My two years at CUG

The fee is absolutely minimum, as compared to many other institutes and universities. They also provide INSPIRE scholarship to the one student from every class that scores highest marks in the exams. Although the campus placement is not much great as compared to other institutes like IITs, IISER etc. But, the help and guidance from the faculty and seniors always helps.

CUG: As a Place

The fees asked from the university is moderate that people from all kinds of economic strata can pursue their desired coursed from here, and besides that there are also the relaxation for the unpriviledged categories as well which in turn also helps out the students a lot to pursue what they want to study in the university and go on in their lives, and it is good

Detailed review of Central University of Gujarat, Gandhinagar

The tuition fee is very affordable, it is charged once every semester. The exam fee is charged towards the end of the semester before the End-sem exams. The total cost of tution and exam fee and miscellaneous fees for the entire course upon my rough calculation amounts to ?12000. There are no scholarships for Master students that I know if, the university also provides minor aids and internship jobs for minorities or financially weak students. The university organises internships from different departments from time to time, each with it's unique academic or research opportunity.

An overview of central university of Gujarat

When I came here ... Fir first semester I paid 6000 and then for semester 2 I paid 1500 then for 3rd semester I paid 2500 and now I am persuing my 4 th semester in CUG and I paid only 1550. So college fee is very less If we talk about scholarship, I don't know properly because I don't get anything ( my financial background) but some scholarships are there. Hostel fee is also very less. Main problem is food, in gandhinagar Gujarat everything is costly, so around 4000-5000/ month will go in food. Placement cell is there in my university and a startup cell is also here which helps students in their ideas. So overall University is good.

Life at CUG

Fees are less, hostel fees are 600 per month but the girl hostel feels like a luxury it's a 1bhk flat kind of for every 5 girls, there is a kitchen in each room bathroom in the room along with a geyser for hot and cold water both, electricity is always there, lift etc and the hostel is situated in an IT park ( Infocity) so luscious greenery is present with the market area nearby, extremely safe environments for girls, as such Gandhinagar is such a place were cameras are installed on every road so women are safe. But do not expect any jobs from campus or on campus there are none being a central govt college, one can try for part times in the city for financial assistance but from campus its rare

Review of Central university of Gujarat

There is no such scholarship, financial assistance, and placement cell for students at the Central University of Gujarat. This need to be changed in the university. Universities need to give scholarships to poor students and make placement cells for students.
