Partial or full scholarships are made available to those who deserve and to those who demonstrate academic and spiritual excellence during the 1st year. Students are responsible to pay for their own books, notes, study materials and other expenses.
FEES
We believe it is important for each student to bear a part of the cost of their own education. We offer free tuition and boardig for all. Scholarship offered towards mess fees covers about half to two-thirds of the total cost. Hence, scholarship students have to pay Rs. 400 - to Rs. 800/- a month towards Mess fee. Non-Scholarship students pay Rs. 1,000/- a month. Admission fee is Rs. 500/-
DISCIPLINE
Students, both male and female, are to conduct themselves as mature servants of Christ. A lot of our students would have had ministerial experience. However, if we have to discipline those breaking the rules we would do it appropriately.
