B.Tech Fees

Hello Venu Madhav, It is a myth when one feels that a student can go abroad for an engineering study with low tuition fees that too in a good institution. Studying abroad is always costly even if the student takes up part-time job which is allowed. Parents still have to shell out a substantial amount of money for sustaining the studies of their children. You have received a quite good percentile in the January edition of JEE Mains. I suggest in the next one and half months if you study little further and a little focused for improvement in your percentile then the chances of your getting seat in one of the NIT is will improve substantially. I feel NIT is the most suitable for you to study with low fees. However, if you are still inclined to pursue the option of studying abroad I would advise you to approach agencies dealing with sending students for graduation in engineering abroad to know about the finances involved in the whole process. After this you can take your decision. Best wishes to you.
