[Resolved]  Icfai Sikkim — Fraud, Cheating and non responsive

Address:Khordha, Odisha

Dear Sir,

I have enrolled for the distance course in MBA program under ICFAI University, Sikkim in the month of Sept 2011.
At the time of admission the then center head committed end number of things to me and my father.

Those are in a nutshell given below:

1. There will be full support / guidance to each and every student whenever they require.
2. There will be weekly classes to clear your doubts which may arise from the study materials.
3. The study materials will include text books as well as reference books.
4. Non-domain students can opt for classes in each week.
5. There will be no additional cost apart from the amount which we gave at the time of admission (P.N. we have given the total course fee Rs 57000 cash at once)
6. The center head personally attends each and every query regarding exams/ study materials/ etc.

Now, at this point i am really sorry to say that i am personally facing horrible issues regarding the course and facing regular problems.

1. This is for your knowledge that the Bhubaneswar Center is no more in existence. And the persons who gave us the list of commitments is not available any more.
2. As a non-domain student (B Sc Graduate), i am not able to understand the basic things of Accounts, Management and HR.
3. i have not attended a single classes which obviously due to non-arrangement of classes after several follow ups after my admission.
4. The reference books are given only in the first semester. Its told to me by the call center that reference will be only for 1st semester.
5. There is a Exam fees of Rs 500 for each paper which i came to know at the time of enrolling for exams. (they told us Rs 57000/- covers everything, seems the meaning of 'everything' is different in their dictionary)
6. I have appeared three papers in 1st sem, but it is not possible for me to score a decent mark without guidance or weekly classes.
7. I am getting thrashed from my family on daily basis that why i have selected such an institute which has closed its office after few months of admission.

When i contacted another student of MBA, he told me that the prev center head gave him a call center number and told that call there if anybody faces any problem. But Sir, do you really think calling a call center can we get our problems solved?
Can a call center executive address our problems regarding study?
Can he/she make us understand the subject and clear our doubts?
Would i have taken admission if i had to call your call center to get admitted in the course?
Why my father visited the office then if everything will be addressed by the call center?
Isn't there any difference between talking a person over phone and talking someone by person?
Now, Shall i continue the course or not? as i have paid the money and reading books which are going over my head.
What are the options left with me?


I have mailed the above details end number of times to the mail id given in the website, i.e. [protected]@iusikkim.edu.in but seems they even dont bother to reply a student!!! which is embarrassing and humiliating as well.

As i am now done with everything is there any way that i could get my money back? Pls Suggest as i m feeling helpless now.

Thank You

icfai me to koi student pass hi nhi hosakta inhe sirf 500rs chahiye ye sirf hame barbad kr rhe h ar harbar hame fail kr dete h plz aapse hm log ki life mat kharab kariye.
Guys this is an MBA course! I agree that proper guidance is important, but you need to work hard yourself to pass out the exams. I was in the same situation as you guys, but I buckled down and worked hard and passed all the modules in my first attempt (did get "C" in some subjects, but that was expected).

It's a MASTERs course and it is bound to be hard. You can not expect a university to make a MASTERs course easy... You should have known this when enrolling! No university will give you an easy path to masters degree. You guys can pass if you work hard and study hard.
