"Genuine Review of BCA at ADP College: Good Faculty but Average Placements"

Since BCA is a self-financed professional course at ADP College, the fees are a bit higher than the regular arts or science streams. I pay around Rs. 50,000 per year. This fee covers the tuition, computer lab charges, library fees, and other union funds. Apart from the yearly admission fees, we have to pay the examination fees separately to Gauhati University during the form fill-up of every semester. That costs around Rs. 1,000 to 1,500 depending on the practical subjects. regarding scholarships, most students here apply for the 'Ishan Uday' scholarship (UGC) which is very popular in the North East. If you maintain a good percentage and attendance, you can also apply for the state merit scholarship. The fee hike is not very frequent, so the cost is predictable for the 3-year duration."

The fees are semester wise which is around 7000 so for the whole year you need to pay nearly 15000 . As I had ration card so I got the free admission benefit . I haven't got much idea about fees of other courses but I do know that the fees of bba and bca are more than 20000 per semester . Students do get financial aid if the provide either their income certificate or ration card of their parents

A college where there is a joy but no future secure

hello collegedunia !! I'm currently studying in Biswanath College . So , I'm a student of Bachaelor of Computer Science & Application 1st sem . this a 3 year course and 6 sem . For the admission of 1st sem students , I had to pay rs 10,000 . and for the rest of the sem , I'll have pay rs 8000 per sem . and rs 3000 for the registration each sem before the sem final exam . As I'm a 1st sem student , so I don't know whether the fees is increasing or not but when I asked my seniors , they answered ' NO ' . no extra fees will be taken as the second point asked me . Everbody will have to pay the same amount here caste , parents job or not , income certificate etc. doesn't matter . For different courses , there will be different criteria of admission in our college . For commerce students , it's 8000 per year and for BA & B.Sc students it varies because BCA & B.Com are private course and BA & B.Sc are government courses but the college is government . For B.Sc and BA , you'll have to pay nothing if you have BPL but if your parents does government job or anuall income if 4.5lakh plus , then you'll have to pay rs 200 in your admission . And lastly regarding scholarships or any other schemes for financial support , Assam government launched a scheme called Nijut Moina Asoni where only female UG students could apply and those who have applied , they got the cheque of rs 1250 per month . this was a scheme not a scholarship . Mainly 4 scholarships were available in our college . first is Ishan Uday Scholarship , NSP (ST/OBC) Scholarship , NSP (SC) Scholarship , UGC National Scholarship . Here , only Ishan Uday and UGC are merit based. Course is too expensive so I gave only 2 star
