Life as a Sikkim University student in the main campus, Yangang

Fees and Financial Aid:

First, I will start with the fee structure, so for every semester, you have to pay Rs 744 before the end-of-semester examinations. The admission fee that you need to pay is Rs 620. The hostel fees vary according to the categories. The SC and ST category people do not need to pay hostel seat rent fee, the other students have to pay 113and so on. Life may get monotonous but overall its good if you get adjusted here.

My Undergrad Experience at Sikkim University.

The fee was really cheap for my course. I had to pay around 2000 every even semester which means for the duration of 6 semesters I paid 6000 in total. There is a relaxation for fee for ST SC students residing in hostels. The hostels are cheap as well, they charge you around 5k a year and the monthly mess due varies but doesnt go beyond 2k. The provision for scholarships are available for marginalised communities and students coming from a weak financial background. Information about fees and scholarships is clearly mentioned in the Information bulletin and it gets updated every year.
