The University application fee for admission to UG and PG programs is USD 90 (INR 7.8 K). This is not it, students must fulfill the eligibility by having a proof of high school completion for UG and a four-year bachelor's degree from a recognised university or equivalent for PG. Once they fulfill the eligibility, and submit the required documents, they pay application fees to the university to apply for their desired programs. (USD 1=INR 87.09)
