Dharwad's best college review

Firstly in our college total fee structure is 24000 for every course or combinations . In the 24000 we have to pay 8000 rupees for university and rs 10000 rupees for building maintenance ,ground maintenance, guest faculty fees, co curricular program charges, NSS camp charges, medical aid charges, sports kit charges and etc .., In this college mainly get 80% reservation for the Christian peoples and other religions or castes get 10% reservation. In the whole course we have to pay 1200 rupees for exam fees and 1200 for admission for every semester. If we delay to pay the fees we have to pay penalty of 500 to 700 rupees for university and college also. In every academic year we get around 35% of college fees reimbursement from scholarship called SSP from State Government of Karnataka according to their reservation of caste and religions

CUK is worthy or not

As Iam a UG student currently Iam in my UG final, I have been paying nearly 8000 per each semester. The fees includes reg., admission, lab, tution, caution, sports, medical, foundation, etc. My friends of other category pay different amount. I dont avail any scholarship here, still its available for all eligible students.

Comparing other central universities, CUK is moderately fine.

In Central Universities fees are usually somewhat high compared to state college (governement). In Central University of Karnataka, the fee structure for MSc. Applied Geography and Geoinformatics for OBC annually including sem exam is ?22840. Scholarship opportunities are available for all. But I didnt get any scholarship.
