How much does an education ad cost in the newspaper?
Classified text is charged per line, so a short admission or tuition ad is the cheapest option — the rate finder above shows the real figure for your paper and edition before you share anything, at official rates with a lowest-price guarantee. Classified display, which lets you carry your logo, a border and colour, is charged per sq.cm. Both are per insertion, plus 5% GST.
What is the standard education ad format?
An admission ad runs in one shape: institute name, the course or courses, eligibility, duration, the last date to apply, and a phone number or address. A tuition ad is shorter — subject, class or board, area, batch timing and a number. Send the details in any order, even as a photo of a handwritten note, and we set it in the paper's format and show you a proof before it prints.
I am a private tutor, not an institute — can I still give an ad?
Yes, and it is one of the most common bookings in this column. A three or four line classified under the education heading in your city's edition — subject, class, area, timing, number — is the cheapest print option there is, and it reaches parents in exactly the neighbourhood you teach in.
Which edition reaches the students I want?
A classified runs only in the editions you choose, and each covers specific districts, not a whole state. Because a student has to be able to attend, the edition covering your catchment usually beats a wider, costlier buy. Tell us where your institute or class is and we confirm the coverage before you pay.
When should an admission ad run?
Most institutes book around their admission window — when board results are out, when counselling starts, and in the weeks before the session begins. Weekend editions carry the heaviest education readership, and a run of two or three insertions across the window usually works better than one. We will map the dates for you.
When will it publish?
Most papers have a same-day or next-morning cut-off — book before the cut-off and it runs the next day. Weekend education pages book out earlier, so give yourself a day's margin. We confirm the exact cut-off for your paper and edition before you pay.
Can you write or translate the ad for me?
Yes — free. Send the course or class details in any language and we draft the matter, trim it to the paper's line limit, translate it into the paper's language — Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Marathi, Malayalam and more — and show you a proof before it prints.
How do I know the ad actually ran?
After publication you can view your ad in that paper's e-paper for the published date and edition, or buy a local copy of that edition. You also get a GST invoice for the booking, in your institute's name if you need one.
