Since the authorities offer various UG, PG and Diploma courses from the field of management, science, humanities, technology, hotel management and education, the tuition fees vary for each course subject to the course duration and curriculum. The 1st year fees for each course include the one-time fee which need not be paid in the subsequent years. The B.Tech fee at CCSU Meerut is Rs 72,500 while the B.Ed fee is Rs 52,000 for the first year. On the other hand, the BBA fee is Rs 37,500 for the first year.
The students must note down that the other fees such as medical fees, library membership fees, admission fees, examination fees, lab security fees, development fees and other mentioned fees are over and above the tuition fees chargeable from the students.
