How can I get admission in BHU through a paid seat?

Sapna Malik updated
Alok TiwariStudied at Banaras Hindu University

To know how to get admission to BHU through a paid seat, you must first know what exactly a paid seat is.

Every year BHU conducts entrance exams during the months of April, May and June. After this, the university releases the cutoff list. The students who fail to reach the cutoff but are just slightly below it are offered paid seats. 

The admission process of both regular and paid seats is the same. A call letter will be sent for counseling.

The biggest drawback of paid seats is that the fees are extremely high compared to the regular ones.

Does BHU offer admission only to Hindus?

Admin

For years, there's been a doubt lingering among Indian students. Is BHU for Hindus and AMU for Muslims? Though both universities might include Hindu and Muslim in their names, they welcome students from all walks of life. Candidates belonging to any caste and religion can pursue higher education in BHU. 

The university was solely established to promote learning and research generally in Arts and Sciences in all branches and to advance and diffuse such scientific, technical, and professional knowledge, combined with the necessary practical training to promote indigenous industries and to develop the material resources of the country. Moreover, the university also reserves seats for certain minority-category students.
