A university’s real strength shows up in what it is willing to publish, not just what it claims. RNB Global University in Bikaner stands out on that count: it names actual students on its placements page, with actual companies and actual packages attached, rather than only quoting an aggregate average. That kind of transparency is worth noting before getting into the rest of the details.
RNB Global University (RNBGU) was established by Act No. 20 of 2015, passed by the Rajasthan Vidhan Sabha and notified by the State of Rajasthan on 27 April 2015. It is recognised by the UGC, meaning its degrees carry full national validity, and it holds a NAAC A grade with a score of 3.19 out of 4, which the university states is the highest among state and private universities and colleges in Western Rajasthan. Law programs are approved by the Bar Council of India, and the B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture program is accredited by ICAR. RNBGU is also a member of the Association of Indian Universities.
Bikaner is a royal desert city in northern Rajasthan, known historically for its forts, havelis and a slower pace of life compared to Jaipur or Delhi. For students, that translates into a genuinely low cost of living and a calmer environment for focused study, though it is worth being upfront that the city is smaller and less commercially connected than a metro hub, a trade-off some of the university’s own students mention candidly in their reviews.
The RNBGU campus sits on Ganganagar Road, spread across roughly 300 acres, and is built around a green, Wi-Fi-enabled, largely eco-friendly design that includes a solar power installation and rainwater harvesting. The campus houses 7 schools: Arts and Social Sciences, Engineering and Technology, Agriculture, Basic and Applied Sciences, Commerce and Management, Computer Science, and Law, alongside a growing School of Pharmacy.

RNBGU’s UGC recognition establishes it as a legitimate degree-granting university. Its Law programs carry Bar Council of India approval, a mandatory requirement for BA LLB and BBA LLB degrees to be professionally valid, and its B.Sc. (Hons.) Agriculture program is separately accredited by ICAR, the Indian Council of Agricultural Research. The university has picked up a run of award recognitions in recent years beyond the standard regulatory approvals: ASSOCHAM’s Best University in Rural India (2018), The Economic Times Best Education Brands award (2017), the Global Education Conclave’s Best Private University in Western Rajasthan for Research and Innovation (2023), the World Education Congress Award for Higher Education (2023), and the Indian Glory Awards’ Best University of the Year (2024).
PhD programs run across three broad groupings: Commerce and Management, Law and Arts, and Basic and Applied Sciences, with both full-time and part-time tracks. A dedicated PhD course-work scheme, fellowship policy and set of PhD regulations are published on the university’s Research and Incubation section.
Across all three levels, RNBGU offers close to 30 distinct programs, with particular depth in Commerce and Management, Law, and Agriculture, the last being a specific strength given the ICAR accreditation.
Class 12 completion from a recognised board is the baseline. Entry routes vary by program:
Postgraduate degree in a relevant discipline, followed by the university’s PhD entrance process and an interview, governed by the published PhD Regulations and Fellowship Policy documents.
Important Note: All eligibility details listed here are indicative and can change between admission cycles. Confirm current specifications directly through the official RNB Global University admissions portal before applying.
Step 1: Application Form and Registration.
Apply through admissions.rnbglobal.edu.in. Fill in personal and academic details and pay a one-time non-refundable enrolment fee of approximately Rs. 10,000 to lock in the seat once selected.
Step 2: Entrance Exam Score Submission.
Submit the relevant score (JEE Main, NEET, CUET, CLAT, LSAT, CAT, MAT, NMAT, CMAT or ATMA depending on the program), or register for RNBGU’s own RBFST if you have not appeared for a national exam. RBFST performance also feeds directly into the scholarship slab.
Step 3: Counselling or Interview.
Shortlisted applicants go through program-specific counselling, where scholarship eligibility is discussed and confirmed against the published slab structure.
Step 4: Admission Confirmation.
Confirm the seat by paying the balance of the tuition fee by the deadline mentioned in the offer letter, and submit original documents for verification. Early enrolment matters here specifically: the Early Bird Scholarship offers Rs. 10,000 off tuition for enrolling by 30 April, dropping to Rs. 5,000 by 15 May and Rs. 1,100 by 30 May, and it can be combined with any other scholarship the student qualifies for.
