WANT TO BE SCIENTIST , JUST GET ADMISSION IN IISER KOLKATA

Fees and Financial Aid:

Overall Semester fee per semester( per 6 months) for BS-MS course is approx 43000 to 44000 which includes 7500 for mess establishment charge and hostel and wifi charges. Uf we talk about only tution fee , it is 33000. For sc-st , tution fee is waived. They only have to pay other charges excluding tution fee that is approx 9000 to 10000. If you are qualified kvpy then you get inspire scholarship which is 70000 per year approx. Othan this , if you belong to poor family being obc and general, yes there are funds available for their easiness but you have to ask for it in the academic section. I got admission in 2019 that time per semester fee was 41000 now, in 2024 it is 44000 per semester, now you can easily calculate how much it is increasing per year.

Total as a sum of all fee per semester is 52164. Fee is increasing in all semester. If you belong to sc/st category the you get 100% tuition fee free. Inspire and other scholarship are available. Reservation according to central government norms.

Experience of IISER Kolkata

Dislikes

I can't say I particularly disliked anything, but the pace of course is bit fast.

At first fee structure : at IISER-K, it's very easy if you're under any reservation (SC /ST/ PWD). I mean 1.04 lakh for entire 5 year is affordable. But for general students, the fee is not so low (keeping in mind, this is a Research based college). Now, scholarships : Oh boy, it will be very hard for you to find a single govt scholarship if you're in any IISER. (Ya I know there's INSPIRE scholarship but it's very specific and droppers can't even get it).

Student Snaps:

The fee structure is very low as compared to iits and nits. If you pursue BSMS from is a college which is 5 years course the total expenses is around 6 lakhs this includes everything. If students perform well on boards then students avail the scholarship offer called inspire SHE.

Abir Das's Review On Indian Institute Of Science Education And Research - [IISER], Kolkata

Inspire scholarship and kvpy, nsp scholarships are given by the central government, college doesn't provide any scholarships. This the reason fees is a bit more for middle class families but half of the students get inspire or kvpy scholarships and the quota students always get the advantage with a very less amount to pay.
