The results are announced in June, with counseling following a 1:4 candidate-to-seat ratio. Admissions are finalized online, and the academic year begins in late July. BHU's faculty is highly qualified, with a 1:10 faculty-student ratio, offering a blend of practical and theoretical learning, though some teaching methods are reportedly outdated. The course structure spans six semesters, with exams twice yearly. BHU's central funding ensures affordable fees, with annual tuition around INR 3,000 and semester fees of INR 425. B.Com (Hons.) fees vary, with top candidates paying INR 1,431 per semester and others up to INR 25,000 annually. Paid seats cost between INR 25,000-35,000. Total graduation costs, including hostel fees, are typically under INR 30,000. Scholarships are available, providing INR 4,000-30,000, often covering up to 90% of tuition fees. BHU also offers free transportation, Wi-Fi, and medical services. Placement opportunities for B.Com (Hons.) are moderate, with 20-30% of students placed, receiving packages between INR 3-9 lakhs annually. Top recruiters include TCS, Infosys, and banking firms.
