The university, established in 2009, admits students annually through the CUCET entrance exam, which combines board marks and CUCET scores to rank candidates. In 2015, a candidate with a 74.8% board score was ranked 14th during counseling and secured admission with a fee of 19,000 rupees. The faculty comprises alumni from prestigious institutions, with extensive research backgrounds, and each department has more than 10 faculty members. Semester fees range from 6,000 to 9,000 rupees, depending on the department. Hostel rent is 200 rupees per month, and mess fees are 2,300 rupees per month. While the fee structure, including a first-semester fee of 19,000 rupees, is moderate, it is considered feasible for most students. Placement opportunities are limited, with the MBA department offering the highest package of around 5 LPA. Though the Science department lacks a structured placement system, internships are available through institutions like IITs, NITs, and CSIR labs, albeit often unpaid and requiring interviews for selection. The university provides financial aid, including freeships for economically disadvantaged students and up to an 80% tuition fee waiver. Various state and central scholarships are accessible, including the "Prerarana" scholarship, granting ₹25,000 annually to OBC, SC, and ST students. While no loan facilities are available, the MSc Chemistry course costs ₹16,489, and state-specific scholarships are offered, particularly for Orissa residents.
