Fee assistance

Scholarships, Discounts & Offers

NNWA runs several ways to make a course more affordable: limited-time discounts, interest-free EMI (equated monthly instalment), zero-interest education loans and concessions for learners who need help. Offers change from time to time, so enquire with an NNWA counsellor to find out which discounts and payment plans are open now.

01What exists

What help with fees does NNWA offer?

Five routes, of which two are assessed individually and three are open to everyone.

  1. 01

    Merit-based assistance, in limited numbers

    NNWA (Nutrition & Wellness Academy) offers a limited number of merit-based fee reductions. They are assessed individually and are not a published discount.

  2. 02

    Need-based assistance, assessed case by case

    Where cost is the only barrier, NNWA assesses need-based support on the same limited basis. Ask before you enrol rather than afterwards.

  3. 03

    Interest-free EMI on every course

    The six-month Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics & Public Health is payable from ₹4,999 a month, and every other NNWA course carries its own instalment figure.

  4. 04

    0%-interest education loans

    NNWA offers 0%-interest education-loan options alongside EMI. A counsellor confirms the lender and the tenure before enrolment.

  5. 05

    Limited-time discounts on the published fee

    Course fees are introductory and periodically discounted. What is available on the day is confirmed by a counsellor rather than advertised as permanent.

02The arithmetic

What would you actually pay up front?

Read from the two programme documents. The seat deposit counts towards the fee rather than being charged on top of it.

NNWA publishes the name and qualifications of everyone who writes and checks its material. You can see the full teaching team on the faculty page.

Course pricing is where a lot of buyers get caught out, so this page tries to be useful in two ways. First, it explains exactly how cost support works at NNWA. Second, it explains what to check before you accept a discount on any course, here or anywhere else. The second part will save you more money than the first.

How cost works at NNWA

There are four numbers on the flagship Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics and Public Health, and they are all published.

  • The listed fee is 34,999 rupees.
  • The current offer price is 29,999 rupees.
  • The booking amount is 6,999 rupees.
  • Instalment plans start from 4,999 rupees a month.

Offers and concessions change through the year, and no standing percentage is published, because publishing one that was not always true would be worse than publishing none. So the honest process is this. Ask about the course you want, and the admissions team confirms what applies to it at that moment before you pay anything. The routes are set out on the fees and EMI page, and how instalments work in practice is explained in nutrition course EMI and instalments in India.

What about the short courses?

Per-course fees for the roughly 70 short specialisation courses are not published on the site, so no offer price is shown for them either. That means the only reliable answer for a short course is the one you get by asking about that specific course. You can browse them in the course catalogue and then ask what the fee and the payment options are before you commit. Anyone quoting you a short-course price from memory, including a well-meaning friend, may be quoting an old one.

What to check before you accept any course discount

This applies to every provider, not just this one. A discount is only worth taking if the thing being discounted is worth buying at all.

  • Check what the certificate is before you look at the price. A cheap certificate that nobody can verify is not a bargain. Ask who awards it and confirm that at the awarding body's own website.
  • Ask what the discounted price includes. Materials, recordings, mentor support and any assessment or certificate fee should all be named, not assumed.
  • Get the total payable in writing. Not the monthly figure. The total.
  • Ask what happens if you drop out. Find out before you pay, not after.
  • Confirm the offer with the provider directly. Screenshots and forwarded messages go stale, and third-party ads often quote prices that no longer exist.

Why is the total payable more important than the monthly figure?

Because the monthly figure is the number designed to feel affordable, and it hides two things: how many months you pay, and what you pay in total across them. A plan with a comfortable monthly amount and a long tail can cost more overall than a shorter one that feels harder. Work out the total before you compare two courses, then compare the totals. That single habit protects you from most bad course purchases.

Is a deadline-driven discount a warning sign?

Not automatically, but it deserves your attention even when the offer is completely real. Deadlines exist because they work on people, and a real deadline and a manufactured one look identical from the outside. The test is simple. Would you still want this course if the price never changed? If the answer is yes, the deadline changed nothing and you have lost nothing by thinking it over. If the only reason you are about to pay is that the clock is running, that is the pressure talking rather than the decision.

What questions should I ask before paying anything?

Ask which certificate the course carries and who awards it, what the total payable is under each payment route, what the booking amount is and whether it counts towards the fee, when the next batch starts, and what support is included after the classes end. Ask for the answers in writing. An NNWA counsellor will go through all of them at no charge and with no obligation to enrol, and will say if a shorter course would suit you better than the one you asked about.

One thing NNWA will not do

NNWA does not publish an interest rate or a loan arrangement on this page. Instalment options exist, and the admissions team confirms the exact plan for your course and payment route. If you see a specific financing claim quoted anywhere about NNWA, confirm it with the admissions team before you rely on it, because the plan that applies to you is the one they confirm in writing.

05Questions

What people ask about Scholarships, Discounts & Offers

Expand any question to read the answer in full.

Does NNWA have any discounts or offers running?

NNWA runs limited time discounts and concessions from time to time, and what is open changes through the year. No standing percentage is published, so the honest answer is to fill the enquiry form or contact NNWA to hear the current offer on the course wanted. A counsellor confirms it before any payment is made.

How can I reduce the cost of an NNWA course?

There are a few routes: limited time discounts and concessions when they are running, interest free EMI (equated monthly instalment) plans, and 0% interest education loan options. The Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics and Public Health costs 29,999 rupees, with EMI from 4,999 rupees a month. An NNWA counsellor sets out which route fits.

Is NNWA's EMI really interest free?

NNWA offers interest free EMI (equated monthly instalment) plans and 0% interest education loan options on its programmes. The exact plan depends on the course and the payment route chosen, so the terms should be confirmed with an NNWA counsellor before paying. On the Diploma, EMI starts from 4,999 rupees a month.

Can I get a concession on the NNWA Diploma?

Concessions and limited time discounts do apply to NNWA courses at various points, including the Diploma in Nutrition, Dietetics and Public Health. Nothing is guaranteed in advance and no fixed rate is published. Enquire about the course, and an NNWA counsellor will confirm what concession, if any, is open at that moment.

Do NNWA offers apply to short courses as well as the Diploma?

Offers and payment options can apply across the NNWA range, which includes the Certification in Nutrition, the Diploma, the Post Graduation Diploma, the Advanced Diploma in Personal Training with Sports Nutrition and about 70 short specialisation courses. What is running on a given course varies, so ask an NNWA counsellor about the specific one.

Still deciding which course fits?

A counsellor will look at your background and tell you honestly which programme fits, including telling you when a shorter, cheaper course is the better answer.
