Should you pick PGDCA at Raj Narain College?

This course suits graduates from any stream who want office computer skills in one year and can study in Hajipur.

Pick it if:

You hold a degree in arts, science or commerce: PGDCA takes graduates from all three streams, so you do not need a computer degree to apply.

You want office computer work near home: Hajipur is across the Ganga from Patna, so you can look for jobs in Patna offices after the course.

Your degree is from BRABU: you do not pay the migration fee, which only students from other universities pay at admission.

You want a low-cost computer course after your degree: the full course costs INR 13,425 with the exam fee, for one year of study.

Skip it if:

You want a campus job after the course: the college gives no placement figures for PGDCA, so plan to find jobs on your own.

You are a girl expecting the low fee of regular courses: PGDCA is a self-financed course, so girls pay the same fee as boys.

You are counting on a safe test score: BRABU has not published any cutoff for this course, so prepare as if every seat is open.

You plan to work full time during the course: the college needs 75% attendance in classes before you can fill the university exam form.

In short

Patna Women's College charges INR 36,565 more for PGDCA and has 15 seats, and it admits only women. If you are a woman who wants to study in Patna and can pay more, look at it; if the fee matters, take Raj Narain College.

In short

Magadh Mahila College lists a PGDCA tuition fee of INR 23,760, against a course fee of INR 12,000 here, and it admits only women. If you are a woman in Patna, ask for its full fee first; if not, Raj Narain College costs less.

In short

The university department in Muzaffarpur charges a course fee of INR 20,000, which is INR 8,000 more than here. If you live near Muzaffarpur, keep it as an option; if you live in Vaishali, take Raj Narain College.

In short

The Agra institute costs INR 4,210 more and has 10 fewer seats. If you plan to study in Bihar, take Raj Narain College; look at Agra only if you already live in Uttar Pradesh.

Fees and pay can change. Check each college site before you decide.

FAQs on Raj Narain College PGDCA

Straight answers to what students ask before they decide.

Is PGDCA at Raj Narain College worth the fee?▾

Yes, if you want a low-cost computer course after your degree. The full fee is INR 13,425 for one year, and that includes the exam fee. The college publishes no placement figures, so the value comes from the skill, not from a campus job. Plan your own job search before you join.

What job can I get after this PGDCA?▾

Students usually look for office computer work, such as data entry, accounts software or computer operator posts. The college publishes no average pay for this course, so nobody can promise a salary. Look for jobs in Patna offices across the Ganga, and keep your typing and software practice strong.

Who should not take PGDCA here?▾

Skip it if you need a campus job at the end, or if you cannot attend classes regularly. The college publishes no placement data for PGDCA, and it needs 75% attendance before you can fill the exam form. If you work full time, look for a distance course instead.

Should I take PGDCA now or wait a year for an MCA?▾

Take PGDCA now if you want a job skill in one year at a low fee. An MCA takes two years and needs its own admission test, so it is a bigger step. If you plan an MCA later, PGDCA still teaches you the computer basics first.

Is this course right for me if I studied arts or commerce?▾

Yes. PGDCA takes graduates in arts, science or commerce, so you do not need a computer or science degree. The BRABU entrance test decides the seat, not your stream. Prepare for the test well, because no cutoff is published to aim for.

Is it safe to count on a seat if my test went well?▾

Not until the result comes. BRABU has not published any cutoff for PGDCA, so nobody knows the score that gets a seat. Keep a second option ready until you see your college allotment on the Samarth portal.

Is the batch size good for learning?▾

The prospectus lists 40 seats, which is a small batch for a computer lab. A small batch can mean more lab time for each student. Visit the computer lab before you pay and ask how many computers are in use.

Is Hajipur right for doing this course?▾

Yes, if you live in Vaishali or near Patna. Hajipur is across the Ganga from Patna, so offices and computer training centres are close. If you need a hostel, ask the college first, because it publishes no hostel fee for PGDCA.

How do I get admission to PGDCA here?▾

Apply on the BRABU Samarth portal in the vocational admission window, which was in Jun 2026 this year. Download the admit card and sit the entrance test. If BRABU allots this college to you, report with your original papers and pay the fee.

Do girls pay a lower fee for PGDCA?▾

No, not on this course. The low fee for girls applies to regular courses, and PGDCA is a self-financed vocational course, so girls pay INR 13,425 like boys. Girls from SC, ST, BC or EBC families can still apply for the post-matric scholarship.

Which scholarship can cut my PGDCA fee?▾

The Bihar post-matric scholarship can pay back up to the full INR 13,425. SC and ST students need a family income up to INR 2.5 Lakhs, and BC and EBC students up to INR 3 Lakhs. Apply on the state PMS portal with your income and caste certificates, and use the calculator above.

Should I check that PGDCA will admit a batch this year?▾

Yes. BRABU held the PGDCA entrance test on 24 Sep 2026, but the college intake page does not list PGDCA seats this year. Call or visit the college office before you pay anything, and confirm that the batch will start.
