MDSU MCA : Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

Ans. The total fee for the 2-year MCA programme at MDSU Ajmer is INR 33,500, payable as INR 17,050 in Year 1 and INR 16,450 in Year 2. Hostel charges are not included and are optional. The fee is paid annually at the start of each academic year. As a state public university, MDSU offers MCA at a fraction of the cost charged by private institutions in Rajasthan, making it highly affordable for eligible candidates.

Ans. No, MDSU does not require any entrance exam for MCA admission. Candidates are shortlisted on the basis of their qualifying graduation aggregate percentage. A merit list is drawn up after the application window closes, and shortlisted candidates are called for document verification and counselling at the MDSU campus. This makes MDSU’s MCA admission one of the most accessible routes for BCA and B.Sc Computer Science graduates in Rajasthan.

Ans. Yes, graduates of B.A. or B.Com with Mathematics as one of the studied subjects are eligible to apply for MCA at MDSU, provided they have secured at least 50% aggregate marks in graduation. This broadens the pool of eligible candidates beyond BCA and B.Sc Computer Science graduates. However, students without any Mathematics background at graduation level should verify with the university whether they meet the specific subject eligibility criteria before applying.

Ans. For the 2026-27 session, MDSU accepted MCA applications from 19 June to 1 July 2026. Document verification and counselling were held on 3 July 2026, and fee payment closes on 7 July 2026. Candidates who missed the 2026-27 window should monitor the official MDSU website for the next session’s notification, as dates typically follow a similar June-July cycle each academic year.

Ans. MCA graduates from MDSU can pursue careers as software engineers, system analysts, database administrators, web developers, and IT project coordinators. Government recruitment bodies like RPSC and Staff Selection Commission include IT-related posts that MCA holders are eligible for. Many graduates join IT service companies in Rajasthan or move to cities like Jaipur, Pune, or Bengaluru for corporate roles. MCA also qualifies holders to apply for lecturer posts in government polytechnic and degree colleges in Rajasthan.

Ans. MCA students at MDSU can apply for the Rajasthan Post-Matric Scholarship for SC/ST/OBC/MBC/EBC students, the Raj Scholarship which covers full tuition fees for SC/ST students, and the Need-cum-Merit Scholarship offered by the university. Applications for government-funded scholarships are submitted through the Rajasthan Social Justice and Empowerment Department portal. The university’s internal scholarship is awarded based on academic performance and financial need at the time of admission into the programme.
