The admission process at Nirma University is managed by the Admission Committee for Professional Courses (ACPC) under the Gujarat Education Board, conducted online through a merit list. Special quotas exist for NRI candidates, and admission can occur in multiple rounds. The fee for the 2019 batch is Rs. 1,41,000, with additional bus transport costs of 8,000-10,000 rupees per semester. The university does not offer hostel facilities for undergraduates, leading to additional off-campus living expenses of around 1.5 lakh rupees, bringing the total annual cost for a student living in a hostel to approximately 3 lakh rupees or more.
Scholarships are available for outstanding students, providing amounts of 50,000, 90,000, and 100,000 Rupees based on merit and financial need. This year's placement rate is about 50%, with companies like Maruti-Suzuki, Tata Nano, L&T, and Bombardier participating in recruitment. Though the job packages are considered good, there is a noted decrease in placement percentage compared to previous years. The college also facilitates internships with reputed companies to help students align with market needs, although most internships do not offer stipends.
The mechanical department features highly educated faculty, most holding Ph.D. degrees, and they are accessible and supportive in career development.
