Once the relevant program has been worked out and you have shortlisted two or three top contenders, it is time to figure out the actual costs of pursuing the program in each of the schools.
The university websites provide fairly decent information, including prospective scholarships and internship opportunities, but for any questions about actual overall expenses, don’t hesitate to reach out to and follow up with the institution. You can use the scholarship functionality on GyanDhan to get a sense of the net cost and apply for scholarships. Talking to alumni to get the student perspective will help. Also, you need to keep in mind that different locales have different costs of living which could impact the net out-of-pocket expenditure.
