Chandigarh University runs an extensive on-campus hostel system on its 200-acre Gharuan campus near Mohali. First-year B.E./B.Tech students are typically allocated triple-sharing rooms with double and single occupancy from the second year by seniority. Annual hostel and mess fees for 2025-26 broadly fall in the ₹1,40,000-1,90,000 range inclusive of mess, with AC blocks priced higher. Mess service includes vegetarian, non-vegetarian, Jain and Continental options across multiple mess centres serving North Indian, Punjabi, South Indian and limited international cuisines. Wi-Fi, hot-water geysers, gymnasium access, study lounges, common rooms with TV, washing machines and CCTV-monitored entries are standard. Curfew is typically 9:30-10:00 PM with weekend leave requiring written parental confirmation. The Chandigarh winter is cold (5-12°C December-January); warmer bedding recommended.
