What Students Say
Likes
- Teh beauty of IIT Kharagpur can never be described in words as even though it's in a remote location but it is among the most beautiful campuses one will see.

- There's a tech market inside our campus and we can get any thing be it mouse or keyboard or pendrive, we get everything inside the campus itself.
Dislikes
- It's literally inside a village and we have not a single good market close to the campus.
Course Curriculum Overview
Academics here are fit firing and I don't think one can ask for anymore than that. Academics here work out so well that no trouble whatsoever with a academics as even though toughest papers are set, all students still not just pass but pass with flying colours.
Placement Experience
Students are prepared for placements right from the third semester. Indusrrial training is provided to us and engineering industries like L&T, Bhel, IRS and HAL among others which are in full swing are among the colleges that hires IIT KGP students with an average package of no less than 15-18 lakhs yearly.
Fees and Financial Aid
IIT Kho which is the third highest ranked IITs charges 3 and a half lakhs a year. The fees ain't that heavy and all the IITs have the same fees be it IIT Delhi or IIT Bombay or the others. For all SC students the IIT Kharagpur has Central Sector Scholarship Scheme through which all SC students get 30% scholarship.
Campus Life
To make memories we mostly go to night canteen as it is the heartthrob of our campus. Hall Days, Techno Fest Kshitij and Spring fest are among some of the fests that IIT KGP hosts. For sports we have cricket grounds, hockey grounds, swimming pool and what not.
Hostel Facilities
Hostels here are quite a few and 2 mess. I stay in a three seater room which accounts for 60k every year. Twice in a week we are given non vegetarian food and rest all days we have to manage with vegetarian food.
Admission
IIT KGP accepts top 1000 students only from JEE Maine so it's a no brainer that I was not rejected from anywhere. It was not just a childhood but the one for which I prepared for JEE Mains like thousands and lakhs of students every year. I felt relieved when I finally saw my name in IIT KGP's list.
Faculty
Faculties of IIT KGP are the best in country and that's no open secret. Faculties standard is going up with every semester that we move on. All in all, faculties here a perfect package of experience and knowledge as they have both of them in abundance.
Night Life
IIT Kharagpur is in a village but many business people know the potential of business it can draw. Hence top cafes such as Kafferine Cafe which is opposite to our campus is flooded with the students. Cafe Coffee Day outlet is also there and last but not the least it's the food studio as it serves food in minutes.
