The positives and negatives of VIT

Dislikes

Exams every 30 days causes increased and unecessary stress on the students
reletive grading system can sometime feel unfair since it emphasizes the competition among students

Fees and Financial Aid:

For an M.Sc in Applied Microbiology, I am currently paying Rs.80,000 per year. Scholarships are not available for the general category and hence I'm unaware of it. Apart from the tuition fee, there is minimal fees that need to be paid.
