Questions & Answers
Ask a question →Answered from this college’s verified records — published fees and accreditation. Not written by students. How we verify data.
- What is the annual fee at University of Mysore?
- For a seat allotted through KEA counselling the notified fee starts at ₹20,000 per year (Karnataka GO 2025-26, MBA — government, university and aided courses). That is the government-quota figure and it depends on the college's type, not on the college itself — a management-quota seat in the same course typically costs several times more, and only the college can confirm that one.
- Is University of Mysore accredited?
- Our records show NAAC grade A+, UGC recognition, NIRF rank 20 in State Public University. The institution was established in 1916. Accreditation status changes — confirm the current position with NAAC or the college before relying on it.

- University of Mysore filed placement figures with NIRF itself. Its highest median salary is ₹7,75,000 for UG 4-year in 2023-24, from 4 of 8 graduates placed, and 3 other programmes are on this page.
