A brief review of our university.

Student Snaps:

Fees and Financial Aid:

The admission fees for the first semester is 2430 rupees for Arts and for science it goes a little bit higher. According to me it's very affordable fees comparatively. All the tuition fees, caution fees and other charges are included in this. Admission fees is same for all categories. Students can avail all types of Central and State government or private scholarships.

My thoughts on our beloved Sidho Kanho Birsha University.

As a student of Sidho Kanho Birsha University, Purulia I can say that the fees is pretty much affordable. • The fees for the whole year is 6000/- for the two semesters of our masters program in chemistry. • The fees is almost same for all the courses in the university for the masters program ( Except the self financed courses). • The self financed courses have fees structure of near about 20000/- per semester. • The students of our university who are below the income range of 3lakh 80thousad get a scholarship called svmcm. Not for only our university all the govt universities students get this scholarship. • The scholarship give us 30000/- per year with some criteria. • Also the students from sc/st category gets extra support to carry out their studies. • Almost me and all my batchmates meet all the criteria and enjoy the scholarship for our studies. So I can say that our university is pretty much affordable and if one gets the scholarship then the masters program will be a joyful ride for him/her.

Help in any manner like financially and mentally.

Tuition fees is comparatively low as compare to other colleges and support the lower middle class students by percentage scholarship provided by college. They provides other scholarships like swami vivekananda scholarship which gives 25000 per students according to merit. Their are 3-4 clubs inbuild in college which i participated and performed well.
