The hostels are primarily available for students from outside Mumbai, with fees ranging from 4,000 to 8,000 INR per year. Most rooms accommodate 3-4 students, with some facilities offering 2-seater rooms equipped with furniture, AC, and an attached bathroom. However, there are concerns about cleanliness, infrastructure, and overcrowding as some rooms lack closets or shelves for the first two years, and water shortages and mice have been reported. Mess facilities are not uniformly available across all hostels, with only a few hostels inside the campus having a mess, while others rely on three campus canteens.
The cost of living outside the hostel in Mumbai can reach up to 6,009 INR per month for shared accommodations. Hostel infrastructure varies, with some buildings well-maintained and others requiring improvement. Despite these issues, some hostels offer additional amenities such as free food, laundry service, gym, and gaming areas. Space constraints result in limited availability, often forcing first-year students to seek expensive external accommodations.
