 1. OUR PHILOSOPHY FOR HOSTELS:
MAHE, Bengaluru hostels are a mélange of different types of rooms to best suit the students
having varying requirements. There is a dedicated team of officials and workers to make the
stay of students comfortable providing an ambience of ‘Home Away from Home.’
The hostel environment is conducive for learning for students from all disciplines which
includes Engineering, Design, Management, Commerce, Law, Public Policy, and other Liberal
Arts programs and takes care of the housing, food, recreational and wellness of all students.
Many students from different geographical backgrounds study, mingle and play together
making it a vibrant campus at MAHE, Bengaluru.

Hostel accommodations are a valuable service that is provided to students pursuing UG courses, it is a
facility that is made available to those who meet certain criteria and fulfill specific requirements. The
provision of hostel facilities is based on factors such as availability, need, and eligibility. It is optional
and not compulsory. While hostels play an important role in providing temporary accommodation for
students, it is essential to recognize that access to hostels is not guaranteed for everyone, but rather
allocated based on various considerations and prioritization. We encourage local students to opt for
transport facility, provided by MAHE at cost.

All students are expected to abide by the rules and regulations defined by MAHE and other governing
bodies. Necessary undertakings have to be submitted by the students, parents, guardians as applicable.
We believe it is our joint responsibility to make the hostel and campus safe place for all.
