At AKS University, the fee structure varies between batches. The initial batch pays Rs. 40,000 per semester, totaling Rs. 80,000 per year, while subsequent batches benefit from a reduced fee of Rs. 30,000 per semester, or Rs. 60,000 annually. Additional costs include an exam fee of Rs. 2,500 per semester, with extra charges of Rs. 250 per subject if necessary. Approximately 60% of students secure job placements, with top recruiters being Infosys, NestlŽ, and CavinKare, primarily offering roles as food technologists.

Internships are not part of the curriculum, but B.Sc. students have opportunities to work in university labs, earning about ₹5,000 monthly.

Despite the emphasis on scholarships and financial aid, the institution appears to prioritize revenue collection, as reflected in its focus on timely fee payment.
