The college does not provide scholarships directly to students, but there are several government and local organizational scholarships available. Notable scholarships include the Rajiv Gandhi National Fellowship for SC/ST candidates, Maulana Azad National Fellowship for minority students, Swami Vivekananda Merit-cum-Means Scholarship (SVMCM) where students need at least 60% to qualify, and Aikyashree Scholarship for minorities. Swami Vivekanand scholarships offer up to 20,000 rupees. The college fees are affordable compared to private colleges, with semester fees ranging from 660 to 1050 rupees and total yearly costs around 4,360 to 7,105 rupees, depending on the course.
Despite affordable tuition, the college does not provide placements, and examination fees can be relatively high (up to 1,030 rupees per semester). Students often rely on external scholarships to cover expenses, particularly in expensive regions like Darjeeling.
