Admission to GGSIPU courses is based on the Common Entrance Test (CET), followed by a counseling process influenced by test ranks. For instance, a rank of 307 secured admission to the top college, while a rank of 400 in the BJMC CET led to a seat at VIPS. The admission process includes a fixed counseling fee, three counseling rounds, document verification, and fee submission via Demand Draft. Top journalism colleges require entrance exam ranks under 400.
The faculty is highly qualified, with many pursuing PhDs and having media industry experience, enhancing the learning experience through diverse methods. The college infrastructure is praised, with a supportive environment. The fee structure includes an admission fee of INR 40,000 and annual fees of INR 63,800, totaling INR 191,400 over three years. For the BJMC program, the first-year fee is INR 70,000 plus a INR 10,000 security deposit, with subsequent years costing INR 70,000 each.
The fees are competitive compared to other private institutions and can be paid through various methods. Placement drives attract companies like Wipro and Zee Media, with about 70% of students securing jobs annually. The highest package offered is 9 lakh per annum, with an average of 4-5 lakh per annum. Internships are mandatory, and the placement cell actively organizes recruitment events. However, some students note limited opportunities and favoritism. The college does not offer direct scholarships but provides financial support for students from low-income families and facilitates student loans without collateral.
Annual college fees range from Rs. 1,08,000 to Rs. 1,15,000, with a security deposit of Rs. 5,000. State scholarships are available for eligible students. The total cost for a three-year program is around Rs. 5 lakhs, and there are additional costs for library use and events. No hostel services are offered.
