Financial Assistance

We know that many of our students, coming as they
are from middle and lower- middle income group,
need some sort of financial assistance to meet their
educational expenses. And your University goes a
long way in helping the students in this regard.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Concession in Fees

The tuition fee here is probably in the lowest rung of all. Yet concessions in fees, in terms of full and half- freeship, are awarded to needy and meritorious students of the day- courses on the recommendation of the departments. Provision is there for covering a maximum of 10% of students with full- freeship. After due notification by the Dean of Students, application forms are issued, at the beginning of the session, from the Information Office.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stipends

We have a lot of internal stipends including those sanctioned by the DPI office. Stipends are awarded on means-cum-merit basis. For students quite a number of endowments have been made with the University by some generous persons from which nearly 80 stipends can be distributed among the needy ones, one – fourth of which may possibly go to the 1st year students.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

National Scholarships

Some might have earned the National Scholarship on the merit of their results at the ‘Madhyamik ‘. These scholarships are expected to continue as one pursues undergraduate courses. For that he/she should pick up a renewal form from the Scholarship Section and submit it to the DPI office at Bikash Bhavan, Calcutta-700091. For further information you may contact the Scholarship Section of the University.

Students Aid Fund

This fund raised by the Students from their own contributions and supported by matching grants from the University is disbursed by Students’ Union among the applications from Students of the Faculty. The amount is not fixed and may vary from person to person depending on their individual need. Besides this, financial assistance is also provided to the students coming form economically backward families from the Students Aid Fund out of Refundable Deposits.
