Does IIIT Guwahati give any kind of fee waiver to its students?

Initially, IIIT Guwahati offered an 80% fee waiver for students belonging to SC and ST categories. However, from 2018 onwards there is no fee concession at all. 

• There are no scholarships based on income or other criteria as the college doesn't receive funds from the government.
• Needless to say, college certainly helps its students to obtain scholarships from the central government, state government, and other sources.
• The institute has an option to increase the batch size thereby earning more from the tuition fee and part of which could be used up for educational aid. But it is committed to maintaining an educational standard for which maintaining a good student-faculty ratio is necessary. 

Each and every student joining the campus from 2019 has to pay a yearly tuition fee of 2.25 lakhs along with the hostel fee of 25,000 and a mess fee of 4,000 per month. Thereafter tuition fee of 1.3 lakhs will be collected in the following years.

Fee Structure:

To sum up, there is no fee waiver or financial aid offered currently at IIIT Guwahati. You need to personally apply for some external scholarships or educational loans from banks as the management is struggling to get funding from the government.
