Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) has announced a significant fee hike for the upcoming academic session, impacting undergraduate, postgraduate, and professional courses. The increase ranges from 16% to 41%, with social sciences, science, and professional programmes witnessing sharp rises.

Impact on Students:

Students are advised to plan their finances accordingly and explore scholarships or aid options where available.
