**overall_summary**: Admission to Bennett University, established in 2016, is primarily through the JEE-Mains exam, with merit-based options available for those with strong 12th-grade scores. The university is home to a distinguished faculty with former leaders from IITs, IIMs, and other notable institutions, such as Vice-Chancellor Dr. Raghunath K. Shevgaonkar and Dean of Engineering Dr. Suneet Tuli. The university charges an annual exam fee of 12,000 INR, with workshops and seminars enriching the academic environment.
Tuition fees for general courses start at Rs. 175,000 per semester, increasing to Rs. 180,000 in the third year. The total cost for a B.Tech degree, including tuition and hostel fees, is approximately Rs. 14 lakhs. Hostel fees are Rs. 90,000 per semester for double occupancy and Rs. 75,000 for triple, with annual increases. Scholarships are available, covering up to 50% of fees based on academic merit, though previously, coverage reached up to 75%. Bennett University's first graduating class saw impressive placements, such as a Software Development Engineer role at Microsoft with a CTC of INR 44L.
The average package is around INR 10 LPA, with the top 10% earning about INR 21 LPA. Though the highest package is listed as INR 1.37 Cr, it likely resulted from off-campus placement. Internships and industry interactions are strongly emphasized, with some students securing high-paying internships, like one at INR 4.2 lakhs per month. Bennett University offers scholarships based on various criteria, including 10+2 scores, JEE Mains percentile, SAT scores, and NEET scores for B.Tech Biotechnology.
Despite higher fees compared to other colleges, the potential for lucrative placements makes it a compelling choice for students.
