One of the most beautiful campus in india

Fees and Financial Aid:

The year wise fees payment for me will be close 1.2 lakhs. These include mess and sem fee. The tution fee is 40400 for my batch for the one semester. Also I have observed a trend fee change in each year. It's increasing new batches. As a conclusion, it's 49630 per semester, excluding the mess charges which is around 17000 and same for all batches in bs ms. I belongs to obc ncl category. I got admission under general category due to some documentation issue. The institution provide reduction of fees to SC ST community only. For them the course fee is completely deducted from the the sem fees. So I would say its around 9000 for them per sem. But they will have to pay the sem fees fully. I don't think institution is providing scholarship and financial aids to the needed ones. But they are constantly providing us information regarding deadline and eligibility for scholarship offered by other organisations. Example : reliance scholarship Overall it's a good institution

IISER Thiruvananthapuram at a glance

Fees and Financial Aid:

The semester wise fees for this course is approximately 44000, but for the SC/ST students the tuition fee is waived, which makes them pay 7000. This is not inclusive of the mess (food) fees. The ness fee is approximately 15000, which I would say is a little expensive compared to the quality of food served. As for scholarships, only the INSPIRE scholarship is available, that too only for selected students. IISER does not provide any scholarship of their own. The campus has it's own placement cell, with is developing with the years, but not very functional.

Fees and Financial Aid:

To be honest, I find that course fee is very high, it should not be this much given we do not have any institute based scholarship and most of the central govt scholarships are income based. It's difficult for some students to pay this much. There are campus placements but in the end of the course only, so I am not the right person to answer this.
