Dr. M.G.R. Educational and Research Institute Chennai B.Arch : Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The college offers an architecture program with 80 seats filled based on merit through the National Aptitude Test for Architecture (NATA), without donations, in a first-come, first-served manner. The annual fee is ₹1,80,000, including ₹90,000 per semester, which is lower than many other institutions. However, additional costs such as a ₹5,000 exam fee per semester and material expenses can add up over the program's 10 semesters. The faculty, mostly postgraduates and Ph.D. holders, are dedicated, providing extensive support to students in becoming industry-ready, though some suggest more engagement is needed. The course requires a mandatory one-year internship arranged by students, with no direct placement support upon graduation. Despite this, graduates find careers in architecture firms across various cities, teaching, or further studies abroad. The college has an internship cell that aids in training and project work with firms like SLL Architects & Associates and VPM Associates. Scholarships are awarded based on merit, performance in 12th exams, and circumstances like floods, but there are no loans or additional financial aid options.
