Fees and Financial Aid:

The amount as fees that is payable depends on whether the student is a day scholar or a hostel resident. If one falls in the former category then the message and hostel charges gets deducted which is almost 30000- 35000 less than the latters fees. The amount of fees paid increases as the year of study increases. As far as I know there are no such scholarship available. I in my third year paid Rs. 175000 as my total fees. However, students do get low interest rate loans that is made available by the Bihar Government. The interest rates are very nominal. Recently, a drive was also conducted whereby, certain category of students were provided laptops and some fee reimbursements.

Fees and Financial Aid:

Chanakya National Law University is currently a good place to pursue a law degree from. The quality of teachers and facilities available is increasing with the new administration in place. The overall fee structure is increasing every year, however, it is still less when compared to other NLUs in the country. The infrastructure available and the location of the campus amidst the city make it easier to pursue the degree. For my year, the overall fees was 207450, with the incoming batches, the fees will increase. This includes the hostel fees, mess fees, tuition fees, cultural fees, development charge, infrastructure development charge, and student welfare fund. For students not opting for hostels, the fees would be comparatively less. There are a host of scholarships available. Through the portal of National Scholarship Portal, one can apply for different scholarships. There are other state-based scholarships as well. Seniors are very encouraging and helpful in guiding juniors when it comes to scholarships. Most of the scholarships are based on the annual family income of the student.
