GLA University Online is dedicated to making high-quality online degrees affordable and accessible to all students. Although the university's Centre for Distance and Online Education (CDOE) does not offer traditional merit-based scholarships for online programs, it provides multiple financial aid schemes, upfront full payment discounts, and flexible interest-free EMI plans to minimize the tuition burden. Additionally, online programs are recognized by the UGC-DEB, enabling eligible students to apply for central and state government scholarship schemes.
The university offers support concessions and installment payment features to ensure education remains affordable:
| Concession Scheme | Benefit / Discount | Target Applicants |
|---|---|---|
| One-Time Upfront Payment | Special Concession | Students paying the complete course tuition fee upfront |
| No-Cost EMI Facility | 0% Interest | All students wanting to convert semester fees to monthly payments |
| Government Scholarships | As per government norms | Eligible SC/ST/OBC/Minority/General-EWS students applying via portals |
To ensure fees do not become an obstacle, GLA CDOE has partnered with leading finance houses to offer credit assistance:
Follow these instructions to claim fee concessions or set up monthly payment features:
Register on the portal and complete the application details. Let the counselor know if you plan to pay the full course fee upfront or need EMI support.
Upload color scans of required marksheets and identity proofs. The verification committee approves the records within 24–48 hours.
Once approved, choose the upfront full payment option (to gain tuition concessions) or set up the interest-free monthly installment plan via credit partners.
Prepare these documents to apply for government scholarship schemes or set up loan plans:
| Scheme Category | Required Documents |
|---|---|
| EMI & Loan Plans | Aadhaar Card, PAN Card, salary slip/income proof, and bank statements for the last 3-6 months. |
| Government Scholarships | Caste certificate (for SC/ST/OBC), domicile proof, income certificate issued by a competent authority, and university fee receipts. |
Compare the semester-wise tuition cost against the overall cost when choosing one-time payment options:
| Program | Total Tuition (Semester Payment Mode) | One-Time Upfront Payment Mode | Estimated Tuition Savings |
|---|---|---|---|
| MBA | ₹97,000 | ₹87,300 (Approx.) | ₹9,700 |
| MCA | ₹86,000 | ₹77,400 (Approx.) | ₹8,600 |
| BBA / BCA | ₹88,500 | ₹79,650 (Approx.) | ₹8,850 |
