Additionally, merit scholarships are awarded to department toppers, with a full tuition fee waiver and additional financial support. Educational loans are accessible from campus banks such as SBI and Canara Bank, often at low or zero interest rates, especially for families with incomes below Rs. 9 lakh.

The total cost for a 4-year BTech program, including hostel and mess fees, is approximately Rs. 12-13 lakh, with several scholarships and financial aid programs available to support students from low-income backgrounds.
