Fees and Financial Aid:

VIIT Pune is Pune's leading engineering college and the fees is still just 1.06 lakhs. While other Pune colleges charges 3-4 lakhs a year, VIIT Pune is an exception. Plus for SC and ST students Maharashtra goverment scholarship programs make the fees almost nil.

Sweet and savoury side of college

As per Government of Maharashtra rule for girls the education is free for higher education. The yearly fee is only 30000 which is reasonable for the middle class family. There is only one government scholarship for which I have applied. The scholarship covers the remaining fee of the cource.

B tech is a very good opportunist course. Every student opting for the course has a good benifit. To take advantage and utilize all the perks of it, the fee structure for the same is high. According to me btech CE has a very accurate and right pricing of the course and is affordable.

Genuine review for VIIT college.

Acc. to me, the fees for OBC (male) students is 1 lakh 8 thousand for one year and nearly 1 lakh 85 thousand for open students. There are many job and internship opportunities in Viit. There are also different scholarships given to different category students on mahaDBT website.
