WorsT college

In our college they have collected around 35 thousands (35000) rupees as tution fees which is average but it is not worthy for the institution and infrastructure of the college the people of the college were very worst in behaviour and characteristics also the staffs are fine but many were like idiots who are very poor in general knowledge and value of time and money

Scholarships depend on departments of the college. If one student gets more marks, he or she will get a seat for aided. These aided seats cost around Rs 5,000 per year. Students can do self financing or apply for educational loan to decrease their program fee.
