Fees and Financial Aid:

The fees is divided in semesters, there are four semesters in this course and per semester tution fees is around 200000, which makes the total course fees for all four semesters to be around 800000 and the university provides scholarships also for that you have to give the lpunest exam and if you score good marks in that you can get scholarships of 30% to 50% of your tution fees, as i got a scholarship of 38% which helped me to reduce my per semester fees to around 125000 from 200000. Most of the students studying in the university has availed their scholarship. The university doesnt provides scholarship on the basis of reservation, they provide it on the basis of merit instead which helps the deserving students to study with affordable tution fees.
