GNDU Fees 2026
Based on the official GNDU prospectus and fee structures for the 2025-2026 academic session, below is a summarized overview of main course categories offered at the university. This focuses on general undergraduate (UG) and postgraduate (PG) programs in key fields, without detailing sub-specializations (e.g., no specific mentions like "Sports Nutrition" or "Textile Processing"). Programs are grouped by broad areas such as Arts, Sciences, Engineering, etc. Fees are approximate annual totals in INR for Indian students (excluding examination/practical fees; typically paid per semester). Foreign/NRI fees are generally 3-5 times higher (in USD, e.g., $1,000–$8,000 annually depending on the program). Fees may increase by about 5% for new admissions in subsequent years, and scholarships/waivers are available for eligible students (e.g., SC/ST, economically weaker sections, sports achievers). Always check the official GNDU website (gndu.ac.in) for exact details and updates.

GNDU Hostel Fees 2026
Guru Nanak Dev University (GNDU) hostel fees for the 2025-2026 session are categorized based on admission year: "Old Students" (admitted before 2023-24) and "New Students" (admitted from 2023-24, including 2025-26 entrants). Fees are the same for boys' and girls' hostels, with no gender-based differences in annual charges—only minimum monthly mess charges vary slightly. All fees are paid annually at admission (one-time for the session) in INR. Late joiners or mid-session exits may receive proportional reductions in rent and electricity. Refunds for surrendered seats: Full refund minus Rs. 1,000 processing fee if before possession; after possession, deduct monthly rent (rounded up) plus Rs. 1,000. Mess facility is compulsory for residents, with a refundable security. Additional fines apply for violations (e.g., Rs. 200-5,000 for misuse of facilities). Outstanding athletes in sports hostels get free accommodation. Orphans may qualify for full fee waivers (2 supernumerary seats per program). Hostels are limited; apply online via gndu.ac.in/hostel.
