Additional costs include an annual hostel fee of 7700 and a monthly mess fee of 2500. Registration fees cover bus and library charges. Scholarships, such as the Pragati Scholarship offering 50,000, are available based on qualifications. While there might be slight fee increases, they remain within an additional 1000 to 2000.

Northeastern hill university is it worth studying?

The curriculum is flexible for all types of students

Dislikes

There are good labs but they are not well functioning

.The overfall fees of the btech course will be around 2 to 3 lakhs which i think is normal or is affordable for a 4 yr course. . There are many scholarships schemes provided the government to the students and the university administration keep us well informed about it. .The hostel fee for a year is 7700 which is quite a good deal,but you have to pay 2500 monthly for the mess dues in hostel.
