B.Sc Biotechnology is run as a self-financed professional course and therefore costs more than the other B.Sc options. The complete fees for government-aided MA, M.Com and M.Sc programmes remain below INR 15,000 for two years.

The Agriculture faculty runs a four-year B.Sc Agriculture course and two-year M.Sc courses in Agricultural Economics, Horticulture and Agriculture Chemistry. Students in these programmes use the college’s working farm for practical field training, a facility not commonly available at degree colleges in the region.

Udai Pratap College Admission Process

UPCEE merit determines admission to most undergraduate and postgraduate courses at Udai Pratap College. The application charge is INR 700 for General and OBC applicants and INR 600 for SC and ST applicants.

UG Programmes: BA, B.Com and B.Sc

Applicants must meet the following course-specific conditions:

• A recognised board must have awarded the applicant a 10+2 or equivalent qualification
• BA requires at least 45% in any stream
• B.Com requires a minimum of 45%, with preference given to applicants who studied Commerce in 10+2
• B.Sc Mathematics requires a minimum aggregate of 55% in PCM
• B.Sc Biology requires a minimum aggregate of 55% in PCB
• B.Sc Agriculture requires 10+2 Science with Biology and at least 50% in aggregate

The UG selection process begins with an online application and payment of the relevant fee. Applicants then take UPCEE. After the merit list is issued, qualified students register for counselling and enter their course preferences. Seats are allotted according to UPCEE merit and category.

B.Ed Programme

Admission to B.Ed is based on the state-level UP B.Ed JEE. Lucknow University conducts this examination for the Uttar Pradesh government. Applicants need a graduation degree with at least 50%; the minimum is 45% for reserved categories. The state nodal authority completes seat allocation through centralised counselling.

PG Programmes: MA, M.Com and M.Sc

A relevant undergraduate degree from a recognised university is required for postgraduate admission. Depending on the subject, the minimum marks range from 45% to 50%. Students first register online and pay the application charge, then take the UPCEE PG entrance examination. A merit-based counselling round decides the final seat allotment.

Ph.D. Programmes

Ph.D. applicants are selected through the UPCEE Research Entrance Test and an appearance before the research supervisory committee. UGC or CSIR NET and JRF qualifications receive extra weight during the interview. Applicants who do not hold NET or JRF qualifications must pass the research entrance test.

Udai Pratap College Placements

Placement activity at Udai Pratap College is limited compared with professional institutions because its main fields are Arts, Science and Commerce. NIRF data for a recent cycle records placements for 45 students from three-year UG courses. Their median package was INR 3.50 LPA, while graduates of two-year PG courses received a median package of INR 4.00 LPA.

Many Arts and Commerce graduates prepare for UP PCS, UPSC, SSC and recruitment examinations conducted by IBPS, SBI and insurance-sector employers. Science and Agriculture graduates commonly move into M.Sc, Ph.D. or research programmes, while some Agriculture students enter state extension services.

B.Ed graduates seek teaching jobs in government schools through UPTET and CTET, as well as positions in private schools. Private-school recruitment mainly depends on the candidates’ own efforts. The college also holds occasional campus drives for B.Com and M.Com students, with participating employers drawn from regional banking, financial services, insurance and accountancy firms.

Udai Pratap College Campus and Infrastructure

Udai Pratap College operates from a 100-acre campus in Narayanpur, northwestern Varanasi. It is one of the larger single-campus autonomous colleges in the Varanasi area. Regular daytime courses and Distance Learning Centre programmes together serve 17,000 students.

The campus has an e-library supported by an integrated catalogue, a sports ground and a working Agriculture Farm. B.Sc and M.Sc Agriculture students use the farm for practical sessions. Departmental laboratories are available for Physics, Chemistry, Botany, Zoology and Mathematics, while computer laboratories support digital and computational work for B.Com, MA and Science students.

Working students and other learners who cannot attend regular classes can enrol in MGKVP-affiliated programmes through the Distance Learning Centre. The centre follows MGKVP’s distance education framework.

The institution is an Associate Member of the Association of Indian Universities. It also holds NAAC ’A’ Grade accreditation with a CGPA of 3.16, valid through May 2029. Its UGC autonomy was first approved in 1991 and remains extended through 2032-33. This status permits the college to prepare its own syllabi and hold internal examinations separately from MGKVP’s centralised examination timetable.

Udai Pratap College vs DAV PG College vs Harish Chandra PG College

Students considering degree colleges in Varanasi may compare Udai Pratap College with DAV PG College and Harish Chandra PG College. These institutions serve similar groups of applicants and provide comparable undergraduate and postgraduate options, although their affiliations and admission routes differ.

Among the three, Udai Pratap College has the largest campus and student community. Autonomous status gives it control over course design and internal examinations. DAV PG College has BHU affiliation and a higher NAAC grade, which may receive greater recognition from some employers hiring Arts graduates. Harish Chandra PG College provides a smaller academic environment. None of these colleges conducts large-scale placement programmes for Arts and Commerce graduates.
