Fees and Financial Aid:

The fee of my batch of this course in the college USAP(University School Of Architecture And Planning) under the university, Guru Gobind Singh Indraprasth University was roughly around 1,75,500 (One Lakh Seventy Five Thousand And Five Hundred only). the fee structure is built in such a way thay every year the fee is reduced to some amount lower than the fee submitted in the first year. I am studying in the first year so i just have heard about this but not experienced it. Their is no difference in the fee structure of students who are in various categories. The only benefit you get is in the councelling where the students with categories will be prioritized to choose the college of their choice. Around the year students are provided with various oppourtunities for scholarships etc. for scholarship students need to achieve an equivalent score required to achieve that scholarship. Various aid of financial oppurtunities are also given to students by the government to the students for various purposesand activities.
