A beautiful college

Fees and Financial Aid:

The fees of my course is around 2 lakhs in total but in first year we have to a little more money because of the one time caution money, alumni money,registration money etc. Management quota is not available in my course. For reserved candidates there is tution fee waiver system especially for sc/st candidates. Any government scholarships are applicable on merit basis or economic basis

Great Guwahati

The Indian Institute of Technology are really good educational institutions as they are funded by mhrda so the students are asked to do teaching assistance duty by which they can earn money of 12400 per month. This money would only be given if there is no other source of income or else they won't give
