowledge matters more? Sir please tell me I wanna know.
Government Universities are better because (i) Fees are very nominal and you will never be concerned about fees. (ii) They usually hire only eminent and highly-qualified faculty. (iii) The university organizes regular conferences, seminars, events, and sometime also offer scholarships and exchange programs since many Indian Universities have MoU with numerous Universities abroad.
The better, however does not mean you can’t be successful by studying in any pvt institutions. At the end, only knowledge matters! There are few private Universities like Amity with BA in French program though i don’t recommend. The admission for MA in French is done through entrance test and only eligibility criteria is Bachelor degree. You can crack the entrance only on the basis of French skills. It does not matter from where you have studied. Read — French Languge Course in Delhi
I am in Alliance Française B1 A. I want to do my advance diploma from DU. I haven’t done diploma. So what’s the procedure? Can i do masters in French after advanced diploma?

I’d suggest you to continue your French at AFD and try to complete DELF B2. Then your knowledge will be enough for DU or JNU entrance test for MA in French.

Which entrance exam? Amity is an average University and it should never be the 1st option.
I want to learn French but it is 54% in 12th class. Do I have to do with DU or JNU or from a private institute? And if I do not get admission in DU or JNU, then I can do MA (FRENCH) after DELF B1 level. And after doing BA (PRO) can I do MA (FRENCH)? Please suggest to me, sir. I am very confused.
For BA in French, DU cut off usually goes upward of 85%. You can try JNU entrance test. Last date to apply is 15th April. As per your situation, private institute is more realistic option for you. For MA, you need knowledge equivalent to BA/Advanced Diploma in French or DELF B2. Thus after B2, you can try for MA entrance test. Read — JNU French Course and French Classes in Delhi
Sir, I am a graduate from DU, Zakir Husain Delhi College in 2015. I want to learn French and recently I came to know about BA, MA, M Phil, and PhD in French. What is the eligibility criteria? Will Advanced Diploma in French will help me to pursue BA, MA, M.Phil or Ph.D.?
Few points: 1) For BA in French, admission in DU is done only on the basis of marks obtained in 12th. Your bachelor degree won’t make any difference. 2) Knowledge wise, Advanced Diploma and BA in French is more or less same. Thus after Advanced Diploma or BA, you should try for MA entrance test for French. After MA, M.phil and Ph.D is possible. If you want learn French, DU is not the only option. You can also try 2-3 year course in a good institute. Fees will be on higher side but quality will be usually good. Read — French Institutes in Delhi
Sir am I eligible for advance diploma in French from DU? I have done b1 level from Alliance Française de Delhi also have A2 also.
No. For Advanced Diploma, eligibility criteria is Diploma in French from DU or any other University. They may take a test if French course was done from any other institute. Why you need to do Advanced Diploma? In my opinion, DELF B2 is better than Advanced Diploma from DU. Since you’ve already done B1, you can continue studying at AFD with a goal to complete B2 and then C1. Bonne Chance!

Hello sir,
I have done my graduation in 2006 and then started CA but after completing PCC level started doing job. Right now I can’t decide my direction can foreign language course can help me to give right direction to my career and if yes so which course I should do.
While language do offer plenty of career opportunities. It has its own strength and weakness. For example, language learning is a long process and takes 2 to 5 years. There is no benefit of short-term courses. To spend a considerable amount of time, you need everlasting motivation and proper reasons. Only you can decide about that. I’d suggest you to spend some time reading about languages. Eventually, you ‘ll able to take informed and right decision.

Sir how to prepare for CF-1 SLAT. I want to know how to clear language aptitude part. Is there any website or institute to prepare for that?
The SLAT written exam is based on 4 sections — Language Aptitude, Reasoning, English Language and G.K. & Awareness. Since the syllabus is quite generic. Thus, you can buy any book, which covers these sections. I don’t think there is any such website. You can check the last year SLAT entrance paper (Here) to get the idea.

Sir, I would like to know.Is it possible to do MPhil in french having MA in English and advance diploma in french language.
I guess you will be eligible to sit for entrance test. Since no. of seats are few (5-10), it won’t be easy to clear entrance test. As per master question paper for M.Phil in French, not only high proficiency like C1/C2 is required but also good knowledge of French literature, culture and civilization. You need to study beyond Advanced Diploma. You can prepare for 2019 entrance test.

Can i apply for short term courses now sir
Yes, if last date is not over for the respective College.
Sir I have filled the form of Acharya Narendra College to learn Spanish as a certificate course, I know I could get Ramjas or Stephens but haven’t applied because of traveling issue. Someone told me Acharya Narendra is not a good college you should go for a private institute for Spanish like The Instituto Cervantes, New Delhi.
What to do ? Sir please advice
For Short-term courses (not full-time BA, MA, etc), Private Institutes like Cervantes, Mundo Latino and Instituto Hispania are better than any DU Colleges as far as quality of Spanish teaching is concerned. However, class timing may or may not me convenient and affordability are two reasons, many opt for DU Colleges. You can go with pvt. centres.
Sir can we pursue two different language certificate courses at the same time from different colleges of DU
For most Colleges, It is not possible. While It is possible to pursue two different language courses from two department in any academic year. However, I don’t recommend learning two languages simultaneously. Language is a vast subject and you will get confused between the two languages. In the field of languages, quality matters!
Sir, if I’ll get three languages Chinese, Japanese, and Korean and I have also interest in all of these three subjects, which language should I pursue for future according to its demand?
It is very difficult to choose one. If you’re inclined towards anything specific, go with it or choose Mandarin or Japanese. Read – Reasons to learn Japanese , Scope of Korean in India and Why learn Mandarin Chinese

