In all honesty, the answer to both these questions is No. 

Initially, this setup was present in the main campus itself as School of Behavioral Studies. Later on, it was shifted to Dera Bassi as LMTSOM. The Patiala campus offers much more facilities and exposure to its students.

Moreover, the Patiala campus is located in the heart of Patiala city. On the other hand, the Dera Bassi campus is located in the middle of a village, that too in a secluded area. The fee structure is almost similar at both the campuses. It mainly depends on the course. Moreover, fee is not the primary concern in this case. There are other more important factors that you must not overlook. 

Personally, I wouldn’t recommend the Dera Bassi campus of Thapar University.

Some of my friends studied at Thapar University, so I might be able to give you some information about it. So before you decide, here is some basic information that you should need to know. 

Placement

  • The placement opportunities of the Patiala campus are similar to the Dera Bassi campus. 
  • However, the hassle will follow up usually during the 7th semester since the daily journey might cause issues to students. 

Faculty: It is quite good but not the same as the Patiala campus.

Facilities:

  • The Dera Bassi campus is good and has no issues whatsoever. 
  • The guards in the institute are not as strict as the guards on the Patiala campus. 
  • However, it does not have any similar sports facilities that you can usually enjoy at the former institute.
  • You cannot usually enjoy the cultural events in the institute.

Accommodations

  • The hostels are generally very good. The rooms are well established, furnished, and equally equipped with necessary items. 
  • However, if compared with Dera Bassi campus, the food at the Patiala campus is very basic and can possibly be termed as tasteless.

The fee structure of the Dera Bassi campus is mostly low, but when shifting focus to whether or not it is worth it, then possibly it is not. Hope this helps answer your query.
