IIT Kharagpur, a fresh start to your life!

For the first year, fees will be around 2 lakh for tuiton fees, hostel fees is around 30 thousand per year, mess fees is around 15 thousand per year. There is a one time payment when you complete josaa which is around 50 thousand, it gets deducted in your 1st year fees. Fees for SC and ST students is less than general, and there are many monitary benifts given to people with less anual income. If you are below 10 thousand rank for jee advanced, you can also get inspire scholarship which gets you around 60 thousand per year, for it to continue you need atleast 7 cgpa in the 1st year. The price for 1st year will be higher than the rest usually. There is also other charges like library charges which is included, hall mnagement charges, some deposit for hostel caution, etc.

Insights if IIT Kharagpur

Dislikes

Academic curriculum is tough and managing your academics and extra curricular activities at the same time, sometimes become very hectic.
Since curriculum is tough, you get really less time for doing other activities, which you want to do.

The year wise fee, is around 2.5 lakhs including hostel and mess fees. There are a number of scholarship provided by institution for economically weak or needy students. Those students want to opt scholarship can directly fill the form if they are merit for it. Fee structure remain same and does not increase.

"Life at IIT Kharagpur" by a sophomore.

The fee structure is very transparent and reasonable. Numerous scholarships are available for students helping them financially. The banks are also very supportive of students by offering education loans at lower interest rates. We do not need to work part-time.
