Yes, the B.Arch programme at RVCA is approved by the Council of Architecture (COA), the national body that regulates architecture education in India. A COA approved B.Arch degree lets you register as an architect after graduation.

At about ₹2.5 lakh a year, tuition for the full 5 year B.Arch at RVCA comes to roughly ₹12.5 lakh. Fees usually rise a little each year, and hostel, mess, drawing materials and study tours are paid separately, so plan for a higher total.
