Hindu College

What is the fee structure at Hindu College?

The fee structure at Hindu College, New Delhi ranges from roughly Rs 86,010 to Rs 93,810 for the full duration of its flagship three-year undergraduate honours programmes in 2026, making it one of the most affordable government-funded colleges of the University of Delhi. As a Delhi University constituent college, Hindu College charges heavily subsidised tuition: a B.Sc programme costs Rs 93,810, while a B.Com (Hons) and a BA both cost Rs 86,010 for the entire course. Postgraduate programmes such as M.Sc, M.Com and MA are even cheaper, with two-year fees typically falling in the Rs 51,800 to Rs 55,952 band for 2025-2026. The figures below are the total programme fees an aspirant should budget for, before adding optional hostel and examination charges.

It is important to understand that at Hindu College the largest cost is rarely the tuition itself. Because the college is government-aided, academic charges are nominal and most of the published fee is made up of one-time admission, University of Delhi, and development components paid in the first year. Hostel accommodation, when availed, is a separate and often larger expense than the course fee.

Course-Wise Fee Structure (2026)

The table below sets out the programme-wise total fees at Hindu College for the 2026 admission cycle, the question most applicants ask first: "How much will my course actually cost?" It lists each programme, its duration, the indicative tuition component, the other one-time and annual charges, and the resulting total fee for the full course. Read the "Total Fee" column as the all-in academic cost across all years; the "Other Charges" column folds in University of Delhi enrolment, admission, library, and development fees that are bundled into the published amount. Postgraduate tuition is shown as an indicative range because Hindu College had not separately published every department's final 2026 PG amount at the time of writing.

The clear takeaway for 2026 is that the B.Sc at Rs 93,810 is the costliest undergraduate option at Hindu College, while the BA and B.Com (Hons) are identical at Rs 86,010, so an aspirant choosing between Arts and Commerce will see no difference in fee. All UG programmes admit through CUET (UG) and require a valid 10+2 result, while every PG programme (M.Sc, M.Com, MA) admits through CUET PG against a relevant bachelor's degree. For postgraduate applicants the headline message is value: two years of study costs less than a single year at most private universities.

Year-Wise Fee Changes

The table below answers a question parents repeatedly raise: "Are Hindu College fees going up?" It tracks the documented movement in fees across 2024, 2025 and 2026 using the clearest example available, the MA programme, alongside the current undergraduate position. Read the rows as year-on-year snapshots so you can see both the direction and the scale of any revision before you plan your budget.

The trend at Hindu College is one of modest, incremental revision rather than steep hikes: the MA fee rose from Rs 51,600 in 2024-2025 to Rs 55,952 in 2025-2026, an increase of roughly Rs 4,352 or about 8 percent, driven mainly by University of Delhi development and examination components. Undergraduate totals of Rs 86,010 (BA, B.Com Hons) and Rs 93,810 (B.Sc) have stayed broadly stable into the 2026 cycle. Applicants should still treat published figures as indicative and confirm the exact first-year payable amount on the official admission portal, since University-level charges can be revised each session.

Scholarships & Fee Waivers at Hindu College

Hindu College offers an unusually deep scholarship pool for a Delhi University college: the college administers around 23 scholarships and 19 prizes for undergraduate and postgraduate students, awarded on a merit-cum-means basis through its Staff Council scholarship, prizes and fee-concession committee. These awards can substantially reduce the effective cost of the Rs 86,010 to Rs 93,810 published programme fees for deserving students.

Named endowed scholarships at Hindu College include the Premvati Raghubir Singh Scholarship, the R.B. Ram Kishan Dass Scholarship, the S.P. Raina Memorial Scholarship, the Ganpat Rai Gopal Devi Merit Scholarship and the Bhagwan Sahai Chauhan Memorial Scholarship. Selection is based on academic performance in the last qualifying examination together with financial need, and students must apply on the prescribed form at the college office. The college also operates fee concessions for needy and meritorious students that directly lower the amount payable.

Beyond college-run awards, students from reserved categories benefit from government-norm relaxations. SC, ST, OBC, EWS and PwD students can claim fee concessions as per University of Delhi and Government of India rules, and most eligible students route central and state support through the National Scholarship Portal (NSP), including schemes such as the Top-Class SC scholarship. Stacking an NSP scholarship with a Hindu College merit-cum-means award can bring the net out-of-pocket fee well below the published figures.
