An honest review on the life of a hosteler in VIT Bhopal

It is a decent college but the curriculum is very strict and you are constantly bounded by the attendance criteria. Also if you opt for boys hostel it is a long walk to the academic block which you have to cover on a daily basis. The facilities in the hostel are pretty decent but lacks a good wifi connection and you often have to use your own mobile data to do daily work on your system.You can opt for this college if you are into studies.

All to know about VIT Bhopal which YouTube won't tell you

I'm a student in VIT university Bhopal. I'm paying an annual fees of 2 lakhs pr year as tuition fees and beside that 2.15 lakh as hostel fees. I got CSE branch in VIT in category 1st . However many of my friends are paying 4 to 5 lakh for the same course here andalso the hostel fees. VIT doesn't provides any such merit based scolarship . Your rank in VITEEE exam devides your academic fees which will vary in between 2 lakhs to 5 lakhs for all kind of courses.

VIT Vellore, detailed review for freshers

I was in category 5, so I had to pay tuition fee of 5 lakh and I opted for 2AC hostel room which is a bit on the higher side at around one lakh fifty thousand a year. They take a caution deposit of thirty thousand but it is refundable at the end of your course. There is no reservation for any caste based reimbursements. Category 1 pays the least with just 2 lakhs of tuition fee per year. It is worth mentioning that after 1st year everyone is allotted rooms in accordance with their grades, so the hostel rates vary.

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.
