Dhaanish Ahmed College of Engineering does not give a common 100% scholarship to everyone. However, it gives some government and private scholarships that can fund a substantial part of the tuition fees for the eligible candidates, particularly the SC/ST students, first-degree graduates, and economically weaker sections. For instance, SC/ST students who are admitted under TNEA counselling can get up to 40,000–70,000 per annum as tuition fee, which could cover the entire or majority of the tuition, depending on the course. There are other scholarships that are merit-based or need-based, but full 100% coverage is not available for all.

In addition to tuition, students must pay a refundable caution deposit of INR 10,000 in the first year and a non-refundable admission fee of INR 25,000 at the time of counselling. Hostel accommodation is optional and is charged separately at INR 80,000 per annum for non AC rooms and INR 1,75,000 per annum for AC rooms. All undergraduate fees (including ancillary charges such as examination, laboratory, library, and development fees) are fixed at admission and remain constant for the batch; refunds are only possible within one month of joining, subject to a INR 10,000 deduction.
