- Billing
The expenses of accommodation are included in the tuition fees itself. Other overhead expenses such as electricity bill*, newspaper charges and the like are included in the mess bill on monthly basis.
* Each student is alloted 93 units per month in Summer and 61 units per month in Winter. An electricity bill is charged only if the total electricity consumption is higher than the total free units for all the students in the hostel.
- Hostels
The accommodation facilities for students are entirely on-campus. There are ten hostels for boys and one separate hostel for girl students. The rooms in the hostels are equipped with modern furniture and attached bathroom. Freshmen and Sophomore students are provided shared accommodation with attached bathroom. Junior and Senior students are usually provided single rooms on merit basis. Since Topi has cold winters (with temperatures reaching -10 C), the rooms are centrally heated and running hot water is available during winter. Each hostel has an air conditioned common room. It has a television with a satellite receiver. The mess is run on a no-profit no-loss basis and a student mess committee regulates the weekly menu and the quality of the food.
- Parents Lodge
In view of the difficulties faced by the visiting parents/guardians for overnight stay, a Parents Lodge has been setup near the students' hostels. It is a five-room fully furnished and air-conditioned accommodation with a small kitchen and a common room-cum-dining hall. This accommodation is available to parents and guardians on first-come-first-serve basis on reasonable charges. Efforts are made to make their stay as comfortable as possible.
- Security
GIKI is one of the safest places in the country. It has its own security guards' team and is well barricaded. GIKI is a world of its own; and has peaceful conditions irrespective of the political conditions in the country.
