RIT. THE TRUTH UNVEILED

Fees and Financial Aid:

RIT is a gov based college so that the fee structure is actually less than that of all aided and self-financing engineering colleges. For the students that acquired the seat by state merit will be having 8650 indian rupees every year as the tution fees and other additional fees like transportation, hostel, parents teachers commision will be seperate. Parents teachers commision (PTC) fees is paid at the time of admission which was around 7500 at the time of my admission and it does increase every year as the facilities and availablities of the college is increasing. When it comes to the fee structure of other reserved seats like SC/ST , EWS , FW the fees is less comparing to state merit seats. My friend who got admission as a fee waiver (FW)has a tution fees of 3650 indian rupees. PTC fees is compulsory for all category. College does provide many scholarships. The most popular scholarships are :- 1) E-grantz 2) Alumni scholarship 3) Vidyasamunadhi
