Education Essence

Per semester fees excluding hostel was INR12,500 back in 2007. The overall fees for entire 4 year degree was INR 1,00,000 till 2011. However the fees has increased over the years. Not sure about the scholarships offered currently.

Excellent education, unforgettable memories

My fees is 62500 is the tution fee and 40500 is the hostel fee for 1st semester and admission fees is 22400. So the yearly fees is around 2 lacs.for other category like sc and st their tution fees is 0 and rest the same and for other category ews for whose family income is less than 100000 tuition fees is 0 and whose family income is between 1to 5 lacs their tution fee is half and rest is same. scholarship for students is that they can register to national scholarship portal for scholarship on basis of their performance.
