Which Christ Fee Category Applies?

Christ uses the last seven years of study for its Indian fee categories. The Karnataka rate needs seven years of study in Karnataka; the other Indian states rate needs seven years in India. Christ checks the school records. A current Bengaluru address alone does not establish the Karnataka rate.

The NRI rate can also apply in the first year to a student who studied an approved foreign syllabus in India for the qualifying exam. In later years, that student may move to the other Indian states rate if they are not otherwise in the NRI category. Students who completed the qualifying exam outside India, or applied in the NRI category, pay the NRI rate for the full course. The exact condition is in the chosen course fee details.
