A life of GCE SALEM student

I was selected to this college in general oc category by tnea councelling with the cut - off 182.8 out of 200. I am currently pursuing my BE (Hons)specialized in civil engineering , at Government College of Engineering, Salem. For the first year initially I paid 5,000 as deposit and academic fees of 9,000 .Exam fees is based on number of papers you have for the semester( i.e Rs.225 per theory and practical paper and other fees for grade sheet is 220) Apart from this my hostel fees is almost 11,000 for the first year. Additionally monthly fees of 2500 was paid for my food . Then to next all three years of college my academic fees is about below 15,000 each year including exam fees for 2 semester in a year.. and my hostel fees is about below 8000 per year (without including mess fees 2 to 2.5 k per month ). Caste regulated scholarship is available for the students of lower economy level . Especially the first graduate of a family is having separate lower level fees structure in our college. The students of 7.5 % category from government school have no fees all over the three years , additional to that they are claiming 1,000 per month from the government of tamilnadu in the name of scholarship puthumaipenn and thamizh puthalvan . Every year our department of civil engineering provides alumini scholarship of 10,000 to the top 2 students of every year out of 120 students .
