This is a two year course. Total 4 semesters will be there.Regular mca and cost sharing mca is being provided by the university. For regular mca fee structure is 20000 per semester(30000 a year) and for cost sharing mca it is 40000 (80000 a year). Both regular and cost sharing students will be in the same classroom itself. The only difference between both of them is just the change in fee structure. We shall apply for various national level scholarships according to our mark. Pretty good amount can be received as scholarship then.