The Training and Placement Cell runs structured pre-placement training, live industry projects with companies including Deloitte, ICICI and Bikaji, and a summer internship program with stipends typically between Rs. 10,000 and Rs. 15,000 per month. In 2025-26, roughly 70% of students who secured internships converted them into pre-placement offers. See the dedicated Placements page for named student outcomes, package figures and the recruiter list.
RNBGU runs one of the more granular scholarship structures in this set, with slabs S1 through S12 covering board merit, entrance exam percentile, siblings studying together, students from four specific nearby villages, girl students, defence personnel and their wards, sports achievement, financial need, and an early enrolment bonus. See the dedicated Scholarships page for the full slab-wise table.
Genuine placement transparency. RNBGU publishes named students with real companies and real package figures on its own site, a level of openness that is rare among private universities and worth taking at face value rather than treating with the usual scepticism reserved for aggregate placement claims.
A verifiable NAAC A grade. Unlike some peer universities still “pursuing” accreditation, RNBGU already holds and openly documents its NAAC score.
Deep agriculture specialisation backed by ICAR. The BSc (Hons.) Agriculture program’s ICAR accreditation is a specific, checkable credential that distinguishes RNBGU from generalist private universities that only offer agriculture as an afterthought.
A granular, published scholarship system. Twelve distinct scholarship types, each with explicit percentage slabs and renewal conditions, give applicants a genuinely clear picture of what they can expect to pay rather than a vague “scholarships available” line.
A calmer, lower-cost campus environment. Bikaner’s slower pace and lower living costs suit students who want to focus without metro-city distractions and expenses, though this is a real trade-off against big-city networking access that some student reviews mention directly.
Q1. How do I apply to RNB Global University?
Visit admissions.rnbglobal.edu.in, register with your academic details, and pay the one-time enrolment fee once your seat is confirmed. Submit your relevant entrance exam score, or register for RNBGU’s own RBFST if you haven’t appeared for a national exam, since RBFST performance also determines your scholarship slab.
Q2. Is hostel accommodation available?
Yes. RNBGU provides on-campus hostel accommodation with security and transport support as part of its residential infrastructure.
Q3. Can I get admission with an average entrance score?
Yes, most programs admit through a mix of Class 12 merit, RBFST, and national entrance scores, so an average score will not disqualify you outright. It will place you in a lower scholarship slab (S3 or S4 rather than S1 or S2), so check the published percentage brackets on the Scholarships page to set realistic fee expectations.
Q4. What placement package can an average student realistically expect?
The university’s own published examples show BBA and MBA graduates in Marketing landing in the Rs. 7.6 to 7.8 LPA range with a recurring recruiter (Property Pistol), while the highest reported package for 2025-26 was Rs. 27 LPA. Treat the Rs. 7 to 10 LPA range as a more realistic planning benchmark for well-prepared Commerce and Management graduates, and the higher figures as outcomes for a smaller number of students. Full detail with named examples is on the Placements page.
Q5. Is the RBFST worth preparing for?
If you have not appeared for a national exam relevant to your program (JEE, CUET, CLAT, LSAT, CAT, MAT, and so on), yes. RBFST is the university’s own qualifying and scholarship-linked test, and performing well on it can place you in a 75% or even 100% tuition scholarship slab depending on the program.
RNB Global University’s clearest strength is verifiable transparency: a documented NAAC A grade with a published score, BCI approval for Law, ICAR accreditation for Agriculture, and a placements page that names real students, real companies and real packages rather than only an aggregate figure. Combined with a granular, publicly posted scholarship structure covering everything from sibling discounts to early-enrolment bonuses, applicants get an unusually clear picture of both cost and outcome before committing.
It suits students who want a calmer, lower-cost campus experience in a Tier 3 city, are drawn to RNBGU’s particular strength in Commerce, Management, Law and Agriculture, and value being able to check the university’s claims against its own published documentation rather than taking marketing copy on faith. The main honest trade-off, raised directly in the university’s own published student reviews, is Bikaner’s smaller-city location compared to a metro hub. Confirm current fee and placement figures directly with the university’s admissions office before making a final decision.
