Accommodation overview
First-semester hostel payments for 2026-27 are INR 45,600: hostel admission fee INR 1,200, establishment charges INR 7,200, licence, electricity and water INR 13,200 and a mess advance of INR 24,000. A refundable hostel deposit of INR 4,800 is charged once. Rooms are allotted by the warden, and residents sign in and out; the 2024-25 rules prohibit cooking and heaters, kettles and air conditioners in rooms.
Food & daily living
The mess serves breakfast 7:00 to 9:00 am, lunch noon to 2:00 pm, snacks 4:45 to 6:00 pm and dinner 7:00 to 9:00 pm, under the 2024-25 hostel rules, which allow no relaxation of timings. Complaints go to the warden. The institute publishes no menu or provision for specific regional, religious or medical diets.
Campus & lifestyle
The institute has worked from its permanent Sethurapatti campus on the Trichy-Madurai highway since June 2021. Its hostel page lists a residence hall, a mess hall and a gym. Before that it ran from temporary premises at NIT Tiruchirappalli from 2016 and at Oxford Engineering College from 2020, so older references to those addresses are out of date.
Safety & student support
The hostel rules treat ragging as a cognizable offence and encourage residents to report it immediately; admitted students also file an anti-ragging declaration. Boys' hostel residents must be back by 10:00 pm, visitors sign the book at the entrance, and emergency contact numbers are given at room allotment. The admissions pages give reporting instructions, a hostel accommodation form and a cancellation form, and link to the National Scholarship Portal notice for 2026-27. Admission does not guarantee a scholarship. Students Traffic counselling can help you compare routes and prepare documents.
