How the ROI calculator works
Enter your total fees and, if you like, hostel costs and an education loan. The tool starts from the NIRF median salary of ₹6,50,000 (change it to your own offer), takes the share of salary you can put aside, and tells you how many years it takes to recover the cost. Loan interest is added for the study years and repayment.
For example, total costs of ₹10 lakh at ₹6,50,000 a year, with 30% set aside, take about 5.13 years to recover.
Reading NIRF numbers the right way
The median is the middle salary of students who were placed, so half of them earned more and half less. It is not the highest package that colleges advertise. Students who chose higher studies or did not sit for placements are not in the median, and branch makes a big difference: computer science offers are usually higher than the median for the whole college.
