my first year experience at bit mesra

the year wise fees is something around 400000 in total including hostel and academic fees. the mess fees advance to be paid is 35000 and then onwards it is about 20000. talking about scholarships there arent too many for general students but there are some available to category reserved students. but the good thing is that sbi's scholar loan covers up all the fees to be paid and you can get upto 30lacks without any colleteral as this is a tier b college.

Year wise fees is around 460000 for first year and like wise for the remaining years Tuition fees is approximately 143000 caution fees is nearly 9000-10000 same for development fees There is no such lab fees or other compulsory charges. According to me all the rest charges are already included in the academic fees. The fees of all the students studying here are same and equal irrespective of their caste or category. The scholarship program includes some of the schemes offered by the Bihar government .
