Amity University is known for its high education costs, being at least twice as expensive as other private institutions in India, with an annual fee of approximately 72,000 INR. Despite the high fees, the university provides modern facilities like 24-hour high-speed Wi-Fi and air-conditioned classrooms. However, teaching quality has been a concern, with students often relying on self-study rather than classroom instruction. Attendance of over 75% is mandatory, encouraging students to attend primarily for compliance.
Placement opportunities have been criticized, especially at the Lucknow campus, although efforts to improve have been noted. Currently, only about 10% of students secure jobs through campus recruitment, with companies like Google, HCL, Trivium, and IMARC participating. The average salary package is around Rs. 2,40,000. Final-year students can apply for placements but must finish a non-teaching research curriculum before commencing work. Amity offers various scholarships, primarily for high-achieving students, with the UP scholarship aiding economically disadvantaged students.
Notably, a 100% scholarship for one semester can reduce the first year's fee to 34,000 INR. However, on-campus job and placement opportunities remain limited for certain courses.
