Ask Counsellor
VIT Vellore runs an extensive on-campus hostel system with separate hostels for boys and girls (Men's Hostels, Ladies' Hostel, the Pearl Block and others) on the Vellore main campus. First-year 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 ₹1,30,000-2,00,000 range inclusive of mess, with AC and premium-room blocks priced higher. Mess service includes vegetarian, non-vegetarian, Jain and continental options across multiple mess centres serving North Indian, South Indian, Continental, Bengali, Gujarati and limited international cuisines reflecting VIT's multi-state student presence. Wi-Fi, hot-water geysers, gymnasium access, study lounges, common rooms with TV, washing machines and CCTV-monitored entries are standard. Curfew is enforced strictly at 9:30-10:00 pm with weekend leave requiring written parental confirmation. The Vellore campus is approximately 130 km from Chennai with reasonable bus and train connectivity.
