The overall review is good, there are some cons but the pros are there in higher quantity.

Student Snaps:

The fee structure for arts faculty is 1150 per semester which makes it 2300 per year. The fee is same for all the categories. There is no scholarship opportunities by the University but you can apply for scholarships under UP government.

Life at VCW (BHU)

As it is a college affiliated with BHU it follows its fee structure. My fee for the first year was around 10k; then, it was 9700 for the rest of my college years (2nd and 3rd year). This is also without practical, if you have practical subjects then your fee will also be higher. There are some scholarships for special-category students whose AE is less than 8k.

Banaras Hindu University - A reality Check

The fees is very affordable, it's about only Rs. 2300 per year, which is very less. The hostel fee for residing in only Rs. 4875 per year, which is, again, very affordable. But the mess fee is about 3000 per month, which is not so affordable. There are no other or extra fee than the above mentioned fees. The fees for all the categories in my course is same. Most of the students get UP scholarship here, around 8000 per year.

Throughout University

My course fee is semester wise categorised. On the time of admission and afterwards examination fees and semester wise. Scholarships are given to meritorious students and students with very weak financial conditions. Government schemes of any scholarship or any other facility is also entertained. Category wise fee also differ, not very much but it's a relief.
