Great ROI with a few drawbacks

Currently, there's no separate financial assistance provided for any students as of now though loans are easily available during the registration process by SBI who set up their stall in the New Lecture Hall complex where registrations are conducted. The fee hike can be seen in mess fees, though no such hikes were seen in the course fees. It's one of the most affordable MBAs out there with fees below 4.5 lakh rupees hence most of the students studying here don't require financial assistance separately.

Course Curriculum Overview:

We had total four semesters in two years. In one year, we had two semesters. In the first year, we had all together 9 subjects and these subjects are common subjects. But in the second year, 7 are compulsory papers and 2 are elective or optional papers. Optional papers are major papers, not minor papers.

Fee Structure And Facilities:

The fee for my batch is 4.2 lakhs but because of this covid situation we got a good amount of refund and it costed around 3.8 lakhs. Regarding scholarships, in IIT we all get the regular central government schemes, the SC/ST students scheme, for specifically girls, merit cum scholarships. There are even scholarships some of my batchmates are taking where they have to pay no fee.

Preetish Raj Singh's Review On Department Of Management Studies, Indian Institute Of Technology (Indian School Of Mines), Dhanbad

There is an NCM scholarship but I only remember one NCM scholarship. It is given to every student whose father or family income is less than 4 lakhs or 5 lakhs rupees and in that total fee is exempt and the total fee is paid by the government of Jharkhand. That is one scholarship.The fee structure is very minimum costing 15,000 rupees. 15 thousand rupees for a semester. The fee structure is like 98,000 is the fees and 15,000 is the hostel. It cost 1 lakh 13 thousand per semester. Approx. 4 lakhs for general candidate. If you are an SC St candidate or reserved category candidate fee will be 20,000 per semester around so the total fees will be 1 lakh rupees for the course of MBA. Some companies came in summer internship from banking, marketing, insurance, airtel, coca-cola, every company you had there in an internship. And federal bank used to come regularly and it has a pretty good package and we gave preference to the federal bank, then coca-cola and companies like that.

Affordable Course fees with an amazing social life.

Fees are divided between the four categories of students and it's different for general students and even for economic background. But I am not sure about the name of the scheme as such. They provide admission based on their family income and the category status. Two-three of my batchmates have used this key based on their family background and to what remission that now the academic and tuition fees and the only payment that they are paying is only for the mess or the hostel and they the next, we will go to the campus. For economically background students and that are selectively based on their tasks in academic performance and that is semester wise only. Suppose, they want to avail it in second semester based then they have to show their first semester performance to avail the same policy. It is not entirely for the 2 years.
