Mithibai College is in Mumbai, Maharashtra. It was set up in 1961 and is a private institution. This page pulls together what the college has on record — courses, fees, admission route, placements and rankings — so you can size it up in one read instead of opening six tabs.
Choosing a college is mostly a question of fit, and fit is specific: the branch you want, what it costs your family, how you get in, and what people who finish it end up doing. A brochure answers none of those honestly. What follows is drawn from Mithibai College's own submitted record, with the gaps left visible rather than filled in.
Where a college sits matters more than students expect. Mumbai shapes which companies visit for internships, what living costs on top of fees, how far you are from home, and what there is to do on a weekend. Mithibai College has been running since 1961, which usually means an alumni network worth something in that region.

What you can study at Mithibai College
Mithibai College runs 6 programmes. If your subject is not in that list, this is not the college for you — however good its overall reputation.
| Programme | Duration | Total fees |
|---|---|---|
| Bachelor of Arts | 3 years | ₹37,630 |
| Bachelor of Commerce | 3 years | ₹37,630–₹1.6 lakh |
| Bachelor of Science | 3 years | ₹43,900–₹3.1 lakh |
| Bachelor of Mass Media | 3 years | — |
| Bachelor of Business Management | 3 years | ₹1.4 lakh |
| Doctor of Philosophy | 3 years | ₹92,000–₹99,000 |
Those totals are for the whole course, not per year, and they cover tuition. Hostel, mess and one-time charges are billed separately, so ask for the all-in figure before you compare colleges — two institutions quoting similar tuition can differ by lakhs once residence is counted.
Fees are also the part most reduced by things you may already qualify for. Category concessions, income-linked waivers, institute merit scholarships and national schemes on the National Scholarship Portal all apply to tuition, and they stack more often than families assume. Work out your number after those, not before.
What students earn
The highest package on record is ₹12.9 lakh. The college has not reported an average package here, which is the first thing to ask for. Placement figures across Indian higher education are self-reported, so treat them as a guide and ask for branch-wise numbers rather than the college-wide one.
It is also worth asking what "placed" counts. Some colleges report the share of students who registered for placements rather than the whole batch, which is a very different denominator. And a package is a cost-to-company figure, not take-home — the gap between the two is usually substantial once you subtract variable pay and benefits.
How it ranks
Mithibai College's best position on record is #7 from Outlook in 2024, and it appears in rankings across 4 years here. Rankings measure different things — a government ranking scores research and outcomes, a magazine survey leans on reputation — so read which agency gave the number, and look for your stream's rank rather than the overall one.
It is also worth knowing what a rank does not tell you. Ranking frameworks score an institution as a whole — research output, faculty ratios, funding, perception — and none of that describes the department you will actually sit in. A college ranked in the eighties overall can have one outstanding department and several ordinary ones. If you can find the stream-wise table, and the college's position across a few consecutive years rather than a single one, you will learn more from that than from any headline number. A steady position over five years says something; one good year does not.
Is Mithibai College right for you?
No page can answer that, but these four checks come closest, and each has its own tab above with this college's own figures behind it:
- The branch, not the college. Teaching and placements vary a lot between branches on the same campus.
- The all-in cost. Total fees plus hostel and living expenses, minus any scholarship or category waiver you qualify for.
- The admission route. Which exam, when it is held, and what rank has historically been enough.
- A visit if you can manage it. Go on a working day. Photographs are chosen; a campus in use is not.
One more thing worth saying plainly: a college is not a verdict on you. Students do well from institutions far down every ranking table and badly from institutions at the top of them, because what you do across three or four years matters more than the name on the certificate. Use the numbers to rule out places that clearly do not fit, then choose from what is left on the things you can actually live with — the branch, the cost and the distance from home.
