Fees and Financial Aid:

Okay , so the fees doesn't increase or decrease and the fee is paid sem wise (every 6months) so it's almost 2,00,000 per sem and these include the tuition fees n everything , if you opted for hostel than you have to register for that seperately and I'm not sure how exactly is hostel fees since it varies. And people in NRI reservation there fees varies a lot and have to pay much more than us ( these information will be provided in nift page ) . Concerned about the scholarship? Than there is a schemes and more since it's a government college also has scholarship for people other than general category.

The loan also gives the students an amount of 10-15 thousand per month to buy college stationeries as there are no prescribed books and the ones needed are available in the library.

Fees and Financial Aid:

Yes, I opted for an education loan. The college offers scholarship to only SC/ST/OBC students. The biggest loophole of this being a government college is that even if your father is a rich businessman and you show a very humble salary certificate of your father, you can avail this opportunity. My father is a government employee and everything is fair in terms of salary so we opted for an education loan.
