My Undergrad Experience at Sikkim University.

Student Snaps:

Fees and Financial Aid:

The fee was really cheap for my course. I had to pay around 2000 every even semester which means for the duration of 6 semesters I paid 6000 in total. There is a relaxation for fee for ST SC students residing in hostels. The hostels are cheap as well, they charge you around 5k a year and the monthly mess due varies but doesnt go beyond 2k. The provision for scholarships are available for marginalised communities and students coming from a weak financial background. Information about fees and scholarships is clearly mentioned in the Information bulletin and it gets updated every year.
