Paying heed to students' complaints, the University Grants Commission has directed varsities and colleges to refund full fees on cancellation being made by the first year undergraduate, postgraduate students for the academic session 2020-21.
“ln order to avoid financial hardship being faced by the parents due to lockdown and related factors, a full refund of fees be made on account of all cancellation of admissions/ migration of students, up to November 30, for this very session as a special case. To be crystal clear, the entire fees including all charges be refunded in totality (zero cancellation charges) on account of cancellation/ migration up to November 30,” the UGC notification stated.
Further, on withdrawal on admissions up to December 31, the varsities should refund the entire fee collected in full after deduction of not more than Rs 1,000 as processing fee.
However, it is to be noted here that these new guidelines are only for one year, after that the old terms and conditions will apply to such procedures.
