Fees and Financial Aid:

I think tuition fees is quite high . It should be less as it is goverment institution. Not only this college but all IIT's . My overall tution fees is 960000 for all 4 years and almost 2 lakh hostel fees. But good thing is that College provides scholarship for economically backward students . Campus placement is also good. , student secure a decent placement from there . Also you can secure high paying job if you have good skills in your respected domain.

Exploring Excellence: A Review of Mechanical Engineering in IIT Mandi

I am saying in simple words. total fee for one semester is around 1.5 lakhs. all fee is included in this. Like medical, tuition fees, mess, and hostel. The complete cost of B.tech in IIT Mandi is around 12 lakhs. There are some scholarships here that are provided by the organization and also Government scholarships. For the SC/ST and PWD categories tuition fee waiver is provided by Government. Also for OBC students if they have an income certificate, that is less than 1 lakhs, a tuition fee waiver is provided. A girl who has more than 7 CGPA has to submit zero tuition fees.
