Maharashtra sets uniform fee for AYUSH colleges

The Maharashtra government recently approved a uniform fee structure for AYUSH colleges.

While open category candidates with an annual family income above Rs 8 lakh will have to pay course fee of Rs 65,400, SC, ST and those under MAHADBT scholarship scheme will have to pay Rs 8,000, with a complete exemption from paying tuition fees.

OBC-NCL and female students have been exempted from paying tuition fees, whereas male students will be charged Rs 36,700 per year.

For BNYS courses, open-category candidates will have to pay Rs 24,500 annually and those eligible for scholarships will have to pay just Rs 8,000.