Why are there 39 seats shows as available for JF 2 Course in DU, East Asian Studies, when they directly admit JF 1 students to the JF 2 course. When will be the results announced for JF 2?
I did not get you. Students of JF/KF/CF-1 get direct admission in JF/KF/CF-2 only if they pass the exam. Also, few students don’t continue beyond PG Diploma. That is why for few remaining seats, there is an entrance exam.
There was an entrance for JF 2 in which seats available for the course were 39 out of which 11 seats for OBC, 3 for ST and 6 are reserved for SC . If JF 1 students are directly admitted to the P.G Intensive Advanced diploma course (JF 2) and there are only a few seats available why did the east asian department did not display it on their website with the correct information on seats availibility for students taking the entrance for JF 2?
You are right. I’m not sure why the information was not available to candidates who were appearing for exam. There is a possibility that this time all JF-1 students has to appear for JF-2 entrance exam too? Difficult to say. DU provides very limited information in the age of digitalisation 🙂

Read the article and comment section. Almost everything is mentioned.
Sir tell me if I choose a very good College and not the college which is near my regular college, Means Going for a best college will give me certificate for it’s own name or college will not be mentioned only Delhi University is given on certificate.
College plays a very limited role as far as part-time language courses are concerned. All are affiliated to the various language department of Arts Faculty. They manage everything including faculty, syllabus, examination, etc. Not sure if College name is mentioned or not, but it won’t make any significant difference as all are more or less same and all are affiliated to Arts faculty. At the end, Only Knowledge matters not the College. Regular courses are altogether different thing and Choosing the right College is important.
Sir, I am a student of Delhi University and I would like to take up German language as a certificate course. My best of 4 in 12th standard was 81.75%. I want to know when will the forms be available to apply for the certificate course, what all colleges I can apply to, and what is the eligibility criteria. Thank you

I have filled in the form of Stephens and Ramjas. Can u please also tell other colleges which released their prospectus. Thanks for ur help! 🙂
Yes, you are eligible. However, not all courses are offered on weekends. Many colleges offer classes early morning or late in the afternoon on weekdays. Do check the timing as per your convenient before taking admission. Since language courses are part-time. Thus, most Colleges don’t have the prospects.
Required documents are DoB, ID/Address, Passing certificate & Marksheet (12th or Graduation), Character, few photographs, and SC/ST/OBC Certificate if required. One set of photocopy self-attested & Original for verification.
How will you pursue part-time courses in DU alongside PG course from Jammu University? I guess distance learning? Good luck!
Dear Sir,
I am pursuing PG from distance learning only and hence wanted to pursue language course from DU alongside.
Can you please tell me that how will I get to know about the colleges which are offering weekend batches as not much information is given over the internet regarding the same.
You are like the last person I can connect to get the same info. It will be of great help if u could let me know the names of only those college which are providing weekend batches classes and will they release prospectus or do I need to visit all the respective colleges one by one to get the admission done.
Sorry for bothering and thanks for your utmost support.
Unfortunately, Except few, most Colleges don’t reveal the timing of the classes in advance. Visiting all the Colleges is the only solution. Also DU is not the only option to pursue part-time language courses in Delhi / NCR. You can contact me and i will update you the best options as per your requirement.

Sir my second year starting next month I am going to do Spanish (certificate). So I want to ask which college is best among Ramjas / Hansraj / St Stephens. My top 4 subject marks are 92.25 so I think I’m eligible for these colleges, so please suggest.

Later, you can choose the one as per your convenient class timing, distance and fees. Let me know, once you start learning Spanish 🙂

Hi Sir, I realised that my previous question was a little ambiguous. I wanted to know if I could apply to MA Hispanic at DU with a Bachelor’s in English and a two-years (level II) diploma in Spanish from a recognized university. Does this make me eligible? I am doubtful if this two year diploma would meet the eligibility requirements. Grateful for your help.
Yes. Bachelor in any discipline. BA in Spanish is not mandatory. However, Knowledge of Spanish (equivalent of DELE B1/B2 or Advanced Diploma is required) in order to clear the entrance exam and viva-voce test. Question paper will be in Spanish only. You can check previous year QPs.
Could you please tell me if it’s possible to apply to MA Spanish with a two-year diploma (Level II) degree from a recognized university? Could you also throw light on the placement opportunities available after having studied advanced diploma in Spanish from DU?

Sir, I want to pursue in certificate of French and Arabic simultaneously. Is it possible to do so?
Of course, it is possible. However, I don’t recommend learning two languages simultaneously. My suggestion is to start learning a language, reach at least intermediate level or when you’re confident with the corresponding language, then start the second one if you want to. Most people struggle while learning two at the same time and get confused between the two languages. Moreover, language learning requires lots of time. May not be possible for most. However, It’s a very individual thing.
Several Colleges affiliated to University of Delhi offer Certificate in French. Limited options in D.U. as far as Certificate in Arabic is concerned. Jamia Millia Islamia also offers Certificate in Arabic. If you have to choose one, French is better one. Good luck with your language endeavors, whatever approach you decide is best for you!

Without prior knowledge in German, it is difficult to get direct admission in Diploma courses. First, you need to pursue Certificate in German. There are dozens of Colleges from where you can do Certificate course. After completing the course, you can enroll yourself for Diploma (Direct admission for those who have already completed Certificate from the same college).
Thankuu Sir for such a quick response..can u plz tell me..what the duration of German certificate course?
Duration is 1 year. It’s part-time. Classes are held twice or thrice in a week (1.5 to 2 hrs.)
sir form will be available an online or college provides the form..
If you are interested in short-term language courses, then you need to contact the respective colleges. All Colleges don’t offer online application. Check respective College website. It would be better if you choose few good Colleges and Simply visit the college where you are getting the course of your choice. The admission is direct or on the availability of seats or cut-off/merit list.
