Shivaji University Kolhapur MCA : Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The MCA course requires candidates to have a first-class degree in BCA/BCS or another graduation with mathematics or statistics. Admission is based on an entrance exam and merit list. Most faculty are qualified and supportive, though some lack the necessary expertise for complex subjects. The college charges a main fee of 70,000 INR, but offers scholarships like EBC, OBC, and caste-wise to reduce costs. The annual fee is around 28,000 INR for the first two years and 12,000 INR in the final year due to a six-month internship, making it affordable compared to other colleges.

Multinational companies such as TCS, Infosys, and IBM visit for placements, with average packages ranging from 5 to 7 lakh INR. Although not the top choice for placements, companies like Rhealtech and Clickit offer opportunities, with stipends of 15,000 INR and 6,000 INR, respectively. The college does not directly provide internships, but students can choose their own, and university open campus opportunities are available. Financial support includes student loans and earn-and-learn programs, but scholarships are not available for open category students, while others may receive concessions based on eligibility.
