Good exposure to real life based case studies and helps in managing time

The total fees for PGDM-HB was 110000. It can be paid as a whole amount and also there are options for installment i.e for year 1, 24000 as down payment and then 15000-15000 (2 PDCs are to be submitted). And similarly for year 2. And if a person is oting PCF (Personal contact facility), then there are extra charges for the same, this will help the hybrid ones to attend the classes on campus for few days in a week ( the same will be informed to you prior to scheduled TT) For scholarship, it's not available at HB programs, however if a student has opted on campus admission, then he shall be eligible to avail the same.

My welingkar experience

Dislikes

The schedule at times get very hectic and the college doesn't get flexible

The current fee structure for students is Rs 1400000.The fees payment is very flexible and one can avail loan services as well. By providing income certificate one can also get waiver in fees depending on the merit list.

Life at WeSchool

The program curriculum focuses on equipping students with relevant skills and knowledge aligned with current industry demands

The program fees at WeSchool can be quite high, which might pose a financial challenge for some students.

Tuition fees for the PGDM program is 7,00,000 per year for the batch 2023-25. The complete cost of your education, including tuition, service fees, and other compulsory charges is around 17,00,000. College provides TFWS for students with low family income.

Everything you need to know about Weschool

various options are available to increase individual potential.
ROI is good according to the fees and location is great

the fees of 2022 batch is 13lakh for full couse and for 2023 batch it is 14 lakhs and can be funded by banking partners like ICICI and BOB at less interest rates. In case of financial assistance, you need to talk to the accounts department for any concession possible. this is considered only in rare cases and scolarships are provided by banks and not the institutions if any.
