VIT Bhopal a clickbait or real?

Student Snaps:

They conduct an exam and by the exam they filter out Students by the rank and those who had god a rank of <100 are probably considered as free admissions. Also my rank was around 50k and i had only 2 options to choose either VIT AP or VIT Bhopal,i preferred VIT Bhopal and my course is CSE(AIML) in category 1,there are total 5 categories in which students of category 2 pays a fee of 307000 and as the category increases the fee increases. This is a simple and brief brochure of tution fees paid by us. Hostel fee also varies in the same way as the facilities increases the fee increases.

A Five-Year Data Odyssey at VIT Vellore

When I joined the Integrated Mtech back in 2021, my fee structure was primarily determined by my category that I secured during councellung. My category is 2 that's around 1.6 Lakhs of tution fee. Caution fee is around 20k, admission fee around 10k. There are no other extra fee like lab fee or anythig everything that's related to academic will be included init and regarding hostel fee it varies from year to year and will be in between 90k to 1.40L. Regarding the categories there are 3 like category 1 with 96k per year, category 2 with 1.6L per year and category 3 with 2L per year. Regarding scholarships, if you are a district topper in rural school, the STARS scheme will cover your complete fee. There are many other scholarships but to avail them you should be top performer.

Is there a limit to the number of scholarships a student can receive at VIT Vellore?

VIT Vellore generally doesn't impose a limit on the number of scholarships a student can receive, but there might be some restrictions. If you qualify for multiple merit-based scholarships, VIT might consider the highest value scholarship and adjust the others accordingly to avoid exceeding the total program fee.
