How is IIT Bhubaneswar Electrical as compared to other new IITs like Mandi, Indore, Hyderabad, Ropar, Gandhinagar, Dhanbad etc.?

The salary package has been going up and the number of companies visiting the campus has also been increasing.

Review of IIT ISM DHANBAD

Basically the fees structure of the IIT ISM Dhanbad is 1 lakh per semester is tution fees for general and OBC category. But fir sc/st it is free . Mess fee will be there for every category students it will be around 18000 per semester. Now at time of admission they take 5000 one time payment that is refundable after completion of course . Hostel fees will be 1000 per semester. And for all other facilities like library , lab fees , hostel facilities and sports facilities and others are around 5000 per semester so the fess will be around 1.25 lakh per semester. Now for economically weaker peoples college provide tution fees waiver. If family salary is under 1 lakh per year they provide 100% fee waiver on tution fee . If family income is above 1 lakh but below 5 lakh they provide 66.7% tutuoon fee waiver . After all these if someone need financial support college provide MCM scholarship for those whose family income is below 6 lakh and having cgpa of 6 and above . Many more scholarship are there for economically weaker people so it is easy to study in this college for every people without the burden of fees.

Honest review of IIT Dhanbad in 3 months.

2 lakhs is the fees paid per year for students of first year. Scholarships are available for students who have family income less than 5 lakhs. General, OBC category students dont have any fees waiver. Whereas SC/ST students have fees waiver. There is no such extra fees taken as development fees, lab fees or other compulsory charges. There is only tuition fees (2 lakhs/year ) and hostel fees (80k/ year)
