Campus accommodation and dining arrangements should be discussed together when obtaining a room quotation.

Tell the university about allergies, religious food requirements or other dietary needs before accepting an accommodation allocation.
The university publishes anti-ragging arrangements, an Internal Complaints Committee, a student grievance committee and anti-drug committee. Its student counselling service provides a support route for personal concerns. Confirm current contact details and the appropriate complaint channel at orientation; named services do not guarantee an individual safety outcome.
Admissions teams assess category documents, qualification marks and programme preferences. The university publishes student counselling and grievance channels, an Equal Opportunity Cell and scholarship categories including merit, merit-cum-means, sports and Walk-in-Walk-out. Scholarship applications are invited after classes commence and remain subject to selection and current rules.
