FEE REFUND POLICY
The university fee refund policy typically outlines conditions for refunds based on the timing of course withdrawal or cancellation. If a student decides to withdraw or cancel their enrollment, the eligibility for a refund will depend on when this action is taken. Generally, students are eligible for a full refund if they withdraw within the first few weeks of the semester or term. After this period, the refund amount may decrease, with no refund granted after a certain deadline, especially if the student has attended classes for a significant portion of the term. Special circumstances, such as medical emergencies, might allow for exceptions.
Refunds are usually applicable to tuition fees and accommodation fees. However, accommodation bookings involve a non-refundable amount of ₹10,000 at the time of booking. This amount will not be refunded, regardless of whether the student cancels or withdraws. Activity fees may also be refundable depending on the timing of the withdrawal, but lab/equipment fees are generally not included in the refund process. The university may also have different conditions for international students, especially related to visa statuses or specific program requirements.
To apply for a fee refund, students must fill out the designated refund request form and have it approved by the higher authorities. The process generally involves submitting the form along with any required documentation to support the reason for the withdrawal. Refunds are typically processed within a few weeks, but this can vary depending on the institution. Refunds are usually issued via bank transfer, check, or credited back to the payment method used, such as a credit card.
It’s important to note that certain fees are non-refundable, such as application fees, non-refundable accommodation booking amounts, and late payment fees. Furthermore, students who receive financial aid or scholarships should be aware that the refund policy might impact the amount of funding they receive or owe. Before making a decision to withdraw, students should consult with the registrar or academic advisor to understand any potential impact on their academic standing or future enrollment.
