Vijaybhoomi University, Raigad

Vijaybhoomi University (VU) is a State Private University in Raigad district, Maharashtra, located at Jamrung near Karjat in the Greater Mumbai region. The university was originally established under the Vijaybhoomi University, Raigad Act, 2018 and is now governed under the Maharashtra Private Universities (Establishment and Regulation) Act, 2023.

Vijaybhoomi positions itself as India’s first Liberal Professional University, combining liberal education with professional programmes in engineering, business, design, law, music and allied health fields. Its current website shows 2026 admissions open.

1. Basic Information

The university’s current UGC proforma confirms that it is unitary in nature, has Maharashtra-wide territorial jurisdiction, and does not have constituent units or off-campus centres under the Act.

2. Location & Campus

Vijaybhoomi University is located at Jamrung, Karjat, in Raigad district, within the Greater Mumbai region. The university describes its location as a residential campus near Mumbai, giving students a campus-based experience away from the dense urban environment.

The university follows a residential and interdisciplinary model, with students studying across business, technology, design, law and music. The campus infrastructure includes specialised academic spaces, sports facilities, residential accommodation and dining facilities.

The campus also has dedicated facilities for its creative and professional programmes, allowing students to combine academic study with practical projects and extracurricular activities.

3. Admission Information

Vijaybhoomi University currently has admissions open for 2026. Admission requirements vary by programme, with the university using a combination of entrance tests, academic performance, interviews and programme-specific selection requirements.

• Check the programme-specific eligibility criteria.
• Complete the online application.
• Appear for the required entrance examination, where applicable.
• Participate in the Personal Interview or other selection process.
• Submit academic and supporting documents.

VUSAT

The university’s published admission framework identifies VUSAT – Vijaybhoomi University Scholastic Aptitude Test as its university-level entrance examination.

The university has also accepted recognised national/state-level examination scores for particular programmes, including examinations such as:

• MHT-CET
• PERA CET
• SAT

2026 Fee Structure

Vijaybhoomi’s current 2026 undergraduate fee document uses a credit-based fee model. The published minimum academic load is 40 credits per academic year, with the normal credit rate stated as ₹7,500 per credit. A registration fee and other charges also apply.

Because the university charges according to credits, Admission Katta should not simply enter one fixed annual tuition figure for every undergraduate programme.

Career Opportunities

The university’s overall model focuses on career readiness, interdisciplinary education and industry exposure. Programme-specific career outcomes should be evaluated separately because a B.Tech, BBA, B.Des, law or music graduate will have very different career pathways.

For Admission Katta, placement data should therefore be recorded school/programme-wise, rather than using a single university-wide placement number.
