**By Sakshi Sonal** RVCE provides residential accommodation through three hostel facilities — and a fourth PG-segregated arrangement for M.Tech and MCA students. Per the official [hostel facilities page](https://rvce.edu.in/facilities/hostel) and admission communications: ## Hostel Blocks | Block | Gender | Location | Notes | |---|---|---|---| | **RVCE Boys Hostel (Main Campus)** | Boys | On main campus | Multiple blocks; 24/7 security; Wi-Fi; common room; indoor games; mess (vegetarian + non-veg separate counters); RO drinking water; laundry; medical room. Contact: 080-68188256 / 080-68188271 | | **RVCE Girls Hostel (Main Campus)** | Girls | On main campus | 24/7 security with female warden; CCTV monitoring; Wi-Fi; common room; mess (vegetarian + non-veg); RO drinking water; laundry; medical room. Contact: 080-68188165 / 080-68188166 | | **Krishna Garden Hostel (Girls)** | Girls | Off-campus | Connected via dedicated shuttle (fee Rs 6,000/yr); 24/7 security with female warden; CCTV; Wi-Fi; common room; mess; RO; laundry | | **PG Mens Hostel (M.Tech/MCA)** | Boys | Separate block on/near campus | Reserved for PG students; Wi-Fi; 24/7 security; study hall; research desk space | ## Hostel Fees — Data Ceiling **Per-block and per-occupancy-type hostel fee schedules are NOT published on rvce.edu.in.** The [NRI BE Admission 2026-27 PDF](https://rvce.edu.in/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/1_NRI-Quota-for-BE-Program-Admission-2026-27.pdf) explicitly states hostel fees will be "informed later." Communicated directly upon admission via the hostel office. This is a site-level data ceiling — RVCE chose not to make hostel rates public — and is flagged in the v3 harvest postmortem. Candidates should call the boys hostel office (080-68188256/271) or girls hostel office (080-68188165/166) for current rates before accepting an offer. ## Hostel Booking & Allotment Process After confirmation of admission and tuition payment, students apply for hostel through the RVCE Hostel Office. Allotment is based on home distance + first-come basis + (for some blocks) gender + branch. Krishna Garden Hostel is allotted to girls when on-campus girls hostel capacity is exhausted; the shuttle is dispatched twice daily (morning + evening) on academic-day schedule. ## Facilities Standards (per hostel page) - Wi-Fi connectivity in all blocks - 24/7 manned security with CCTV (mandatory in girls blocks) - Female warden in all girls blocks - Vegetarian + Non-vegetarian mess (separate counters and dining) - RO drinking water in every block - Laundry / washing facilities - Medical room on call - Indoor games room - Study halls (especially in PG hostels) - Counsellor / Mentor system through Central Mentoring Cum Counselling Committee — see [Mentoring Committee PDF](https://rvce.edu.in/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/Central-Mentoring-Cum-Counselling-Committee.pdf) - Anti-Ragging Cell on hostel premises — per the [refreshed March 2026 Anti-Ragging Policy](https://rvce.edu.in/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Anti-Ragging-RVCE2.pdf) and 24/7 Women Helpline per the [office-Women-Helpline-11.7.25.pdf](https://rvce.edu.in/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/office-Women-Helpline-11.7.25.pdf) - Anti-Drug Committee (Nasha Mukt Bharath) coordination Last verified 16 May 2026.
