Real college is far different from which we see online .

Hey there it is very obvious that a student whose family income is less than 1 lacs they have not pay tution fee as other pay people having family income between 1 and 5 lacs they pay only one third of the tution fee and above 5 five lacs pays full tution fee i.e 62500 approx. There are many scholarship available for students studying in the college. Like reliance, ffe ,nsp and many more . Fee structure for the sc st category is as same as the below 1 lacs one .

Good But Terms and conditions apply

Yearly we would be paying around 1,40,000rs Since I am belonging to open category but if your family income is below 5 lacs or 1 lac you can avail the scholarship provided by the govt .overall college have very good facilities.Labs are equipped to enough amounts. We have many clubs for extra curricular activities.there are many sports clubs which are funded by government. We don't need to pay any money after paying fees. But in some cases seniors might ask money for the branch fees . branch is utilised for freshers party, some extra curricular activities held by the respective branches,any science expos held by the branches . Here no money goes useless .
