KU publishes this figure without stating which year it applies to, so it may already be out of date. Treat it as a starting point and check the course page for the current rate. Flag it below if you know it has changed.

From Kathmandu University's own "Notice regarding Fee Structure for UG Program in Science and Engineering" (a School of Science / School of Engineering notice originally published 2017-07-18, still the live linked fee schedule when last checked). The page's own "Normal Course Fee" is the TOTAL cost of the whole programme (4 or 5 years), not a per-year figure. Note 2 on the same page states: "Course fee for students from SAARC countries is 1.5 times the normal fee. For students from other than SAARC countries, the course fee is 2 times the normal fee." This record uses the non-SAARC international multiplier (2x); a SAARC-country applicant would instead pay 1.5x. On top of the course fee, students pay a refundable NPR 10,000 caution deposit, NPR 1,000/year medical insurance, and a one-time admission fee of NPR 127,000 (Engineering/Architecture/Pharmacy) or NPR 126,000 (other programmes).

Accommodation

NPR 15,000per month

Kathmandu University's own hostels at the Dhulikhel central campus: the stated cost per student of a hostel place taken together with a meal package, for local and international students alike, as published by KU's School of Education in its study-procedures guidance. It is a single all-in figure, not a rate card - KU publishes no price per room type.

The figure is quoted as an all-in on-campus cost: the hostel place plus a meal package, which students choose from a set of options, so food is inside the number rather than on top of it. Rooms are shared with a roommate by default, with an individual room available instead; hostels are run for both male and female students, and international students are given single accommodation in the guest house inside the university premises. The same page puts the figure at roughly US$120 a month. Nothing is said about utilities, laundry or internet, and no separate price is given for a single room versus a shared one. For students based in the Hattiban area rather than Dhulikhel, the same page puts a privately rented single room at US$50-130 a month and a two- to three-bedroom flat shared with a roommate at around US$150-200.

Published by the university itself, not a live listings price. Actual cost depends on room type, availability and when you apply.

On-campus accommodations with meal packages will cost you around Nrs, 15,000 per student per month (which is around 120 USD per month). The university provides hostels to the students (both boys and girls). International students are provided single accommodation at the guest house within the university premises.”
