At IIT Bombay, various scholarships and financial aid options are available to support students based on merit, need, and specific categories. The Merit-cum-Means (MCM) scholarship is offered to students whose family income is less than INR 5 lakhs, providing a tuition fee waiver and additional financial benefits. SC/ST students receive a full waiver on tuition fees, and additional scholarships are available for students with a family income below certain thresholds.
MTech students receive a monthly stipend of INR 12,400 for two years, funded by the Ministry of Human Resource Development, after qualifying for GATE and securing admission. The institute also facilitates student loans through on-campus branches of SBI and Canara Bank, offering reduced interest rates and favorable repayment terms. Various private scholarships, alumni-funded scholarships, and government scholarships, including the National Talent Search Scholarship, are accessible to students. The total cost of education, including tuition, hostel, and mess fees, can reach up to INR 12 lakhs for a four-year program, but scholarships and financial aid significantly reduce this burden for eligible students.
