SPA Delhi is one of the best places in India to study architecture and planning. The campus isn’t huge, but it’s full of life and creativity. Located right in the heart of Delhi near ITO, it’s well-connected and easy to reach.The buildings are a bit old and could use some upgrades, but the vibe here is great. You’ll find passionate students, supportive faculty, and lots of opportunities to explore design, urban planning, and more. The library and studios are the main hangout spots, and there’s always something interesting going on.If you’re into architecture, design, or urban development, this place has a strong reputation and a solid community.

It's a nice college with full of freedom and it's one of the best institutes in India for architecture and planning. Beside this, you can get a degree in Design as well from this college.Utopia is the annual cultural and technical festival here and one must go there, it's for three days and that is literally awesome...

One among the best colleges for Architecture and Planning in India at par with IIT's and NIT's . It is the oldest among the three SPA's in the country. It is also one among the few prestigious institutes to have received the tag of Institute of National Importance. Due to it's location being in prime location of delhi at the ITO, the college is unable to expand. The Infrastructure in designed to cater an old strend of student intake. It has already crossed its limit and is now unable to expand due to limited land available there. Also the hostel for boys is 10km away from the college.However, it's hoped that once the proposed new campus in the land allocated to the college outside delhi gets constructed, things would get better. But, unfortunately the proposal did not get carried forward since more than 10 years. Despite all this, the college provides good quality education to its students.
